Good afternoon, This is a follow-up to our morning e-mail. We continue to monitor a developing coastal storm which will likely impact Southern New England in some capacity beginning Thursday afternoon and continuing into early Friday. Note that there is a fair amount of uncertainty in details. *Changes:* - Strong northwest wind gusts to 45 mph will trail the storm center late Friday into Saturday. Gale headlines may be needed on the waters. *What:* - Rain, with a risk for some wet snow mixing in. - Periods of heavy rainfall rates with a low risk for brief heavy snowfall rates if it occurs. - Risk for at least minor coastal flooding. - Strong Northwest wind gusts to 40-45 mph starting late Friday through Saturday evening. *When:* - Mainly rain beginning in Western MA and Northern CT Thursday afternoon and in the I-95 corridor during the evening rush hour. - If a change to snow occurs, it would likely be during the overnight hours Thursday night. - Coastal flood risk for Thursday night, and Friday mid day high tides, mainly for east coastal Massachusetts. *When we will know more/Uncertainty:* - There is uncertainty as to whether a change to wet snow will ultimately occur, and if so, where exactly the best chances are. - Strength of the low pressure will ultimately determine the risk for coastal flooding. - We will continue to monitor over the next 36-60 hours and update as necessary as the potential impacts become better defined.
