Storm Coordination Message #1 – Monday Evening 3/25/13-Tuesday Morning 3/26/13 Winter Storm Event
Hello to all..
..A coastal storm will largely miss Southern New England grazing the South Coast of Massachusetts and Cape Cod and the Islands with 1-2″ of snow with isolated 3″ amounts. Strong Winds will reach Wind Advisory criteria on Nantucket Island and may be near that criteria in other parts of South Coastal Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Minor splashover may occur on north and east facing coastal areas of the Eastern Massachusetts coastline..
..A Wind Advisory is in effect for Nantucket Island from 4 PM this afternoon to 8 AM Tuesday Morning. It is possible the Wind Advisory could be expanded to other parts of Cape Cod and the Islands..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor this storm event Monday Night into Tuesday. This is the only coordination message for this storm system unless a significant upgrade to the situation occurs. It is noted that one fairly reliable model brings storm impacts closer to the southern parts of Southern New England but it is currently being discounted at this time as multiple other reliable models has a near miss for the region. This will, however, continue to be monitored. Below is the NWS Taunton Wind Advisory Statement and Hazardous Weather Outlook..
