Storm soaking Massachusetts: What wind, flood impacts will towns, cities have?

Mass. — A storm bringing drenching rain and damaging wind gusts moved through the state overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning after many communities were buried by more than a foot of snow on Sunday.

The worst of the wind and rain have moved out, but the roads are soaking from heavy rain overnight.

“Now that the heavy rain has subsided, our concern this afternoon will be for river flooding,” Boston 25 Meteorologist Vicki Graf wrote in her weather blog. “Stronger wind gusts overnight also caused some damage and power outages.”

River flooding will also be a concern as snow continues to melt after Sundays winter storm prompted warnings and blanketed the region in snow.

A coastal flood watch is also in effect for Barnstable, Dukes, Essex, Norfolk, Plymouth, Bristol, Nantucket, and Suffolk counties until 1 p.m. Wednesday.
