Good reminders especially for those of us in areas not used to experiencing 80° temps in May! #newenglanders #climatechange #heatsafety

[CDC @CDCgov]

Getting too hot can make you sick when your body can’t properly cool itself off. Beat the heat this summer by remembering to:
• Stay cool
• Stay hydrated
• Stay informed

Coastal communities need to know what actions to take to mitigate flooding as sea level rises. A new NCCOS-funded study helps meet this need by quantifying #FloodRisk across 13 coastal counties in Mississippi, Alabama, and the Florida panhandle. https://t.co/Bm1I3ZCaKd

The federal government is offering a third round of free covid tests, @tamarakeithNPR reports. The site is live, but they haven't announced it yet. https://t.co/eRT06CfPgB

This feels like a false narrative - a real estate agent buys a house in the sand on the beach and doesn’t know his property might flood? I understand many people purchase homes without awareness of flood risk, but this one seems clear - what do we think? https://t.co/HaPyouXzpL

The mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain can make winter travel dangerous. If you are getting behind the wheel today, remember:

🚘 Clear your car of ice & snow.
🚘 Pay attention to the road at all times & wear your seatbelt.
🚘 Slow down & keep your distance with other cars.

Defusing ‘bombogenesis’: Don’t let weather buzzwords cloud the forecast

Amid extreme weather, catchy terms attract a lot of attention. But it’s paramount we don’t lose sight of key messages and how to stay safe, writes

When a blizzard hits at high tide, this is what it looks like in a new neighborhood built at sea level, on landfill, in the bullseye of rising seas. This is Boston's Seaport.

[NWS Boston @NWSBoston]

[450 AM Sat | Coastal Flooding] The risk for coastal flooding has increased around the Saturday AM high tide. Coastal Flood Warnings are now in effect, with as much as two ft of inundation above ground level expected for coastal roads in eastern MA, Cape Cod and the Islands.

[Capital Weather @capitalweather]

Update on Nor'easter:
* Confidence building in blockbuster snows, blizzard conditions from coastal Delaware to coastal New England Saturday.
* One to two feet probable in Providence + Boston, along w/ wind gusts of 40-55 mph -- jackpot zone.

I’ve been thinking a lot about my 1st trip to coastal Louisiana where I saw some of this coastal infrastructure first hand with Mr. Dupre. The challenge of what and who to save and how best to invest federal $$ is a critical and difficult topic in our work https://t.co/bt8ep3TeGx
