[Weather] [2025.03.06 AM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Strong to Damaging Northwest Winds Tonight and Friday

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning,

We are expecting a period of strong to damaging northwest winds to develop
tonight and continue into Friday afternoon. Strongest gusts up to 60 mph
are expected in the eastern slopes of the Berkshires, Worcester County and
northwest Middlesex County in Massachusetts. Gusts of up to 50 mph are
expected in the lower elevations, with the greatest frequency of those
gusts taking place after sunrise on Friday.

High Wind Warnings and Wind Advisories are now posted, from 7 PM
tonight until 7 PM Friday.

Although we expect wind gusts to gradually subside late in the day on
Friday, there is high confidence in wind gusts staying above 35 mph tonight
until after sundown on Friday.

Please find attached a one-page briefing and supporting graphics for this
anticipated strong wind event.

Expect our next briefing to be sent by 600 PM Thursday.

Thank You!

Meteorologist: Andrew Loconto
