Lingering Gusty Winds Today
by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 17 Oct '19

17 Oct '19

Good morning everyone, Damaging winds from overnight have exited the region during the predawn hours. However it will be windy during the daylight hours today but winds will not be at the magnitude of last night. Nevertheless west winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to around 45 mph may be strong enough to down additional small tree limbs and branches especially over Cape Cod and the Islands where winds may gusts up to 55 mph. At the very least this will have some impact on power restoration efforts today. Thus a wind advisory has been posted until 5 pm today for all of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and northern Connecticut. Toward sunset and especially thereafter winds will begin to diminish.

[2019.10.16 PM] Strong to Damaging Winds Possible & Heavy Rain/Poor Drainage Flooding
by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

Good afternoon everyone, Here is our latest update on a powerful coastal storm which will impact MA, RI & CT tonight into Thursday morning. *Changes From Morning Briefing: * - *High Wind Warnings Issued*: East Coastal MA (excluding Suffolk County), Cape Cod and the Islands. In Effect through 5 PM Thursday. - *Wind Advisories Expanded*: Includes the rest of MA, CT and RI outside of the High Wind Warnings. In Effect through 6 PM Thursday. - *Flood Watches Issued: *Includes northern CT and in MA from Middlesex County westward. In effect from late tonight until Thursday morning. - *"Marginal Risk" of Severe Weather: *Northern CT, RI into southeast MA. Mainly late evening into overnight in shield of wind driven rain. * Note: *Low probability of development. *What/When & Where:* *Headlines ...* - *High Wind Warnings: *East Coast of MA (excluding Suffolk County), Cape Cod & Islands Thursday - *Wind Advisories - *Rest of MA, RI and all of CT. - *Flood Watches*: Northern CT and in Massachusetts from Middlesex County westward. *Strong to Damaging Wind Threat ...* - *When* - two surges of wind are expected with the first surge tonight (east winds) followed by a stronger surge Thursday morning and afternoon (west winds) - *Where* - RI into eastern MA but strongest wind over Cape Cod and Islands - *Impacts* - winds potentially strong enough to down tree limbs and result in power outages. Greatest likelihood for these impacts over coastal eastern MA, Cape Cod and the Islands, but such impacts possible anywhere. - *Uncertainty* - how much strong wind aloft will mix down to the surface and areal extent. Trees remaining fully leaved will require less wind for damage to occur. *Heavy Rainfall Threat & Poor Drainage Flooding ...* - *When* - Heaviest rain approximately 10 pm Wednesday to 6 am Thursday from southwest to northeast - *Where* - Mainly in the Flood Watch area; but possible anywhere. - *Impacts* - a widespread 1.5 to 3 inches of rain with localized amounts of 4 to 5 inches remain possible. Poor drainage and urban/street flooding would be the main flood impact, as river levels have been running low. - *Uncertainty* - areal extent of 4 to 5 inch rainfall amounts are uncertain. Updated low and high end rainfall maps attached along with mostly likely rainfall amounts to help communicate this uncertainty. *Severe Weather Threat ... * - *When* - Mainly between 10 pm and 5 am Thursday - *Where* - Northern CT, RI and eastern MA. - *Impacts* - Strong wind fields in conjunction with the heavy rain may lead to a *non-zero but low-probability* potential for enhanced wind damage in showers with little to no lightning. An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out. - *Uncertainty* - On development and coverage. This low-probability threat, were it to occur, would be embedded in larger shield of heavy rain.

Good morning everyone, Here is our latest update on a powerful coastal storm to impact MA, RI & CT tonight into Thursday morning. *What/When & Where ...* *Headlines ...* - *High Wind Watch - *Cape Cod & Islands Thursday - *Wind Advisories - *south coast of RI and eastern MA coast including Boston tonight then all of RI and eastern MA Thursday *Strong to Damaging Wind Threat ...* - *When* - two surges of wind are expected with the first surge tonight (east winds) followed by a stronger surge Thursday morning and afternoon (west winds) - *Where* - RI into eastern MA but strongest wind over Cape Cod and Islands - *Impacts* - winds potentially strong enough to down tree limbs and result in power outages. Greatest threat over Cape Cod and the Islands - *Uncertainty* - how much strong wind aloft will mix down to the surface and areal extent. Trees remaining fully leaved will require less wind for damage to occur. *Heavy Rainfall Threat & Poor Drainage Flooding ...* - *When* - Heaviest rain approximately 10 pm Wednesday to 6 am Thursday from southwest to northeast - *Where* - all of MA, RI and CT - *Impacts* - a widespread 1.5 to 3 inches of rain with localized amounts of 4 to 5 inches possible. Given the relatively recent dry weather river and stream flows are running at or below normal. Therefore the only flooding expected is poor drainage/urban-street flooding. What may minimize any flooding impacts is the heaviest rainfall is expected to occur in between rush hours, after the late day commute today and before the Friday morning commute - *Uncertainty* - areal extent of 4 to 5 inch rainfall amounts are uncertain. Low and high end rainfall maps attached along with mostly likely rainfall amounts to help communicate this uncertainty Frank Nocera If you have any questions or would like more information, don't hesitate to contact us via this email address, on NWSChat <https://nwschat.weather.gov/>, or at the following: National Weather Service Boston/Norton, MA 46 Commerce Way Norton, MA 02766 508.622.3280 Website <http://www.weather.gov/boston> | Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/NWSBoston> | Twitter <http://www.twitter.com/NWSBoston>

by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 12 Oct '19

12 Oct '19

Good afternoon, Following is an update regarding the long-duration Offshore Ocean Storm (Subtropical Storm Melissa). Subtropical Storm Melissa continues to progress eastward into the western Atlantic waters well south of Nova Scotia, and will continue to move eastward into the northern Atlantic over the next few days. Local impacts across Southern New England have improved, and continued improvement trends are expected. Remaining impacts being from northerly wind gusts and seas on the waters. *Small Craft Advisories* remain in effect for most of the coastal and offshore waters. Northerly wind gusts are expected to subside below Small Craft Advisory levels through tonight. Though subsiding trends to waves/seas are expected on all waters, rough sea conditions will remain on most offshore waters into Sunday. As conditions have improved and will continue to do so, this will serve as the final briefing regarding Subtropical Storm Melissa, unless conditions warrant otherwise.
