Local Weather
Partly to Mostly Cloudy & Windy with periodic showers and a possible thunderstorm or two.
Hurricane Irene continues to move away from the local region. Lingering moisture left behind this system will allow for a few showers from time to time today and tomorrow, with a gradual decrease in winds. Therefore expect breezy conditions to persist at least through Tuesday. Residents (and visitors) are still advised to use caution when traveling through low-lying and flood-prone areas, as the water will take some time to subside. Furthermore, some more flooding is still possible as showers continue to fall. Otherwise, mariners (boaters & beach-goers) should continue to exercise extreme caution in the open waters as the seas are still rough and strong winds still persist.
- Winds: are generally from the East at 15 to 25 miles per hour, with higher gusts near showers upto 35 miles per hour.
- Seas: are fairly choppy to rough with wave heights between 6 to 9 feet, and will gradually decrease as of tomorrow. A Small Craft Advisory is still in effect and mariners are advised not to venture out of port during the next 24 hours.
