La Tormenta Tropical Erin se pronostica que pasará al noreste de nuestra área; sin embargo, aún se esperan condiciones marinas y costeras peligrosas. El oleaje alcanzará entre 8 y 12 pies en las aguas expuestas del Atlántico y el Pasaje de Anegada desde la noche del sábado hasta el lunes, acompañado de un alto riesgo de corrientes marinas fuertes a lo largo de las playas con orientación norte y este. Estas condiciones harán que nadar, surfear y las operaciones de embarcaciones pequeñas sean peligrosas. Se recomienda a todos los residentes y visitantes evitar entrar al agua y mantenerse atentos a las actualizaciones oficiales.
Tropical Storm Erin is forecast to pass northeast of our area; however, hazardous marine and coastal conditions are still expected. Seas will range from 8 to 12 feet across the exposed Atlantic waters and the Anegada Passage from Saturday night through Monday, accompanied by a high risk of strong rip currents along north- and east-facing beaches. These conditions will make swimming, surfing, and small craft operations hazardous. All residents and visitors are advised to avoid entering the water and stay alert to official updates.
Although Erin’s forecast track remains at a safe distance (~200+ miles), residents and visitors should remain alert for dangerous seas, rip currents, and possible flooding from heavy rain. Safety measures include staying out of the water, securing small craft, clearing drains and gutters, and keeping a Go-Kit ready. It is also important to follow local emergency management guidance and stay informed, as more details on seas and rainfall will be available in the coming days. Early preparation can save lives.
