It is with a heavy heart that we share the news regarding the passing of Retired Fire Chief Tom Barstow earlier Monday afternoon following a hospitalization over the weekend during his continued bout with cancer.

Chief Barstow worked for the City of North Myrtle Beach from 1980-2015 promoting through the ranks until his appointment as Fire Chief and Emergency Preparedness Director in 1996, where he served until his retirement in February 2015.

The City of North Myrtle Beach is forever indebted to Chief Barstow and his service to our Department and City.

We ask that you join us in keeping his family in our thoughts and prayers.

King Tides are expected in North Myrtle Beach from May 15–18, with peak impacts on Saturday ⚠️🌊 Secure your outdoor belongings and stay weather aware!

⚠️ 🌊 King Tides Alert 🌊 ⚠️

King Tides are expected to impact the North Myrtle Beach area from Friday, May 15, through Monday, May 18, with peak effects occurring on Saturday, May 16.

These elevated tides can cause flooding in low-lying areas of the City.

Homeowners in flood-prone areas are encouraged to secure outdoor furniture, garbage cans, and other loose items to prevent them from being carried away or damaged.

Residents and visitors should anticipate typical King Tide impacts in the area. While some side streets may experience water over the roadway, widespread flooding is not anticipated at this time.

Motorists are urged to avoid driving through flooded streets. Even at low speeds, vehicles can create a wake that pushes water into nearby homes and properties. Please treat flooded streets as “No Wake” zones to help reduce further damage.

If a road is blocked with barricades or cones, do not drive around them, as there may be a safety hazard beyond the closure.

The City will continue to monitor forecasts and provide updates as needed.
