Strong cold front Jan 12th

Please be aware that we are expecting a strong cold front to move through our area this evening. 

We are expecting strong to severe thunderstorms, gusty winds of 35-50 mph (highest for coastal counties), and dangerous marine conditions for Eastern NC tonight (January 12th). A wind advisory remains in effect for many coastal counties.

We are not expecting impactful coastal flooding, as the duration of southwesterly low-end gales is quite brief. Water levels could reach as high as 1 foot above normal.

Attached is a two-page briefing for the event.
