Today’s weather was nasty.
Significant coastal flooding was expected at high tide tonight (7:35), then again tomorrow morning at 8.
Wind gusts could be up to 60 mph. And up to 3 1/2 inches of rain is expected before it ends tomorrow morning.
Be careful out there!

We would like to know why there were no flood alerts for residents in the shore areas.
I got an alert from the town for exactly that at 421pm…
I realize weather humans get a bad rap, but almost any forecast in recent days gave a fairly clear view what was coming.
I received an alert through Nixle 888777 at 4:21pm as well.
If you text that number above with your zip code, you will be registered!
