Prepare for significant wind damage. - ACT: Move to safe shelter before the wind becomes hazardous. - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant - Some damage to roofing and siding materials, along with damage to porches, awnings, carports, and sheds. A few buildings experiencing window, door, and garage door failures. Mobile homes damaged, especially if unanchored. Unsecured lightweight objects become dangerous projectiles. - Several large trees snapped or uprooted, but with greater numbers in places where trees are shallow rooted. Several fences and roadway signs blown over. - Some roads impassable from large debris, and more within urban or heavily wooded places. A few bridges, causeways, and access routes impassable. - Scattered power and communications outages, but more prevalent in areas with above ground lines. * STORM SURGE - No storm surge inundation forecast - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Little to no storm surge flooding - The storm surge threat has remained nearly steady from the previous assessment. - PLAN: There is little to no threat of storm surge flooding. Rough surf, coastal erosion, and life-threatening rip currents are possible. - PREPARE: Little to no preparations for storm surge flooding are needed. - ACT: Follow the instructions of local officials. Monitor forecasts. - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Little to None - Little to no potential impacts from storm surge flooding. * FLOODING RAIN - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: - Peak Rainfall Amounts: Additional 3-6 inches, with locally higher amounts - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for moderate flooding rain - The flooding rain threat has remained nearly steady from the previous assessment. - PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for moderate flooding from heavy rain. Evacuations and rescues are possible. - PREPARE: Consider protective actions if you are in an area vulnerable to flooding. - ACT: Heed any flood watches and warnings. Failure to take action may result in serious injury or loss of life. - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant - Moderate rainfall flooding may prompt several evacuations and rescues. - Rivers and tributaries may quickly become swollen with swifter currents and overspill their banks in a few places, especially in usually vulnerable spots. Small streams, creeks, canals, bayous, and ditches overflow. - Flood waters can enter some structures or weaken foundations. Several places may experience expanded areas of rapid inundation at underpasses, low-lying spots, and poor drainage areas. Some streets and parking lots take on moving water as storm drains and retention ponds overflow. Driving conditions become hazardous. Some road and bridge closures. * TORNADO - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: - Situation is somewhat favorable for tornadoes - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for a few tornadoes - The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the previous assessment. - PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for a few tornadoes. - PREPARE: If your shelter is particularly vulnerable to tornadoes, prepare to relocate to safe shelter before hazardous weather arrives. - ACT: If a tornado warning is issued, be ready to shelter quickly. - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited - The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution of emergency plans during tropical events. - A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power and communications disruptions. - Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, chimneys toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned, large tree tops and branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees knocked over, moving vehicles blown off roads, and small boats pulled from moorings. * FOR MORE INFORMATION: - http://emergency.louisiana.gov http://www.weather.gov NWSheadline TROPICAL STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT VTEC /O.CON.KLIX.TR.W.1013.000000T0000Z-000000T0000Z/ EAS-ORG WXR PIL LIXTCVLIX BLOCKCHANNEL CMAS BLOCKCHANNEL EAS BLOCKCHANNEL NWEM Pointe Coupee 31.011,-91.671 30.996,-91.659 30.970,-91.662 30.930,-91.646 30.895,-91.661 30.857,-91.661 30.848,-91.653 30.840,-91.630 30.847,-91.588 30.837,-91.567 30.841,-91.559 30.884,-91.564 30.895,-91.580 30.899,-91.610 30.918,-91.614 30.916,-91.549 30.904,-91.532 30.876,-91.516 30.851,-91.518 30.791,-91.539 30.779,-91.554 30.769,-91.590 30.761,-91.596 30.749,-91.593 30.731,-91.554 30.741,-91.497 30.735,-91.458 30.759,-91.381 30.731,-91.357 30.672,-91.341 30.659,-91.331 30.654,-91.333 30.647,-91.311 30.587,-91.365 30.569,-91.366 30.567,-91.399 30.540,-91.408 30.540,-91.414 30.513,-91.415 30.511,-91.482 30.505,-91.482 30.508,-91.501 30.497,-91.499 30.497,-91.526 30.488,-91.557 30.483,-91.557 30.483,-91.583 30.497,-91.583 30.497,-91.701 30.498,-91.756 30.508,-91.750 30.512,-91.731 30.563,-91.757 30.600,-91.751 30.617,-91.754 30.631,-91.741 30.661,-91.745 30.670,-91.732 30.703,-91.734 30.741,-91.758 30.757,-91.755 30.781,-91.766 30.811,-91.807 30.834,-91.799 30.849,-91.818 30.861,-91.822 30.865,-91.804 30.875,-91.802 30.975,-91.805 30.987,-91.780 31.005,-91.773 31.019,-91.749 31.007,-91.719 31.009,-91.710 31.019,-91.703 31.019,-91.691 31.011,-91.671 UGC LAZ034 SAME 022077
