* WHAT...Minor lakeshore flooding expected. * WHERE...Lake Ontario shore of Oswego and Jefferson counties. Water rises are also possible along the upper Saint Lawrence River in the Thousand Islands region. * WHEN...Until 8 PM EDT Friday. * IMPACTS...The combination of high lake levels and significant wave action will result in minor lakeshore flooding along the immediate lakeshore, especially in bays, inlets, harbors, and other low lying areas along the shoreline. Shoreline erosion is also expected.

A Lakeshore Flood Warning means lakeshore flooding is occurring, is imminent, or is expected to occur. For your safety, stay off breakwaters, piers, rock outcroppings and beaches! Waves are often larger than they appear and can easily wash you away. Expect significant beach erosion and debris, local road closures and extremely dangerous boating conditions.

* WHAT...West winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts of 40 to 50 mph. * WHERE...Wayne, Northern Cayuga, and Oswego Counties. * WHEN...Until 8 PM EDT this evening. * IMPACTS...Gusty winds will blow around unsecured objects. A few trees and tree limbs will likely come down, resulting in isolated power outages. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Fully leafed out trees may result in more tree damage than with similar wind speeds during the colder months of the year.

Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high profile vehicle. Secure outdoor objects.
