Storm Coordination Message #1 – Late Tuesday Night 8/29/17-Wednesday Afternoon 8/30/17
Hello to all…
..Potential Tropical Cyclone 10 is less likely to become a tropical entity but will intensify to become a nor’easter or hybrid type system bringing strong to damaging winds and some rainfall to Southeast New England if the system tracks close enough to Southern New England..
..A High Wind Watch is in effect for Nantucket Island from late tonight through Wednesday Afternoon for sustained winds of 30-40 MPH with gusts to 50-60 MPH possible. A Wind Advisory is in effect for Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard for sustained winds of 25-35 MPH with gusts to 45-50 MPH. These winds will bring isolated to scattered pockets of tree and wire damage and power outages. Wind Gusts around 40 MPH could occur in Southeast Plymouth into Southern Bristol County Massachusetts depending on storm track..
..A High Surf Advisory is in effect for Cape Cod and the Islands from 8 PM Tuesday Evening through 8 PM Wednesday Evening for high surf and dangerous rip currents for any people going to the beach during this timeframe..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor the storm system for tonight through early Wednesday Afternoon..
Potential tropical cyclone 10, while less likely to become a tropical entity, will intensify as a non-tropical or hybrid system into a nor’easter type coastal storm. Models have been in two camps with one set of reliable models tracking near or inside the 40 North/70 West benchmark while other models are more off shore to the south of the 40 North/70 West benchmark. A consensus blend is being used and currently this is expected to bring some strong to damaging winds to Cape Cod and the Islands with some wind gusts around 40 MPH possible in Southern Bristol and Southeast Plymouth County Massachusetts. Rainfall amounts will be less than 1″ in most areas with some rainfall amounts of around 1″ or more on the islands and possibly the Outer Cape. High surf and rip currents will be an issue along the coast.
SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor the storm system for tonight through early Wednesday Afternoon. An updated coordination message will be posted by 1000 PM EDT Tuesday Evening.
