TROPICAL STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR CAPE AND ISLANDS. The center of Bill is about 250 miles south of Nantucket. The storm currently has winds of 85 MPH, a catogory 1 storm. Currently, it is moving north- right for us- but it is expected to turn NE later tonight. On that projection it would clip with cape with gusts up to 50 MPH. Heavy thunderstorms and showers would dump 1-2+ of rain overnight on the cape. The rain is expected to start between 10 and 11 pm on nantucket and then move north-westward. Here in Boston, some gusts over 25 are possible, and showers are likely. However, if the turn to the NE is delayed stronger winds may come closer to the cape. The worst should be over by 8 or 9 am on the cape, and it will be over earlier in the boston area.
Note: please stay out of the water through Monday. Riptides will last after Hurricane Bill passes by.
