Abstract:

In North Carolina's coastal waters, waterspouts can form very quickly and be dangerous for boaters and swimmers. The National Weather Service Office at Wilmington monitors five coastal counties from Surf City to the South Santee River in South Carolina and forty miles seaward for weather information. Loughner explains a new weather service program that allows boaters and beachgoers to go online daily for waterspout outlooks.
