    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
    ----------------------
    Key messages for Isaias can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
    Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT4 and WMO header WTNT44 KNHC.

    RAINFALL: Additional Rainfall totals of 2 to 5 inches with
    localized maximum amounts of 10 inches are possible across the
    Southern Appalachians from the western Carolinas into western
    Virginia. Additional rainfall totals of 1 to 2 inches
    possible across the Florida Big Bend and northwest Florida bringing
    storm totals towards 12 inches. Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches
    with localized maximum amounts to 6 inches are possible near the
    coasts of the Carolinas.

    TORNADOES: A couple of tornadoes are possible tonight across eastern
    Georgia and the Carolinas.

    WIND: Strong wind gusts continue to pose a threat across the
    southeastern United States today, particularly near the Southern

    powerlines may occur, with the risk highest in elevated terrain.

    SURF: Swells from Isaias will continue to affect much of the
    Gulf coasts of the United States, Mexico, and western Cuba this
    weekend. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and
    rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local
    weather office.
