Hurricane Earl Summary: Southern New England Impacts as of August 31, 2010

Hurricane Earl is approaching Southern New England, bringing significant impacts expected from Wednesday night through Saturday. Swells and high surf will develop, creating dangerous rip currents at most ocean-exposed beaches. There is a moderate chance of tropical storm-force winds affecting Cape Cod, Nantucket, and Martha’s Vineyard, with a low but notable risk of hurricane-force winds, especially along the outer Cape and Nantucket. Additionally, heavy rainfall exceeding 5 inches is possible in southeast Massachusetts from Thursday to Friday.
