Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions. Remain out of the water to avoid hazardous swimming conditions.

* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Warning, one to two feet of inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 4 to 8 feet in the surf zone. For the Beach Hazards Statement, high risk of rip currents. * WHERE...In North Carolina, Eastern Currituck County. In Virginia, Virginia Beach. * WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Warning, until 1 AM EDT Saturday. For the High Surf Advisory, until 6 PM EDT this evening. For the Beach Hazards Statement, through this evening. * IMPACTS...Widespread flooding of vulnerable areas will result in an elevated threat of property damage to homes and businesses near the waterfront and shoreline. Water will be 1 to 2 feet above ground level in some areas resulting in a sufficient depth to close numerous roads and threaten homes and businesses. Flooding will extend inland from the waterfront along tidal rivers and bays resulting in some road closures and flooding of vehicles. Very dangerous swimming and surfing conditions are expected, as well as the wave action resulting in significant beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. Dangerous shore break can throw a swimmer or surfer head first into the bottom causing neck and back injuries.
