...LOW WATER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 7 PM THIS EVENING TO 1 PM
EST MONDAY...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A LOW
WATER ADVISORY...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 7 PM THIS EVENING TO
1 PM EST MONDAY. 

STRONG WESTERLY WINDS IN THE WAKE OF THIS MORNING'S ARCTIC COLD
FRONT WILL CAUSE WATER LEVELS TO DROP TO AROUND 2 FEET BELOW
NORMAL TONIGHT AND INTO MONDAY. SINCE NORMAL ASTRONOMICAL LOW
TIDES WILL BE AROUND ZERO, OR SLIGHTLY BELOW ZERO, THE COMBINATION
WILL RESULT IN WATER LEVELS BETWEEN MINUS 2 AND MINUS 2.5 FEET
MEAN LOWER LOW WATER AROUND THE TIMES OF LOW TIDE.

THESE LOW TIDES COULD CAUSE SOME NAVIGATION PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY
AROUND INLETS AND IN BAYS AND OTHER SHALLOW SPOTS.

MARINERS ARE URGED TO TAKE ALL NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS FOR LOW
WATER LEVELS. MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH SLACK IN LINES TO ALLOW
FOR LOW WATER...AND WATCH OUT FOR SHALLOWER DRAFTS.
