Hurricane Matthew NWS Update 10-3-16 @ 3:18pm

Team,

Please see the below comments from
Mike Dutter of the NWS in Wakefield.  Thanks!  Jim

“Good afternoon - Attached is a briefing slide regarding Hurricane Matthew. In short, there is growing confidence of a significant hurricane off of the southeast U.S. coastline late this week. However, there is much less confidence on the track beyond mid-week, and what affects, if any, will occur over the region this weekend. Please note, even if we are not directly impacted by Matthew, any heavy rainfall on the periphery of the storm could cause some flooding due to our already saturated ground in many areas. In addition, due to the wet ground, trees may be more susceptible to being downed even from moderate winds.
