intense storm to bring heavy rain, strong winds, tidal flooding Tuesday into tuesday night

Fueled by the El Nino episode in place, the parade of rainstorms our area has been having is not showing any signs of slowing down. Another storm will impact the area on Tuesday. Unlike the past one, however, this one will likely result in strong winds area-wide and tidal flooding along the western shore of the bay and along the Potomac.
Rain will arrive Tuesday morning. While rain will generally continue throughout the day, there may be some breaks. This storm will pull in a significant surge of moisture and wind from the south. Rainfall amounts are expected to easily reach one inch. Southeast winds will increase during the day, reaching a peak in the evening. Wind gusts may reach or even exceed 50 mph. Moderate tidal flooding is possible Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.
