[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning all,

Here is the latest briefing regarding the heat advisory and potential for a
few strong to severe storms on Monday. There is very little to no changes
from the previous forecast.

*Heat Advisory Sunday & Monday*:

*What:*

   - Heat index of 98 to 103 degrees.

*Where:*

   - Much of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, except the South
   Coast and the east slopes of the Berkshires.

*When:*

   - Sunday and Monday.

*Impacts:*

   - Heat illnesses may occur with prolonged strenuous activity outdoors.


*Thunderstorm Risk Monday:*

   - A few strong thunderstorms possible Monday afternoon
   - Localized damaging wind gusts and heavy rainfall with the stronger
   storms
   - Heavy rainfall may produce localized flooding

*Confidence:  *Areal coverage of storms will likely be limited and it is
possible most locations remain dry with just isolated storms. The best
chance of thunderstorms may be along the I-95 corridor from Boston to
Providence.

Attached are the updated Heat Advisory map and maximum heat index values
forecast for Sunday and Monday. The Severe Thunderstorm Outlook for Monday
