Coastal Flood Watch
Statement as of 5:18 am CDT on August 30, 2008


... Coastal Flood Watch remains in effect from late tonight
through Monday evening...

A coastal Flood Watch remains in effect from late tonight through
Monday evening.

Hurricane Gustav will move northwest across the central Gulf of
Mexico this weekend. Large swells with a period of around
10 seconds will emanate northward away from the center of Gustav.
These large and long period swells are expected to begin arriving
at the Gulf beaches of Alabama and the western Florida Panhandle
early Sunday. Run-up of water on low lying and unprotected
beaches... such as the west end of Dauphin Island... will start during
the day on Sunday and continue into Monday. A coastal Flood Watch is
in effect beginning 400 am Sunday.

The large swells will also significantly increase the rip current
threat along area Gulf beaches beginning Sunday.

A coastal Flood Watch means that conditions favorable for coastal
flooding are expected to develop. Coastal residents should be
alert for later statements or warnings... and take action to
protect property.
