    All,

    Confidence has increased for the storm track, timing and intensity of Isaias. As a result this briefing has a lot more details. Although the storm intensity is not expected to be as strong over our area as previously thought, PLEASE help us continue to message both the risk for Rip Currents AND Tornadoes. The tornado threat may occur when people are asleep so everybody should have multiple ways to receive warnings.

    Don't forget we will be doing daily webinars through Monday at 830 AM and 630 PM. We will continue to try to post these to our YouTube Channel afterwards.

    To register for ALL of the webinars, please use this link: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/6387513154615601168

    We will be using the audio through the computer for these webinars. This has greatly helped us in our ability to keep the audio lines muted and controlled. To ask a question at the end you can either ask the question through the webinar panel or if you have a microphone, you can raise your hand and we will unmute your mic and call on you. If you have any questions you can always call the office at 252 223 5737 EXT 6.
