NORTHEASTERN KENT...SOUTHEASTERN PROVIDENCE AND NORTHERN BRISTOL
COUNTIES IN RHODE ISLAND...
AT 404 PM EDT...TRAINED WEATHER SPOTTERS REPORTED A WATER SPOUT NEAR
BARRINGTON BEACH. THIS FUNNEL CLOUD HAS SINCE LIFTED BUT IS STILL
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A TORNADO AS IT MOVES ACROSS SOUTHERN BRISTOL
COUNTY IN MASSACHUSETTS THROUGH 445 PM. THIS INCLUDES
SWANSEA...REHOBOTH AND DIGHTON.
WHEN A TORNADO WARNING IS ISSUED BASED ON DOPPLER RADAR...IT MEANS
THAT STRONG ROTATION HAS BEEN DETECTED IN THE STORM. A TORNADO MAY
ALREADY BE ON THE GROUND...OR IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP SHORTLY. IF YOU
ARE IN THE PATH OF THIS DANGEROUS STORM...MOVE INDOORS AND TO THE
LOWEST LEVEL OF THE BUILDING. STAY AWAY FROM WINDOWS. IF DRIVING...DO
NOT SEEK SHELTER UNDER A HIGHWAY OVERPASS.
DO NOT USE HIGHWAY OVERPASSES FOR SHELTER. OVERPASSES DO NOT PROVIDE
PROTECTION FROM TORNADIC WINDS. VEHICLES STOPPED UNDER BRIDGES BLOCK
TRAFFIC AND PREVENT PEOPLE FROM GETTING OUT OF THE STORM`S PATH AND
TO SHELTER. IF YOU CANNOT DRIVE AWAY FROM THE TORNADO...GET OUT OF
YOUR VEHICLE AND LIE FLAT IN A DITCH AS A LAST RESORT.
A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1000 PM EDT
