Good morning,

Many wind-related headlines in effect today across southern New England.


   1. Wind Advisory in effect for the Cape and islands, as well as the
   South Shore and South Coast of MA. Newport and Bristol Counties in RI also
   have a Wind Advisory. Wind gusts up to 50 mph in the advisory area. Up to
   30 mph farther inland.
   2. Elevated risk for fire growth across southern New England. Especially
   across eastern MA and northern RI, where Red Flag Warnings have been posted
   3. Gale Warning in effect across all of the MA and RI coastal waters,
   except for Boston Harbor. Gusts up to 40 kt possible on the waters

In addition, showers and thunderstorms may approach our region this

expected to be very widespread. The main risk for an thunderstorms will be
strong to damaging straight-line winds.
