[Weather] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Impactful Storm Fri-Sat

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good Afternoon Everyone,

We are monitoring the potential for an impactful storm that could affect
holiday travel Friday into Saturday. Please see the attached one-page
briefing for details. Concerns include:

   - Damaging winds up to 60 MPH Friday from the south or southeast, and
   strong west/southwest winds up to 45 MPH on Saturday which could affect
   power restoration efforts.
   - Moderate coastal flooding along parts of both the east and south
   coasts during the Friday morning high tide. Moderate flooding refers to
   flooding 1 to 3 feet deep in more vulnerable locations which could require
   road closures.
   - Minor river flooding, especially along the mainstem Connecticut River.
   Minor flooding refers to flooding less than one foot deep, and is primarily
   confined to low lying areas.
   - Hazardous winds and seas for marine travel.

Additionally, much colder air is expected to follow Saturday and Christmas
Day with wind chills in the single numbers and teens.

We will provide our next update Tuesday afternoon. In the meantime, if you have
any questions,  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 and Hayden Frank
NWS Boston/Norton
