...A STRONG THUNDERSTORM WILL IMPACT PORTIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN ST.

CHARLES AND NORTH CENTRAL LAFOURCHE PARISHES THROUGH 200 PM CDT

...



At 125 PM CDT, Doppler radar was tracking a strong thunderstorm

capable of producing waterspouts over marine areas 9 miles west of

Barataria, or 10 miles northeast of Larose, moving west at 10 mph.



HAZARD...Waterspouts and winds in excess of 40 mph.



SOURCE...Radar indicated.



IMPACT...Waterspouts can easily overturn boats and create locally 

         hazardous waters. Gusty winds could knock down tree limbs 

         and blow around unsecured objects.



This storm will remain over mainly rural areas of southeastern St.

Charles and north central Lafourche Parishes.



PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



If outdoors, consider seeking shelter inside a building. 



Torrential rainfall is occurring with this storm and may lead to

localized flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded

roadways.



If on or near marine areas, get out of the water and move indoors or

inside a vehicle. Remember, lightning can strike out to 10 miles from

the parent thunderstorm. If you can hear thunder, you are close

enough to be struck by lightning. Move to safe shelter now! Do not be

caught on the water in a thunderstorm.
