HAZARD...Waterspouts near marine areas and winds in excess of 40 mph.

Long Beach, Bay St. Louis, Waveland, Diamondhead, Shoreline Park, and

roadways.

If on or near marine areas, get out of the water and move indoors or
inside a vehicle. Remember, lightning can strike out to 10 miles from

enough to be struck by lightning. Move to safe shelter now! Do not be
caught on the water in a thunderstorm.
