Tropical Storm Watch
Issued by the National Weather Service at 5:37 PM EDT on September 5, 2008
... Tropical storm watch remains in effect...
... New information...
Updated storm information.
... Areas affected...
This statement recommends actions to be taken by mariners in or
with interests in the coastal waters from Sandy Hook NJ to Watch
Hill RI out 20 nm... including New York Harbor... Long Island Sound
and the South Shore and east end bays of Long Island.
... Watches/warnings...
A tropical storm watch remains in effect.
... Precautionary/preparedness actions...
One of the biggest threats a tropical storm can pose is to the
boating community. Mariners are advised to remain in port until
the tropical storm threat has passed. Boat owners and Marina
operators in the watch area should prepare quickly for tropical
storm conditions.
... Storm surge and storm tide...
Coastal storm surge flooding of 2 to 3 feet above normal tide
levels is expected as Hanna passes just south and east of Long
Island Saturday night. We currently are in a period of neap
tides... which results in low astronomical tides. As a
result... significant coastal flooding is not expected at this
time. However... high seas and rough surf could result in slightly
higher water levels... and some splash over... especially around the
time of high tide.
The times of high tide are as follows...
At Sandy Hook...
high tide is at 1249 am and 115 PM Saturday... and at 139 am
Sunday.
At The Battery...
high tide is at 1235 am and 101 PM Saturday... and at 125 am
Sunday.
At East Rockaway Inlet...
high tide is at 1242 am and 108 PM Saturday... and at 132 am
Sunday.
At Jones Inlet...
high tide is at 1229 am and 1255 PM Saturday... and at 119 am
Sunday.
At Shinnecock Inlet...
high tide is at 1249 am and 115 PM Saturday... and at 139 am
Sunday.
At Montauk Point...

Sunday.
At New London CT...
high tide is at 232 am and 300 PM Saturday... and at 332 am
Sunday.
... Winds...
At the Point of closest approach over eastern Long Island and far
southeast Connecticut... Hanna is expected to have sustained winds
of 40 kt with gusts to 50 kt... mainly east of the center. If the
storm moves as forecast... these strongest winds will remain over the
outer and eastern waters.
... Tornadoes...
Isolated tornadoes will be possible east of the track of Hanna.
This will keep the threat of tornadoes and waterspouts mainly
over the outer and eastern ocean waters... eastern Long Island
Sound... and eastern Long Island bays.
... Next update...
This statement will be updated shortly after 11 PM this evening.
