[Weather] [2023.05.15 AM] NWS Boston EM Briefing - Fire Weather Watch Issued for Tuesday and Wednesday

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning,

Southern New England has not seen appreciable rainfall for the last several
days. Full sunshine, gusty conditions and a dry air mass combined with the
recent lack of rain will raise the risk for brushfires on Tuesday and
Wednesday, with the most critical conditions expected between late morning
to sundown each day.

After coordination with state forestry officials, a Fire Weather Watch has
been issued for Tuesday and Wednesday for portions of Southern New England.

Following attached graphic is the Fire Weather Watch area for greater
awareness.

An update to this briefing will be issued when there are anticipated
changes to the Fire Weather Watch, either to Warnings or Statements. Expect
this update no later than Tuesday morning, or sooner if warranted.

Thank You!

Meteorologists: Andrew Loconto and Matt Belk
