* WHAT...For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents expected and strong north to south longshore current. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to one half foot of inundation above ground level expected in low- lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. * WHERE...Coastal Pender County. * WHEN...For the High Rip Current Risk, through this evening. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 9 AM this morning to noon EDT today. * IMPACTS...Low-lying roads and locations along the Intracoastal Waterway and adjacent tidal creeks may observe minor coastal flooding. Check with local officials for any road closures or impacts. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Affected areas listed are based on average tide conditions. Additional locations may experience flooding during periods of heavy rainfall, high winds, or other factors.
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.

- Northeast Cape Fear River Near Burgaw, NC: water level 2.36 ft · within the usual October monthly average for this gauge · U.S. Geological Survey · 2 h ago
River levels are shown against their usual, but not yet judged. A gauge’s usual here is its range of October monthly averages; the reading is the latest 15-minute value, which a passing rain or dry spell can carry outside that range. So no river gauge makes this county Unusual For Here until we compare each day with the same day’s history.
A gauge’s usual is its range of October monthly averages over its record (USGS).
