Safety Precautions & Preparedness Guidelines

Roadway Safety

• Thunderstorm & Rain Hazards: Rain chances peak on Friday afternoon with potential localized thunderstorms. Be prepared for slick roadways, sudden downpours, and reduced visibility. Allow extra stopping distance during commute hours.

• Tidal Waterway Inundation: Shallow water pooling remains possible during high tide cycles on coastal causeways and low-lying secondary roads near tidal creeks. Never drive through flooded stretches of road.

Ocean & Beach Safety

• Rip Currents & Surf: Onshore easterly winds will maintain longshore currents and localized rip current risks along east- and south-facing beaches. Swim only near designated lifeguard stations.

• Beach Erosion & High Tides: Elevated high tides could push water close to dune bases on narrow beach stretches along Oak Island, Holden Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, and Sunset Beach. Avoid walking beneath unstable sand banks.
