All,

Apologize for the extra message but we just realized one of the graphics
(ensemble river forecasts) was cropped too much.  Thus, an updated image is
attached.  Sorry for any inconvenience or confusion.

Subject: [2024.03.05 PM] Heavy Rain and Flooding Potential late Wednesday
into Thursday
To:


Good afternoon everyone,

The threat of heavy rain continues for late Wednesday, Wednesday night and
lingering into Thursday morning.  A widespread 2-3" of rainfall is likely
with a swath of up to 4" possible. These rainfall totals may result in
minor to moderate river flooding as well as urban and poor drainage
flooding.

What has changed from our last briefing:

   - *The flood watch has been expanded from southeast MA and RI into most
   of CT (Greater Hartford-Springfield area) and central-eastern MA, including
   Greater Boston area.*

Graphics included - flood watch, ensemble river forecast and hydrographs
for the Pawtuxet River at Cranston, RI and the Wood River at Hope Valley,
RI.  These probabilistic hydrographs show the range of possible outcomes.
If the higher rainfall totals materialize, the higher river level
probabilities will be realized.  Conversely, if less rainfall occurs, the
lower river level probabilities will likely verify.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you,

Joseph Dellicarpini, Hayden Frank and Frank Nocera
