HLSFFC This product covers North and Central Georgia **TROPICAL STORM HELENE HAS EXITED GEORGIA. WIDESPREAD RIVER AND STREAM FLOODING IS ONGOING** NEW INFORMATION --------------- * CHANGES TO WATCHES AND WARNINGS: - All watches and warnings have been canceled * CURRENT WATCHES AND WARNINGS: - None * STORM INFORMATION: - About 100 miles north-northeast of Atlanta GA or about 190 miles north-northeast of Columbus GA - 35.1N 83.8W - Storm Intensity 45 mph - Movement North or 350 degrees at 32 mph SITUATION OVERVIEW ------------------ OVERVIEW. Tropical Storm Helene continues to quickly exit into the Appalachians of the western Carolinas and eastern Tennessee. Lingering showers in Georgia have largely ended. Significant river flooding is ongoing in much of Georgia, and additional river flooding is expected. Breezy conditions will remain through the day, but the threat for significant damaging gusts has ended. POTENTIAL IMPACTS ----------------- * WIND: Little to no additional wind impacts expected, though winds will gust over 30 to 35 miles per hour at times. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS ---------------------------------- * OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION: Be alert for potential flooding from rising rivers and streams which may have yet to crest. Remain informed of the latest river forecasts and heed any flood watches and warnings. Be alert for flooded roads which could be compromised or littered with debris. Avoid travel until water levels subside and roads have been cleared. Do not drive through places where flood waters cover the road. Turn around, don't drown! If using a generator, avoid carbon monoxide poisoning by following instructions provided by the manufacturer. Operate your generator in a well-ventilated space outside of your living area and away from open doors and windows. Do not go sightseeing within impacted communities. Sightseers interfere with the emergency work of first responders. When clearing out fallen trees, be careful with chainsaws and axes. Always wear protective gear and keep others at a safe distance. Leaning trees and those which have fallen on roofs or power lines can be especially dangerous. If you are not in good health or unsure about what you are doing, have someone with tree cutting experience do the job. Never cut trees without a partner. * ADDITIONAL SOURCES OF INFORMATION: - For information on creating an emergency plan see ready.ga.gov - For information on appropriate preparations see ready.gov - For additional disaster preparedness information see redcross.org NEXT UPDATE ----------- As it pertains to this event. this will be the last local statement issued by the National Weather Service in Peachtree City GA regarding the effects of tropical cyclone hazards upon the area.

Tropical storm force winds will continue across southeast South Carolina, the adjacent coastal waters, and the Georgia coastal waters into early this afternoon. Frequent gusts of 40 or 45 mph are expected to continue, but will gradually decrease through the afternoon as the center of Helene begins to curve northwest and move even further away from the forecast area. Across southeast Georgia the Tropical Storm Warning has ended. However, winds will remain gusty. The risk for tornadoes and heavy rain have ended, as the last rainband associated with Helene moves to the north. However, minor flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas are still possible due to previous rains. Area creeks and rivers will continue to rise even though rains have ended. The risk for coastal flooding has likely come to an end. Meanwhile, high surf, strong and dangerous rip currents, and beach erosion are likely at all area beaches through today. POTENTIAL IMPACTS ----------------- * WIND: Potential impacts from the main wind event are now unfolding across southeast South Carolina and southeast Georgia. Remain well sheltered from hazardous wind having possible limited impacts. If realized, these impacts include: - Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored mobile homes. Unsecured lightweight objects blown about. - Large tree limbs broken off. A few trees snapped or uprooted, but with greater numbers in places where trees are shallow rooted. - Some roads impassable due to debris, particularly within urban or heavily wooded locations. Hazardous driving conditions on bridges and other elevated roadways, especially for high profile vehicles. - Isolated to scattered power and communications outages. * SURGE: Little to no additional impacts are anticipated at this time across southeast South Carolina and southeast Georgia. * FLOODING RAIN: Little to no additional impacts are anticipated at this time across southeast South Carolina and southeast Georgia. * TORNADOES: Potential impacts from tornadic waterspouts are still unfolding across the far Charleston County waters. Remain well braced against a waterspout event having possible limited impacts. If realized, these impacts include: - In isolated locations, waterspouts could damage boats. Elsewhere across southeast South Carolina and southeast Georgia, little to no impact is anticipated. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS ---------------------------------- * EVACUATIONS: Follow the advice of local officials. OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION: Listen for updates and be ready in case you lose electrical power. Keep a battery-powered radio, charged cell phone and flashlight handy. * ADDITIONAL SOURCES OF INFORMATION: - For information on appropriate preparations see ready.gov - For information on creating an emergency plan see getagameplan.org - For additional disaster preparedness information see redcross.org NEXT UPDATE ----------- The next local statement will be issued by the National Weather Service in Charleston SC around around 3 PM EDT, or sooner if conditions warrant.
