[Weather] NWS Boston/Norton PM Storm Briefing

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good afternoon everyone,

The latest briefing for the upcoming storm is attached.

*Changes:*
- High Wind Warnings has been issued for Cape Cod and the Islands, and Wind
Advisories are being issued for much of Rhode Island and eastern
Massachusetts.
- Coastal Flood Advisory has been issued for south coastal Rhode Island and
Massachusetts for the Friday evening high tide.
- Storm Warnings have been issued for most of the Massachusetts coastal
waters.
- The heaviest rainfall, 2 to 3 inches on average with locally as much as 4
inches, is now expected across western and central Massachusetts and
northern Connecticut. This is where the highest risk of minor river
flooding exists. Some of the smaller rivers in these areas could reach
moderate flooding, but that is highly dependent on how much rain falls.

Confidence remains high in expected impacts from heavy rain, high winds,
and coastal flooding, starting late tonight and lasting into Friday night.
Keep in mind flooding on main stem rivers may not occur until this weekend,
especially on the Connecticut River.

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 by phone at 508.622.3280

Thanks,
Joe DelliCarpini
NWS Boston/Norton
