THE THREATS OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. WE DO HAVE ANOTHER WARNING ISSUED FOR YOU, BUT TWO ARE WHAT WE HAVE ON OUR RADAR. THE FIRST IS ACROSS FLAGLER COUNTY. THE SECOND THAT’S ACROSS THE VOLUSIA COUNTY. WE’LL TAKE YOU OUT TO FLAGLER RIGHT NOW. AND WHICH HERE IS A SYSTEM MOVING TOWARDS THE SOUTH AT 30 MILE PER HOUR SPEEDS, PUSHING ACROSS SAINT JOHNS COUNTY, HEADING TOWARDS PALM COAST AS WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW. SO YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE SEEN THE RAIN SHOWERS, BUT WE JUST WANT TO GET YOU PREPARED FOR WHAT IS ON THE WAY. IT’S ACROSS THE I-95 CORRIDOR THAT WE HAVE THAT SOUTHERLY WIND FLOW WITH THE CHANCE OF A POSSIBLE TORNADIC SPIN UP. BUT THE PRIMARY THREATS WILL BE THE RAIN, THE CHANCE FOR HAIL, AND THE WINDS. WE’LL TAKE A LOOK AT THE DOPPLER WINDS. RIGHT NOW, THESE ARE ANYWHERE BETWEEN POSSIBLY 30 TO 40 MILE PER HOUR CONDITIONS. WE SEE THOSE OFFSHORE WITH OUR WINDS, BUT THOSE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES, THOSE COULD REACH SPEEDS OF 50. MAYBE EVEN 60MPH. SO YOU WANT TO STAY OFF THE ROAD IF YOU’RE CLOSE TO FLAGLER COUNTY RIGHT NOW ALONG THAT I-95 CORRIDOR WHERE WE DO HAVE THAT SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH, ALSO FURTHER TO OUR SOUTH.

STILL ONGOING ACROSS VOLUSIA COUNTY THIS SYSTEM IS MOVING AT SIMILAR SPEEDS, AND WE DO SHOW THOSE STRONG, GUSTY WINDS WHICH COULD BE UP TO 60 MILE PER HOUR CONDITIONS ACROSS NEW SMYRNA BEACH AND AND OAK HILL. HEAVIER RAINFALL RATES ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVING ACROSS YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS, AND WE SEE SOME FASTER MOVING WINDS AS WELL. HAIL THAT’S BEEN A MAJOR CONCERN. HAIL COULD BE AS GREAT AS AN INCH IN DIAMETER. SO WE TALKED ABOUT BRINGING THOSE PERSONAL BELONGINGS INDOORS OR POSSIBLY STRAPPING THEM DOWN DUE TO THE BREEZY CONDITIONS THAT CONTINUE TO FUNNEL ACROSS THE I-95 CORRIDOR AND OF COURSE, AS THE SEVERE WEATHER CONTINUES TO MOVE TOWARDS THE SOUTH, WE’LL KEEP YOU UP TO DATE WITH ANY NEW WARNINGS THAT MA
