storm force. Conditions may still be gusty.
– PREPARE: Listen for any instructions from local officials.
– ACT: Ensure emergency readiness should the forecast change.
– REALIZED IMPACTS: Being Assessed
– Little to no additional wind impacts expected. Community
officials are now assessing the extent of actual wind
impacts accordingly.

action will likely result in serious injury or loss of life.
– POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Extensive
– Major rainfall flooding may prompt many evacuations and
rescues.
– Rivers and tributaries may rapidly overflow their banks in
multiple places. Small streams, creeks, canals, arroyos,
and ditches may become dangerous rivers. In mountain areas,
destructive runoff may run quickly down valleys while
increasing susceptibility to rockslides and mudslides.
Flood control systems and barriers may become stressed.
– Flood waters can enter many structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or
washed away. Many places where flood waters may cover
escape routes. Streets and parking lots become rivers of
moving water with underpasses submerged. Driving conditions
become dangerous. Many road and bridge closures with some
weakened or washed out.
* TORNADO
– LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
– Situation is unfavorable for tornadoes
– POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Tornadoes not expected
– The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
previous assessment.

– 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, arroyos, 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

– Peak Wind Forecast: 10-20 mph with gusts to 35 mph
– POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Wind less than 39 mph
– The wind threat has remained nearly steady from the
previous assessment.
– PLAN: The sustained wind should remain less than tropical
storm force. Conditions may still be gusty.
– PREPARE: Listen for any instructions from local officials.
– ACT: Ensure emergency readiness should the forecast change.
– REALIZED IMPACTS: Being Assessed
– Little to no additional wind impacts expected. Community
officials are now assessing the extent of actual wind
impacts accordingly.
* FLOODING RAIN
– LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Flash Flood Watch is in effect
– Peak Rainfall Amounts: Additional 1-3 inches, with locally
higher amounts
– POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Potential for major
flooding rain
– The flooding rain threat has remained nearly steady from
the previous assessment.
– PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for
major flooding from heavy rain. Evacuations and rescues are
likely.
– PREPARE: Strongly consider protective actions, especially
if you are in an area vulnerable to flooding.
– ACT: Heed any flood watches and warnings. Failure to take
action will likely result in serious injury or loss of life.
– POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Extensive
– Major rainfall flooding may prompt many evacuations and
rescues.
– Rivers and tributaries may rapidly overflow their banks in
multiple places. Small streams, creeks, canals, arroyos,
and ditches may become dangerous rivers. In mountain areas,
destructive runoff may run quickly down valleys while
increasing susceptibility to rockslides and mudslides.
Flood control systems and barriers may become stressed.
– Flood waters can enter many structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or
washed away. Many places where flood waters may cover
escape routes. Streets and parking lots become rivers of
moving water with underpasses submerged. Driving conditions
become dangerous. Many road and bridge closures with some
weakened or washed out.
* TORNADO
– LATEST LOCAL FORECAST:
– Situation is unfavorable for tornadoes
– POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY: Tornadoes not expected
– The tornado threat has remained nearly steady from the
previous assessment.
– PLAN: Tornadoes are not expected. Showers and thunderstorms
with gusty winds may still occur.
– PREPARE: Little to no preparations needed to protect
against tornadoes at this time. Keep informed of the latest
tornado situation.
– ACT: Listen for changes in the forecast.
