Severe Weather/Flash Flood Coordination Message #1 – Monday August 4th 2014 – Severe Weather/Flash Flood Potential

Hello to all..

..Severe Weather Potential is low due to weak wind fields but isolated slow moving strong thunderstorms may cause a risk for urban/poor drainage flooding to flash flooding across localized locations of Southern New England later this Monday afternoon and early evening before the loss of daytime heating weakens any storm activity. At this time, we will likely handle any of these thunderstorms with SKYWARN Self-Activation. This will be the only coordination message on this event unless an upgrade to the situation occurs. Below is the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook..
