The saving grace is that ties are getting lower each day based on astronomical tides. Based on the moon phase, if you will. That gets us clear of any major coastal flooding. Thats the legacy of the storm. Tonight for showers, temps in the low 60s for the most part. Best chance of rain further south and east. Our base total will be on cape cod. Tomorrow, a lot of cloud cover. Well see scattered showers on and off. Bands swirling in off the ocean. The further north and west, the warmer and brighter it will be.
