Coastal Flood Statement
Urgency:
Expected
Effective:
June 28, 2026 - 10:01am
Expires:
June 29, 2026 - 12:15am
Description:
* WHAT...Isolated minor coastal flooding expected.
* WHERE...The lagoon side of east facing reefs of Majuro.
* WHEN...Through late tonight.
* IMPACTS...Some water on low lying roads and property.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A long fetch of west winds will cause unusual
west swells for Majuro atoll, further elevated by a westerly wind
burst feeding into Invest Area 95W. The lagoon side of the eastern
reefs could be particularly susceptible, and these areas are rarely
affected.
Instruction:
Take action to protect life and property, such as bringing in small
objects that could be borne away by water if it comes in. Remember,
because this is west winds and west swell, it will be the lagoon side
of the eastern shores that will have some of the biggest effects.
