[Weather] [2025.08.13 PM] NWS Boston/Norton EM Briefing: Isolated Severe Thunderstorms Possible This Afternoon

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning,

We want to provide a quick heads-up that most of southern New England is
under a *marginal risk for severe thunderstorms* this afternoon.

Any thunderstorms that develop will have the potential to produce strong
downdrafts, which could result in damaging wind gusts at the surface.* In
addition to the isolated severe thunderstorm threat, there is also a risk
for urban and poor-drainage flash flooding*, as any storms that develop
today are expected to produce heavy downpours.

Thunderstorms are forecast to develop after 2PM

Please see the attached one-page briefing for more details and don't
hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Have a great day,

Meteorologist Rob Megnia
