Note that there is a fair amount of uncertainty in details. *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. *When:* - Mainly rain beginning around mid day/afternoon Thursday. - 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 48-72 hours and update as necessary as the potential impacts become better defined.
