Good afternoon everyone, 

Given that it is the Memorial Day holiday weekend, we wanted to share our latest expectations on storminess expected later this afternoon.  

No significant changes to the briefing sent this morning are envisioned with this afternoon's forecast. Wind-driven and locally heavy rains are expected tonight into Saturday morning, gusty northeast winds for the Islands overnight into Saturday, and the potential for splashover or minor coastal flooding in the typically vulnerable areas in eastern Massachusetts around the early-Saturday morning high tide.

We are still in the process of finalizing the forecast and graphics. Expect an updated one-page briefing with the latest information and graphics no later than 5 PM this afternoon.

Thank You!
