Good afternoon, Here is an update to the last briefing to include the one pager briefing and relevant graphics. A wind advisory was issued for Cape Cod and Nantucket and a high surf advisory remains in effect for the eastern MA coast. As the storm has trended west, beneficial rains are likely, especially for eastern MA. If this westward trend continues heavier rainfall will be likely.

[2022.08.16 PM] NWS Boston EM Briefing - Strong Winds & Heavy Rain Threat Tonight/Wed
by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

Good afternoon everyone, As we are working on updating the forecast this afternoon, we wanted to share with you some of the changes and highlights, which include - - A wind advisory may be needed for Cape Cod and Nantucket for tonight and Wednesday, with northeast winds gusting up to 45 to 50 mph at times. Given trees are fully leaved, this may be sufficient for minor tree damage/down branches. - Beneficial rains are likely for this region but with up to an inch of rain possible in spots, nuisance poor drainage flooding is possible. Furthermore, if the area of low pressure tracks farther west, even higher amounts are possible. - Still some uncertainty how far west the rain shield will track. Highest confidence for beneficial rains is across Cape Cod & the islands, then eastern MA, and possibly westward into RI, eastern CT and the Worcester Hills. - Astronomical tides are fairly low and combined with strongest winds, highest seas and maximum storm surge likely occurring at low tide Wednesday, we are not expecting much if any inundation/coastal flooding. Another email will be sent later this afternoon with forecast graphics.

[2022.08.09 AM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Isolated Severe Risk and Oppressive Heat Today
by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 09 Aug '22

09 Aug '22

Good morning, Oppressive heat and humidity will continue today with heat indices again expected to reach the mid 90s to lower 100s. Heat Advisories remain in effect through 800 PM today. There remains high confidence that today will be the last day of this stretch of oppressive heat and humidity. In addition, isolated severe thunderstorms are possible in Southern New England between 2 and 10 PM today. As described in the attached graphic, areas along and south of the Massachusetts Turnpike have the greatest risk to experience strong to isolated severe thunderstorms. Localized damaging straight-line winds is the main severe weather risk, but torrential rain and frequent lightning can be expected in thunderstorms. Organized severe weather is not anticipated. While confidence in the area where storms may develop is rated as moderate to high, confidence in the potential for severe weather is low to moderate and it is possible that storms remain at sub-severe levels. Unless there are significant changes to either the oppressive heat forecast and/or the severe thunderstorm forecast, expect this to be the final briefing regarding both hazards. Thank You!
