Weather Alert

This product covers CENTRAL AND EASTERN VIRGINIA...NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA...AND THE LOWER MARYLAND EASTERN SHORE

**ERIN MOVING AWAY FROM THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST**

NEW INFORMATION
---------------

* CHANGES TO WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- All watches and warnings have been canceled

* CURRENT WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- None

* STORM INFORMATION:
- About 390 miles east-southeast of Ocean City MD or about 440
miles east of Norfolk VA
- 36.8N 68.2W
- Storm Intensity 100 mph
- Movement Northeast or 50 degrees at 20 mph

SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------

Hurricane Erin, currently about 420 miles ENE of Cape Hatteras, NC,
continues to move northeast away from the coast. Erin will continue to
move northeastward with the center of the storm tracking well offshore
of the Mid-Atlantic coast. The tropical storm force wind threat has
come to an end for the local area with Erin moving further away.

Erin will continue to bring high surf, significant dune and beach
erosion and moderate to locally major tidal flooding to the area. Seas
of 12 to 18 feet over the coastal waters remain possible this evening
into tonight which will allow for significant beach and dune erosion
for the coast especially around the times of high tide. In addition,
moderate to locally major coastal flooding is expected during the high
tide cycle this evening and tonight with inundation of 1 to 3 feet
above normally high ground. A Coastal Flood Warning remains in effect
for the Atlantic coast from Corolla, NC to Ocean City, MD, areas
adjacent to the Chesapeake Bay from Windmill Point south, tidal
portions of the James, York, and Rappahannock Rivers as well as
adjacent estuaries. A Coastal Flood Warning is also in effect for
areas adjacent to the Chesapeake Bay north of Windmill Point through
the bay side of the lower Maryland Eastern Shore, and the southern
shore of the Potomac River, as well as adjacent estuaries.

POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------

* SURGE:
A Coastal Flood Warning remains in effect for areas along the Atlantic
coast, Chesapeake Bay, and tidal rivers.

* OTHER COASTAL HAZARDS:
Along the Atlantic coast from Fenwick Island Delaware to Duck North
Carolina, expect waves to build to 12 to 18 ft today. These large
waves combined with increased water levels will likely allow for
significant beach and dune erosion. There is a high risk of rip
currents along the shoreline through Friday, and a high risk of rip
currents will likely continue into the weekend.

* WIND:
Little to no additional impacts are anticipated at this time.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------

* EVACUATIONS:

Follow the advice of local officials.

* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:

If you are prone to coastal flooding or ocean overwash be prepared for
the possibility of a quick rise in water levels.

Closely monitor weather.gov, NOAA Weather Radio and local news outlets
for official storm information. Listen for possible changes to the
forecast.

* ADDITIONAL SOURCES OF INFORMATION:
- For information on appropriate preparations see
www.readyvirginia.gov, readync.org or mema.maryland.gov
- For the latest weather and storm information go to
weather.gov/wakefield

NEXT UPDATE
-----------

As it pertains to this event...this will be the last local statement
issued by the National Weather Service in Wakefield VA regarding the
effects of tropical cyclone hazards upon the area.

Weather Alert

...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 AM EDT FRIDAY...

* WHAT...North winds 15 to 25 kt with gusts up to 30 kt and waves
2 to 4 ft.

* WHERE...Chesapeake Bay from Drum Point MD to Smith Point VA,
Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA and
Tangier Sound and the inland waters surrounding Bloodsworth
Island.

* WHEN...Until 6 AM EDT Friday.

* IMPACTS...Conditions will be hazardous to small craft.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller
vessels, should avoid navigating in hazardous conditions.
