In Colorado, NWS Denver and NWS Pueblo have issued special weather statements for areas near Boyero, Limon, and Simla, warning of strong thunderstorms with wind gusts of up to 55 mph and nickel-sized hail. These conditions could lead to tree damage, unsecured objects being blown around, and minor hail damage to vegetation. Residents in these areas are advised to stay indoors and secure any loose items to prevent damage.
On the East Coast, NWS Newport/Morehead City in North Carolina has issued a High Surf Advisory and Coastal Flood Advisory for East Carteret County, warning of large breaking waves of 7 to 10 feet, dangerous rip currents, and strong longshore currents in the surf zone.
