...HIGH WIND WATCH IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH
THURSDAY MORNING...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A HIGH
WIND WATCH, WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH
THURSDAY MORNING.

* WINDS...NORTHEAST TO NORTH AT 20 TO 35 MPH WITH GUSTS OF 50 TO
  60 MPH. SOME WIND GUSTS COULD EASILY REACH 65 MPH, MAINLY ALONG
  THE COASTAL AREAS.

* THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION, ESPECIALLY FOR THE
  AREAS THAT WERE HARDEST HIT BY LAST WEEKS STORM.

* TIMING...THE STRONGEST WINDS SHOULD OCCUR FROM ABOUT NOON WEDNESDAY
  THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING, WITH THE HIGHEST WINDS OCCURRING
  CLOSER TO THE COAST.

* IMPACTS...STRUCTURES AND TREES WEAKENED BY LAST WEEKS STORM MAY
  BE FURTHER DAMAGED BY ANOTHER ROUND OF HIGH WINDS. THIS CAN
  ALSO RESULT IN RENEWED POWER OUTAGES, PARTICULARLY IN AREAS
  WHERE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM REMAINS IN A WEAKENED STATE. DEBRIS
  FROM LAST WEEKS STORM COULD BECOME A HAZARD DURING THIS NEW
  STORM, ESPECIALLY IF IT IS LIGHT ENOUGH TO BECOME AIRBORNE.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A HIGH WIND WATCH MEANS THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A HAZARDOUS
HIGH WIND EVENT. SUSTAINED WINDS NEAR 40 MPH, OR GUSTS OF 58 MPH
OR STRONGER CAN LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE
LATEST FORECASTS. IF POSSIBLE, NOW IS THE TIME TO BRING IN OR
SECURE OUTDOOR ITEMS THAT COULD BE BLOWN AROUND IN THE STRONG
WINDS.
