The episode as NWS BOX wrote it up.
Hermine was named on August 31st as it intensified to a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico. She meandered about in the eastern Gulf of Mexico before moving northeastward across the Florida panhandle, through Georgia and then along the coast of North and South Carolina. She was a hurricane as she made landfall in Florida, then weakened to a tropical storm and finally a tropical depression as she moved off the coast of North Carolina. After moving off the coast of North Carolina, Hermine moved northeast, then north, then west, meandering south of southern New England for several days in early September.
While classified as a tropical system, Hermine's effects on southern New England were rather minimal. Rainfall added up to less than an inch for most locations and winds were generally below tropical storm force. Because trees were still fully leaved and we had higher wind gusts, there was some wind damage. Storm surge was highest during low tide so we had minimal coastal flooding impacts.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Boston/Norton, MA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Sep 5, 1:42 PM EST, 1 hour 24 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
242 PM EDT MON SEP 5 2016
.SYNOPSIS...
Hermine was about 150 miles southeast of Nantucket at early
afternoon. As Hermine begins to move towards the northwest, winds
will increase and rain will overspread RI and eastern MA today.
This storm will make its closest approach to southern New England
Tuesday evening...however in a weaker state. Periods of rain and
wind may linger into Tue or Wed. Very warm and humid conditions
follow Hermine later this week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 7 PM THIS EVENING/...
*** Tropical Storm Force Winds Observed at Nantucket & adjacent
Waters ***
230 PM Update ...
At 2 pm Hermine is about 150 southeast of Nantucket. Strong
subsidence continues across much of the area in response to
anticyclonic mid level flow over northern New England. This has
resulted in mostly sunny conditions across northwest CT into much
of northern MA including Boston. Thus have diminished cloud cover
across this area and increased temps. Otherwise previous forecast
remains on track.
As of 2 pm strongest wind gusts over land occurred at Nantucket
airport with 49 kt/56 mph (sustained 34 kt) and over water buoy
44008 (54 miles southeast of Nantucket just gusted to 56 kt/64
mph (sustained 36 kt)! Both reports verifying tropical storm
warnings across this area. Earlier discussion below.
==================================================================
Winds ...
latest visible satellite imagery suggest the center circulation of
Hermine is about 225 miles southeast of Nantucket and beginning to
move NNW. At 10 am peak winds include 37 kt at Nantucket and 51 kt
at buoy 44008...54 miles southeast of Nantucket. Good model
agreement among 00z deterministic guid and 00z ensembles that
strongest wind field/low level jet will track across the south
coast of MA and RI between noon and 5 pm today. Thus expect NNE
winds gusting up to 55 mph across the islands including Block
island and gusts up to 45 mph or so along the immediate south
coast of MA and RI.
Rainfall ...
12z CHH sounding reveals a deep layer of dry air between 850 mb
and 500 mb. Thus rain bands moving onshore will initially dry up
before reaching the ground. However model guidance indicates as
Hermine rotates northwest the cyclonic branch of the warm conveyor
belt /WCB/ will pivot onshore with rain reaching Boston-Providence
corridor this afternoon and possibly into Worcester Hills and
eastern CT by sunset. Across the CT river valley /I-91 corridor/
dim sunshine this morning will be replaced by overcast skies this
afternoon...however dry weather should prevail.
Previous forecast capturing these meteorological details above...
thus not much change with this forecast update. Earlier discussion
below.
&&
.SHORT TERM /7 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
Hermine...
* Dangerous rip currents, rough surf and building seas will affect
the southern New England coast and coastal waters through
Wednesday.
* Tropical storm force wind gusts will continue on the coastal
waters through tonight.
* Minor beach erosion possible with each high tide cycle along the
RI coast and Nantucket. Any coastal flooding is expected to be
minor and spotty.
Will follow the NHC forecast for Hermine as there continues to be
quite a bit of spread in the model guidance. This track follows the
GFS track fairly closely and continues to be the most consistent of
the models and in the center of the guidance envelope. So have
followed closely to the GFS for this portion of the forecast.
Hermine will circulate and wobble around south of New England
through much of Tuesday. Beyond that, with the divergence in the
model guidance there is much more uncertainty with how quickly
Hermine exits out to sea. The ECMWF is a bit faster than the GFS but
regardless of how quickly the storm exits east out to sea, this
storm will have a greater marine impact than on land.
Wind...A decent pressure gradient will set up across southern New
England between high pressure to the north and Hermine to the south.
While winds from Hermine will be limited to the southern coastal
waters, this pressure gradient will result in strong, gusty winds
south of the Massachusetts Turnpike.
Rainfall...Outer bands of rainfall from Hermine can be seen on our
radar southeast of Nantucket as of 4 AM this morning. These showers
will move with Hermine as she moves to the northwest. However,
whether this rain reaches southern New England will depend on how
much northward movement there is, as compared with westward
movement. The best chances for rain will be along the south coast
and in southeastern Massachusetts, including the Cape and Islands.
Expect 1 to 2 inches of rain across the Cape and Islands, less than
an inch across the rest of eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Much of western Massachusetts and Connecticut may end up with little
to no appreciable rainfall. Showery weather may continue through
Wednesday, depending on the track and speed of Hermine's departure.
Beachgoers...As Hermine continues to move to the northwest today,
seas will continue to build. This will result in rough surf and
dangerous rip currents. Because the seas will remain high through
Wednesday, the threat for dangerous rip currents will continue
through then as well. Beachgoers are encouraged to swim only at
beaches with lifeguards.
Coastal Impacts...See tides and coastal flooding section below.
While confidence is increasing in the impacts listed above, it is
still not a high confidence forecast. A small shift to the north or
the south in the track could result in much greater impacts to
southern New England or very little, if any, impact. Keep attuned
to forecasts to stay abreast of the latest developments and be
prepared.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Big Picture...
With the departure of Hermine, the larger scale pattern reasserts.
Upper ridge over the West Atlantic, with a shortwave trough moving
from the Pacific Northwest across the Northern Plains, then
lifting through Quebec next weekend. This is mainly a dry period,
but the passing shortwave may support a cold front that reaches
south through Southern New England over the weekend. Contour heights
are above normal through the late week and weekend, so
temperatures should be above normal.
Details...
Uncertainty on timing this far out. Possibly one cold front
Thursday. Better chance of a cold front passage either Saturday or
Sunday. These could bring a chance of showers and maybe a
thunderstorm. Temps aloft are equiv to 15-17C, which would suggest
max sfc temps of 85 to 90F.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels.
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Short Term /through Wednesday Night/...
230 PM update ... overall forecast confidence is high in trends
but lower in exact timing of details.
Thru 00z ...
Strong NNE winds thru 00z with highest winds over the islands with
gusts up to 55 mph. Along the south coast of MA and RI winds up to
45 mph expected. Less wind inland. VFR except MVFR Cape Cod and
the islands in Showers...spreading northward into eastern MA
including Boston after 21z.
After 00z ...
Should see a downward trend in NNE wind speeds although still
remaining somewhat windy south coast and breezy elsewhere. MVFR
conditions over RI and eastern MA will drift westward into CT and
western-central MA in spotty showers.
Tuesday ... MVFR in spotty showers. Light to modest ENE winds.
Tuesday night ... MVFR likely with isolated IFR possible in areas
of fog and spotty showers. Light NE winds.
KBOS Terminal ... showers and MVFR conditions over the ocean come
onshore around 00z. Strongest winds remain south across the
islands.
KBDL Terminal ... VFR thru this evening with any showers and MVFR
conditions holding off until after midnight.
Outlook /Wednesday through Friday/...
VFR. Scattered afternoon showers/thunderstorms possible in Western
MA late Thursday.
&&
.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels.
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Short Term /through Wednesday Night/...
1015 AM update ...
At 10 am buoy 44008 /Nantucket Shoals/ reporting wind gusts up to
51 kt! 37 kt at Nantucket airport. Strongest winds up to 50 kt
will be observed between noon and 5 pm across the ocean waters
south of the islands. Given NNE trajectory dangerous seas will
develop south and east of Nantucket. Earlier discussion below.
==================================================================
***Tropical Storm Headlines are out for the southern coastal waters,
including Narragansett Bay and Cape Cod Bay***
***Seas increase to up to 15 to 20 feet and tropical storm force
winds are expected on the southern waters with the approach of
Hermine***
High confidence in trends...lower confidence in exact timing. Seas
will increase as Hermine approaches southern New England from the
south. Expect 15 to 20 foot seas to build on the southern outer
waters today. Seas will diminish somewhat on Tuesday as Hermine
sinks back to the south a bit. Tropical storm force wind gusts are
expected through this evening. Winds will diminish but remain
above small craft criteria through Tuesday.
Outlook /Thursday through Friday/...
There may be a bit of an ebb and flow to how high the seas are as
Hermine meanders about south of the region, but seas are expected to
remain above 8 to 12 feet through Wednesday on the southern
waters. On the nearshore waters, seas 5 to 8 feet will be just
offshore. Seas look to start diminishing Thursday. Winds will
remain below tropical storm force through the remainder of the
period. Expect small craft criteria, particularly on the seas, to
be met throughout much of the period on the outer waters.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Minor to possibly moderate beach erosion will be likely along the
ocean exposed shorelines of the RI south coast. Nantucket, and Cape
Cod from Wellfleet to Chatham with each high tide cycle.
Astronomical tides are relatively low early this week, and this will
help to mitigate any coastal inundation concerns. Expect little
more that splash over at the time of high tide along south and
east facing coasts along the RI and MA south coast, Cape Cod ocean
side, and the islands. Minor beach erosion with pockets of
moderate erosion will be likely over several high tide cycles
along the RI/MA south coast, ocean side Cape Cod, and south/east
sides of the islands due to large swells moving onto the shoreline
from the southeast. As of 1030 am, 20 foot combined wind wave and
swells were being reported from buoys located at Nantucket Shoals
and Georges Bank.
