[Weather] [2022.05.21 AM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Summer heat continues today & Strong/Severe storms this afternoon into evening

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Hi everyone,

Please find attached an updated one pager briefing on the ongoing
significant early season summer heat and the potential for strong to severe
thunderstorms later today. The updated heat index and forecast high
temperature graphics are also attached. Maximum heat indices are forecast
to be between 95-100F away from the coast so Heat Advisories remain in
effect till 8 PM this evening.

In addition, we are still expecting a round of strong to severe
thunderstorms to impact mainly western MA and northwest CT between 2-10 PM.
Main hazards are isolated damaging wind gusts and small hail. The latest
SPC Day 1 convective outlook and an explanation of the categories have also
been attached.

Thank you,
Rodney Chai and Frank Nocera
