Nor'easter-like storm to hit the east coast

A storm will spin up along the New England coast at midweek and will take on characteristics of a nor'easter with drenching wind-swept rain and coastal flooding in some locations.

One or more days of rainy, windy and unsettled weather conditions are in store this week for the northeastern United States from Virginia to Maine and into Canada from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to Prince Edward Island and southeastern Quebec.

The combination of onshore winds and high astronomical tides during the approach of the new moon can lead to coastal flooding from eastern Massachusetts to Nova Scotia. Tides in these areas will run from 1 to 3 feet above published levels. High tides on Wednesday and Thursday at Boston are late in the morning and late in the evening.
