Storm Coordination Message #1 – Post Tropical Cyclone Bill Impacts – Sunday June 21st, 2015
Hello to all..
..Post Tropical Cyclone Bill will have the potential to bring a soaking rainfall to much of Southern New England with the potential for urban and poor drainage flooding in Southeastern New England..
..A Flood Watch is now in effect for Southeast Massachusetts including Cape Cod and Rhode Island except for Block Island RI from 4 AM Sunday through Sunday Afternoon for 1.5-3 inches of rain with isolated higher amounts possible. If the rain falls in a short enough period of time, urban and poor drainage flooding issues could develop..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor for rain gauge reports and the urban and poor drainage flood potential Sunday Morning through mid-afternoon..
Post Tropical Cyclone Bill will pass close enough to Southern New England to bring a widespread soaking rainfall to much of Southern New England with the heaviest rainfall of 1.5 to possibly as much as 3″ with isolated higher amounts possible in Southeast New England. A Flood Watch is now in effect for Southeast Massachusetts including Cape Cod and Rhode Island except for Block Island RI from 4 AM Sunday through Sunday Afternoon. If the rain falls in a short enough period of time, urban and poor drainage flooding could develop particularly in locations in Rhode Island and Southeast Massachusetts that have these kind of issues in these scenarios.
SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor for rain gauge reports and the urban and poor drainage flood potential Sunday Morning through mid-afternoon. This will likely be the only coordination message for this event unless a significant upgrade to the situation occurs.
