Severe Weather Coordination Message #1 – Sunday 5/29/16 and Monday Memorial Day 5/30/16 Severe Weather/Heavy Rainfall Potential

Hello to all…

..Isolated to Scattered Strong to Possibly a Marginally Severe Thunderstorm or two are possible over Western Massachusetts from Western Worcester County Massachusetts west to the New York State line and Northwestern and North-Central Connecticut this Sunday afternoon through early evening. Heavy rainfall and urban and poor drainage flooding and lightning are the main threats but isolated strong to damaging winds or hail is also possible..
..On Memorial Day, more widespread showers are likely with the potential for localized heavy rainfall and urban and poor drainage flooding in localized areas that receive persistent and short duration heavy rainfall. This is associated with a cold front that will capture some of the moisture from Bonnie in the South/North Carolina region. An Isolated Strong to Severe Thunderstorm risk is also possible in parts of Northwest Massachusetts with strong to damaging wind and hail as well with the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) placing Northwest Massachusetts into Northern New England in a marginal risk for severe weather..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor conditions over Western New England for today and area wide on Memorial Day. Another coordination message will be posted either late this evening or Memorial Day Morning. Below is the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook and SPC Day-2 Convective Outlook..
