COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT
Warning Issue Date: 418 AM CST MON NOV 30 2009
COASTAL FLOODING POSSIBLE ON TUESDAY FROM GULF STORM...
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS STILL FORECAST TO FORM ALONG THE COLD FRONT
THAT MOVED THROUGH SOUTHEAST TEXAS LAST NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED
TO BEGIN DEVELOPING TONIGHT OVER THE LOWER TEXAS COAST AND WILL
LIKELY LEAD TO STRENGTHENING NORTHEAST AND EAST WINDS OVERNIGHT AND
EARLY TUESDAY MORNING OVER OUR AREA. THIS MAY RAISE WATER LEVELS ENOUGH
TO CAUSE COASTAL FLOODING OF LOW LYING AREAS...ESPECIALLY AROUND TIME
OF HIGH TIDE TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
IT REMAINS UNCERTAIN ON HOW QUICKLY THIS GULF STORM WILL DEVELOP...
AND HOW QUICKLY IT WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA. THIS WILL IMPACT THE
DEGREE OF WATER LEVEL RISE. STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES ON LATER
STATEMENTS...AND ANY WATCHES...WARNINGS OR ADVISORIES SHOULD THEY
BECOME NECESSARY.
