	Coastal Flood Advisory
Statement as of 3:49 PM EST on January 07, 2009 ... Coastal flood advisory in effect for Hatteras Island until 10 am EST Thursday... The National Weather Service in Newport/Morehead City has issued a coastal flood advisory... which is in effect until 10 am EST Thursday for Hatteras Island. Strong westerly flow will develop over the Pamlico Sound following the passage of a cold front this evening. Gale force west winds will pile water up along the eastern Pamlico Sound this evening and overnight producing water levels 2 to 3 feet above normal along the sound side of Hatteras Island. These water levels will lead to minor sound side flooding over portions of Hatteras Island adjacent to Pamlico Sound... especially near and along tidal creeks and bays. Residents in areas prone to sound side flooding... should take action now to protect property. Water levels will begin to recede Thursday morning as wind speeds diminish. A coastal flood advisory indicates that onshore winds and tides will combine to produce minor flooding of low areas adjacent to the Pamlico Sound.

	Wind Advisory
Statement as of 2:40 PM EST on January 07, 2009 ... Wind Advisory remains in effect until 5 am EST Thursday... Strong southwest winds will continue tonight at 25 to 35 mph with gusts as high as 45 mph possible ahead of the cold front. Winds will slowly begin to shift to the west as the front moves across area. A Wind Advisory means that winds of 31 to 39 mph with higher gusts are expected. Winds this strong can make driving difficult... especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.
