Atlantic Point Weather

* WHAT...Northeast winds 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 65 mph.

* WHERE...In Connecticut, Northern New London, Southern Middlesex,
and Southern New London Counties. In New York, Northeast Suffolk,
Northern Nassau, Northwest Suffolk, Southeast Suffolk, Southern
Nassau, and Southwest Suffolk Counties.

* WHEN...Until noon EDT Sunday.

* IMPACTS...Damaging winds will blow down trees and power lines.
Widespread power outages are expected. Travel will be difficult,
especially for high profile vehicles.

People are urged to secure loose objects that could be blown around
or damaged by the wind.

Remain in the lower levels of your home during the windstorm, and
avoid windows. Watch for falling debris and tree limbs. Use caution
if you must drive.

* WHAT...One to two feet and locally up to 2 1/2 feet of
inundation above ground level in vulnerable areas near the
waterfront and shoreline.

* WHERE...Bronx, Northwest Suffolk, Northern Queens and Northern
Nassau Counties.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM EDT Sunday.

* COASTAL IMPACTS...Widespread flooding of vulnerable areas near
the waterfront and shoreline, including roads, parking lots,
parks, lawns, and homes and businesses with basements near the
waterfront. Numerous road closures are likely, and vehicles
parked in vulnerable areas near the waterfront will likely
become flooded. Flooding will also extend inland from the
waterfront along tidal rivers and bays.

* SHOREFRONT AND BEACH IMPACTS...Breaking waves of 3 to 6 feet,
along with elevated water levels, will result in areas of dune
erosion with damage to a few waterfront structures possible.
Splashover over seawalls and overwashes where dune structures
are compromised may locally exacerbate flooding of roadways and
vulnerable structures behind protective dunes.

Take the necessary actions to protect flood prone property. If
travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through
water of unknown depth.
