[Weather] NWS Boston: EM Briefing - Hot weather today/Sunday & Possible Strong T-storms Sunday

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning everyone,

Attached is our latest forecast update for today and tomorrow. Very little
changes have been made.

*Heat:*
Heat Advisories are posted for much of southern New England with the
expectation of heat index values reaching the 95-100F range, especially
away from the coast.  Actual temperatures will be in the mid 90s in those
same areas both today and again tomorrow. Low temperatures tonight will not
drop below 70F in many areas, especially urban areas.

*Potential Strong Thunderstorms Sunday:*
There is still a risk for strong to possibly severe thunderstorms to move
into western sections of Massachusetts and Connecticut Sunday afternoon,
primarily after 4pm.  The NWS Storm Prediction Center has included the far
northwest portion of Massachusetts in a "Slight Risk" for Severe
Thunderstorms. This is actually a slightly smaller area than previous
forecasts. We will continue to monitor the potential and provide an update
later this afternoon.

See attached for the 1-Pager, along with additional images showing the
maximum heat index values today and Sunday and the Storm Prediction
Center's outlook.

Stay cool.

Andy Nash & Rodney Chai
