Good afternoon,
We would like to draw your attention to the potential for localized urban and small stream flooding on Monday, particularly in light of the recent heavy rainfall over the past two weeks. While we are not currently anticipating widespread flooding, it is important to acknowledge the possibility of localized flooding, particularly in eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
As of now, there are no Flood Watches in effect, but we will continue to monitor the situation closely. If our confidence in this forecast increases, it may become necessary to issue a watch.
Our forecasts indicate rainfall amounts ranging between 1" and 2", with the potential for locally higher amounts of 3" +. Rainfall rates could exceed 1" per hour. Notably, the heaviest rainfall is expected to coincide with the Monday evening commute.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Meteorologists: Matt Doody, Hayden Frank, and Torry Dooley
