...TROPICAL STORM WARNING IS CANCELLED...

* LOCATIONS AFFECTED
    - Soperton

* WIND
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Below tropical storm force wind
        - Peak Wind Forecast: 15-25 mph with gusts to 45 mph

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: 
        - The wind threat has decreased from the previous assessment.
        - PLAN: Plan for hazardous wind of equivalent tropical storm 
          force.
        - PREPARE: Remaining efforts to protect property should be 
          completed as soon as possible. Prepare for limited wind 
          damage.
        - ACT: Move to safe shelter before the wind becomes hazardous.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored 
          mobile homes. Unsecured lightweight objects blown about.
        - Many large tree limbs broken off. A few trees snapped or 
          uprooted, but with greater numbers in places where trees 
          are shallow rooted. Some fences and roadway signs blown 
          over.
        - A few roads impassable from debris, particularly within 
          urban or heavily wooded places. Hazardous driving 
          conditions on bridges and other elevated roadways.
        - Scattered power and communications outages.

* FLOODING RAIN
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Flood Watch is in effect
        - Peak Rainfall Amounts: No additional significant rainfall 
          forecast

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST 
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for 
      moderate flooding rain
        - The flooding rain threat has decreased from the previous 
          assessment.
        - PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for 
          moderate flooding from heavy rain. Evacuations and rescues 
          are possible.
        - PREPARE: Consider protective actions if you are in an area 
          vulnerable to flooding.
        - ACT: Heed any flood watches and warnings. Failure to take 
          action may result in serious injury or loss of life. 

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant
        - 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 
          closures.

* TORNADO
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: 
        - Situation is unfavorable for tornadoes

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST 
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: 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.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Little to None
        - Little to no potential impacts from tornadoes.

          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.

    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: 
        - Situation is unfavorable for tornadoes

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST

...TROPICAL STORM WARNING IS CANCELLED...

* LOCATIONS AFFECTED
    - Alamo

* WIND
    - LATEST LOCAL FORECAST: Below tropical storm force wind
        - Peak Wind Forecast: 15-25 mph with gusts to 40 mph

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST 
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Wind less than 39 mph
        - The wind threat has decreased 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: Flood Watch is in effect
        - Peak Rainfall Amounts: No additional significant rainfall 
          forecast

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST 
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for 
      localized flooding rain
        - The flooding rain threat has decreased from the previous 
          assessment.
        - PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for 
          localized flooding from heavy rain.
        - PREPARE: Consider protective actions if you are in an area 
          vulnerable to flooding.
        - ACT: Heed any flood watches and warnings.

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Limited
        - Localized rainfall flooding may prompt a few evacuations.
        - Rivers and tributaries may quickly rise with swifter 
          currents. Small streams, creeks, canals, arroyos, and 
          ditches may become swollen and overflow in spots.
        - Flood waters can enter a few structures, especially in 
          usually vulnerable spots. A few places where rapid ponding 
          of water occurs at underpasses, low-lying spots, and poor 
          drainage areas. Several storm drains and retention ponds 
          become near-full and begin to overflow. Some brief road and 
          bridge closures.

          forecast

    - THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST 
      UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for 
      moderate flooding rain
        - The flooding rain threat has decreased from the previous 
          assessment.
        - PLAN: Emergency plans should include the potential for 
          moderate flooding from heavy rain. Evacuations and rescues 
          are possible.
        - PREPARE: Consider protective actions if you are in an area 
          vulnerable to flooding.
        - ACT: Heed any flood watches and warnings. Failure to take 
          action may result in serious injury or loss of life. 

    - POTENTIAL IMPACTS: Significant
        - 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 
          closures.
