    ...WATERSPOUTS POSSIBLE THIS MORNING...

    The areas affected include...
    Waters from Edisto Beach SC to Altamaha Sound out 20 NM...

    Conditions will be favorable for the development of waterspouts
    across the nearshore waters of far southern South Carolina and
    Southeast Georgia this morning. The risk will be highest along lines
    of towering clouds and near showers and thunderstorms. Conditions
    will become less favorable for waterspout development by late morning
    as the sea breeze begins to form along the beaches.

    PRECAUTIONARY / PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS:

    If waterspouts occur, move your boat away from the waterspout.
    Remember that waterspouts can develop rapidly and produce winds and
    seas that are dangerous for vessels and everyone onboard.

    Report waterspouts via social media or call the National Weather
    Service directly at 1-888-383-2024.
