A coastal storm that rolled into New England on Sunday will continue to dump rain on Massachusetts throughout Monday, with high winds and flooding along the coast likely.
Forecasters with the National Weather Service expect about three-quarters of an inch of rain to fall over the western half of southern New England on Monday. In the eastern part of the region, forecasters expect up to an inch and a half of rain, especially over Southeastern Massachusetts.
There is a chance Cape Cod and the Islands get a break from the rain Monday morning, which would keep totals lower.
“Still not overly concerned about the possibility of thunderstorms today, but the risk is not negligible,” forecasters wrote. “There should be some periods of drier weather between these showers.”
Gusty winds are likely
