Overview

  • Coastal flood warnings and advisories stretch from North Carolina to Rhode Island, with minor to locally moderate inundation most likely around Monday evening’s high tide and large surf driving beach erosion.
  • Wind advisories remain for the Cape and Islands after peak gusts reached 50–60 mph at some coastal sites, with speeds easing gradually into Tuesday.
  • Rainfall totals have reached 1–4 inches across many areas, with coastal hotspots near 5 inches, and an additional 1–3 inches possible in a few locations.
  • Showers, gusty onshore winds and cool temperatures linger into Tuesday before clearing and drier, cooler conditions settle in by midweek across the Northeast.
  • A separate Pacific system is delivering rain, gusty winds and isolated thunderstorms to the Bay Area and Central Coast, where flood watches highlight debris‑flow risks on San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara burn scars.
