The main impact will be for the Marine community. High confidence in high seas of 15 to 25 feet on the outer waters east and southeast of Cape Cod and the Islands. Northerly winds will gust 40 to 50 kt in this area. A* Storm Warning *is in effect on these waters, while a *Gale Warning* is up on most other waters. Block Island Sound, Narragansett Bay, and Boston Harbor have *Small Craft Advisories* (see attached graphic). Widespread minor coastal flooding & beach erosion are likely during this afternoon's high tide along the eastern MA coast and particularly across the north facing sides of Cape Cod and Nantucket.

A *Coastal Flood Advisory* is in effect this afternoon for the Massachusetts eastern coasts including Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. Northerly wind gusts of 40 to 55 mph are likely across Cape Cod and up to 60 mph on Nantucket today, thus a *Wind Advisory* remains in effect for most locations and a *High Wind Warning* has been issued for Nantucket.

21 Sep '20

Good afternoon No significant changes to the track of Hurricane Teddy. The storm is still expected to pass about 400 miles east of Massachusetts Tuesday night. The main impact will be for the Marine community. High confidence in high seas of 15 to 25 feet on the outer waters east and southeast of Cape Cod and the Islands. Northerly winds will gust 40 to 50 kt in this area. A Storm Warning is in effect on these waters, while a Gale Warning is up on most other waters. Block Island Sound, Narragansett Bay, and Boston Harbor have Small Craft Advisories. Pockets of minor coastal flooding & beach erosion appear likely during the Tuesday afternoon high tide cycle along the eastern MA coast and particularly across the north facing sides of Cape Cod and Nantucket. While some typically vulnerable shoreline roads may become flooded within a few hours of the high tide, significant coastal flooding is not expected. High surf & dangerous rip currents are expected on ocean exposed beaches. In addition, given the large surf, viewing the large waves or fishing from jetties and/or piers can be very dangerous and is strongly discouraged. A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect during Tuesday afternoon for the Massachusetts eastern coasts including Nantucket and Marthas Vineyard. Northerly wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph are likely across Cape Cod and Nantucket Tuesday, thus a Wind Advisory remains in effect. No rain is expected from Hurricane Teddy in southern New England. We have attached the expected track of Hurricane Teddy along with our current wave height and wind gust forecasts.

by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 19 Sep '20

19 Sep '20

Good afternoon! There continues to be high confidence that Hurricane Teddy will pass well east of our region Monday and Tuesday. The main impact will be dangerously high seas for mariners across our eastern Massachusetts coastal waters, especially along Outer Cape Cod and Nantucket. Seas will build to between 12 and 17 feet with a period of North-northeast wind gusts of 30 to 40 knots. We have attached the expected track of Hurricane Teddy (issued at 5 PM), the earliest arrival time for tropical storm force winds, and our current wave height/wind gust forecasts. The only other impacts across our region will be persistent high surf/dangerous rip currents through Tuesday. There also will likely be pockets of minor coastal flooding/beach erosion along the eastern MA coastline during the afternoon high tide cycles through Tuesday. However, any coastal flooding should be minor and significant impacts are not expected. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!
