Gusty winds will linger for the next several hours and dangerous marine conditions are expected through the morning hours. The following are the remaining hazards from Lee: * Wind - Gusty northwest winds of 30 to 35 mph will be possible through midnight, especially across western Maine. * High Surf - Dangerous surf with large breaking waves will occur along the New Hampshire and western Maine coasts along with dangerous rip currents at ocean beaches through tomorrow morning. Please check back frequently for the latest updates. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS ---------------------------------- Do not go sightseeing within impacted communities simply to observe storm damage. Sightseers can interfere with the timeliness of rescuers and first responders to needlessly jeopardize lives. When inspecting damage, use flashlights rather than candles or flamed lighting. Be aware of sparks that can ignite leaking gas or other flammables. Do not go up on your roof until the rain and strong winds have subsided. Ladders can be slippery in the rain and unexpected wind gusts can blow you off of the roof. Do not risk bodily harm in an attempt to reduce property damage. When clearing out fallen trees, be careful with chain saws and axes. Always wear protective gear and keep others at a safe distance. Use these tools according to operating manuals and safety instruction. Leaning trees and those which have fallen on roof tops can be especially challenging. If you are not in good health or unsure about what you are doing, have someone else with tree cutting experience do the job. Never cut trees without a partner. If using a generator, avoid carbon monoxide poisoning by following instructions by the manufacturer. Make sure that the generator is run in a well ventilated space. * ADDITIONAL SOURCES OF INFORMATION: - For information on appropriate preparations see ready.gov - For information on creating an emergency plan see getagameplan.org - For additional disaster preparedness information see redcross.org NEXT UPDATE ----------- As it pertains to this event...this will be the last local statement issued by the National Weather Service in Gray ME regarding the effects of tropical cyclone hazards upon the area. $$ LegroFetched URL: http://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/raw/wt/wtus81.kgyx.hls.gyx.txt
