Team –
Here is the latest NWS briefing. The biggest news is that the tides have dropped significantly. The Tide Chart shows this afternoon’s high tide, previously forecasted to reach Major levels at 6.5’, will now crest on the lower side of Moderate at 5.5’. By comparison, Friday afternoon’s high tide was 5.46’.
The Hourly Graph shows wind speeds still in the 45mph range this afternoon through 7 pm, after which they will slowly drop off over the next 24 hours.
There have been 11 reports of fallen trees or limbs; only 7 Dominion customers are out at this time.
More to come.
Thank you!

Director, Emergency Preparedness and Response
