[Weather] NWS Boston - Emergency Management Briefing for Tropical Storm Elsa - Noon Wed.

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Hi everyone,

Here is the latest briefing on Tropical Storm Elsa.   Primary concerns are
heavy rain to the north/west of where it tracks, strong winds south/east of
the track, rough marine conditions, and an increase in surf and rip
currents along south coastal areas.

Confidence is increasing that this will be a lower-end tropical storm for
our area. The track has shifted slightly to the west, putting the greatest
threat of 2-3+ inches of rain in central/western MA and portions of
northern CT and northern RI.

We continue to monitor its progress and updated forecasts issued by the
National Hurricane Center (which come out at 5am, 11am, 5pm and 11pm
daily). You can see the latest forecast information on the NHC webpage
<https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/#Elsa> or our local tropical page
<https://www.weather.gov/box/tropical>.

Our next update will be emailed out around 6 PM this afternoon.

Thanks,
Glenn Field, Warning Coordination Meteorologist
