Heavy rain, thunderstorms, possible flooding to begin this evening
The National Weather Service has issued a statement on expected heavy rain, thunderstorms, and possible flooding.
Rain will overspread western Massachusetts and northern Connecticut between 3 and 6 pm this evening, reaching eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island between 6 and 9 pm this evening.
Bands of heavy rain and a few embedded thunderstorms are expected to impact the region this evening into Tuesday morning. This will bring the potential for some poor drainage street flooding.
