[Weather] [2019.04.20 AM] Interior / River Flooding

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning everyone,

Widespread rain with embedded heavier showers continues this morning and
through this evening. Total rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches is forecast.
Details below:

*What / Where / When *

   - Interior Flooding
      - With the possibility of urban and poor-drainage flooding, the FLOOD
      WATCH continues for western and central MA, all of CT where heaviest
      rainfall is forecast.


   - River Flooding
      - In addition to snow melt further upstream, heavy rainfall will
      exacerbate main stem flooding along the Connecticut River with some
      locations going back above minor flood levels.
      - It may also contribute to sharp rises for a few smaller streams
      throughout the area.
      - For more specific details, please see NWS river forecasts at:
      https://water.weather.gov/ahps2/index.php?wfo=box


   - Coastal Flooding
      - Only minimal tidal departures were noted during last evening's high
      tide along the south coast. We are not expecting much, if any, inundation
      issues today.

Thank you

Bryce Williams
