A is for Andrea

Officially, the hurricane season begins June 1st and ends on November 30th. We’re only 7 days in this tropical season and the first named storm in the alphabet is ‘Andrea” with tropical characterists is moving quickly up the I-95 corridor with eyes on Connecticut. Andrea will be downgraded to a tropical low pressure as it hits the northern latitudes. The winds will diminish to under 35MPH but this moisture laden storm will spin off tropical rain bands on us for several hours. The end result as Andrea departs early Saturday morning will be 3 to 4 inches of rain. Small rivers and streams will quickly swell and low line areas will suffer its consequences. By late Saturday morning the sun will come and dry out our landscape. Sunday will be just fine with partly sunny skies and temperatures in the 80’s.
