Tropical Storm Andrea has made landfall with winds of 65 MPH along the northern coast of FL. Now, Andrea will come up the east coast and effect us here in New England. However, as it moves over the colder waters it will likely become a regular low pressure center. The latest track sends the center of the storm over Cape Cod Friday night. So, the strongest winds will be felt there with wind gusts to 50 MPH. In Boston most wind gusts will be closer to 30 MPH. But, just a slight shift in the track could bring the winds closer to Boston.
