A coastal Flood Advisory remains in effect until 10 am EST this
morning.

... High threat of rip currents through 8 PM north of Cape
Lookout...

The combination of high astronomical tides and lingering easterly
swell will produce minor coastal flooding across portions of
Onslow and Carteret counties during the morning high tide. High
tide in the ocean will occur around 6 am and in the back bays and
tidal creeks around 9 am. Areas to be affected include affecting
low-lying areas at the beaches... near marshes and tidal creeks...
and also along tidal portions of rivers.

Water will rise into areas that only rarely experience flooding
without a storm. Vehicles parked in these flood-prone areas
should be moved to higher ground. If traveling this morning... pay
close attention for water covering the Road. Never drive through
water of uncertain depth.

A lingering east swell of 5 to 7 feet will produce rough surf and
a high threat of rip currents along the beaches north of Cape
Lookout through Monday.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A coastal Flood Advisory indicates that onshore winds and tides
will combine to generate minor flooding of low areas along the
shore.

Rip currents are strong... narrow channels of water that flow out
to sea. If you become caught in a rip current... remain calm. Try
to swim on a course that is parallel to the beach until you get
away from the rip... then swim at an angle in to shore. Do not try
to swim back to shore directly against the rip... since it can
exhaust and even kill the strongest swimmer.

... Dense fog advisory remains in effect until 8 am EST this
morning...

Saturated ground cover from recent rains combined with light winds
over the region have developed areas of dense fog across eastern
North Carolina. The fog will be widespread and dense with
visibilities dropping to 1/4 mile or less at times. The fog will
begin to lift shortly after daybreak.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A dense fog advisory means visibilities will frequently be
reduced to less than one quarter mile. If driving... reduce your
speed... use your low beam headlights... and leave plenty of
distance between your vehicle and those around you.
