[Weather] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Light Icing This Morning and Potential RI Flooding Thu Fri

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good Morning Everyone,

We have attached two one-page briefings and corresponding images:

*1) Light icing this morning across interior southern New England*.
Slippery travel is possible before temperatures rise above freezing this
afternoon. Note that we have added western Rhode Island to the Winter
Weather Advisory.

*2) Potential for urban and river flooding in Rhode Island. * A Flood Watch
has been issued for Rhode Island (except Block Island) Thursday night into
Friday. We are most concerned about the possibility of the Pawtuxet River
reaching its moderate flood stage sometime Thursday night or early Friday
morning. Note that we *do not* expect flooding to be as significant as it
was earlier this month. Homes and businesses could be impacted in low lying
sections of Warwick, West Warwick and Cranston.

This will be the final update on the light icing. The next briefing on the
potential flooding will be issued later this afternoon.

Thanks,
Joe Dellicarpini and Kyle Pederson
