Hello to all..

..SKYWARN Activation with Ops at NWS Taunton will commence by 3 PM to monitor strong to severe thunderstorm potential. The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has issued a Mesoscale Convective Discussion indicating a watch possible for portions of Southern New England. Also, a Coastal Flood Advisory has been issued for South Coastal Rhode Island from 6-9 PM EDT due to a high spring tide and southwest winds pushing water into the bay causing possible minor coastal flooding in this area. Below is the Storm Prediction Center Mesoscale Convective Discussion, NWS Taunton Coastal Flood Advisory Statement and Hazardous Weather Outlook..
