One of the tools on the National Hurricane Center: Warnings/Cone Interactive Map

I know you’re all likely watching the storm and local weather reports like WJAR 10. I was curious about the latest “Most likely arrival time of Tropical Storm Wind”. Blue line along the coast shows storm surge warnings. Upper Narragansett Bay has no warnings though I bet high tide will reflect the presence of the storm offshore.

 Wind Speed Probability > 34 KNOTS (39 mph), As of 5:00 AM 9/15/23
This is for Tropical Winds lasting at least 1 minute.

Hurricane Lee and Tropical Storm Wind probability as of 5:00 am 9-15-23.

Our local forecast on “Storm Team 10” and the National Weather Service looks fairly tame considering this storm is passing just offshore. Thankful for that. Hoping our strongest gusts from LEE don’t down any trees & powerlines. To the best of my knowledge, the Rhode Island “Bread & Milk Alert” has been cancelled!

Stay safe and keep on eye on the forecast.
