Nor'easter Brings High Winds, Heavy Rain and Flood Watch to Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts

Nor'easter Brings High Winds, Heavy Rain and Flood Watch to Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts

A persistent nor'easter is currently impacting Southern New England, bringing significant heavy rain and gusty winds. While the strongest winds are subsiding, the region will continue to experience breezy conditions on Sunday, with a decreasing risk of additional power outages. However, the rain is expected to persist intermittently until Tuesday morning, leading to a soggy forecast for the next few days. Many areas have already received 1 to 3 inches of rainfall, and an additional 2 to 4 inches are anticipated, potentially resulting in total rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches by Monday night. This magnitude of rainfall significantly increases the risk of flooding for streets, streams, and rivers. A Flood Watch remains in effect for all of Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts.

Connecticut Experiences Widespread Power Outages and Coastal Flooding Due to Nor'easter

Connecticut is grappling with the aftermath of a nor'easter that brought wind gusts exceeding 50 mph, leading to downed trees, scattered power outages, and coastal flooding. While the most intense winds have subsided, strong gusts are still expected, potentially causing further tree damage. Coastal areas remain a significant concern, with a risk of minor to moderate coastal flooding, especially during high tide, which could render low-lying roads impassable. Rainfall totals have reached between 1 to 2 inches in some areas since Friday, with an additional 0.5 to 1 inch anticipated through Monday, posing a low risk of localized flooding. The storm is projected to gradually move away by Monday afternoon, with weather conditions expected to improve significantly by Tuesday, bringing sunshine and milder temperatures in the 70s.
