Potential Severe Weather Today/Tonight
· A cold front is forecast to move through southern New England today, generating thunderstorms this afternoon through tonight as it interacts with the warm humid air currently in place over the region.
· Severe thunderstorms are possible, with the highest risk area being western and north central Massachusetts.
· The main concern with these storms is locally damaging wind gusts, with large hail a lower probability. These storms are also capable of producing heavy rain, which may lead to localized flooding in low-lying or poor-drainage areas. Isolated flash flooding is also a possibility.
· Thunderstorms should end across Massachusetts by midnight tonight.
We had a good amount of rain last night. The garden needed it, and the days have been nice so I guess we can't complain. I hope those hanging tomato plants are keeping everyone who bought one knee deep in tomatoes. These sunny warm days are what we waited for all winter. Bev.
