The weather is expected to be mostly quiet the first week of March but there are a few hazards to monitor. Locally heavy rain and thunderstorms may produce flooding from the Arklatex to the Southeast early this week. Also, a strong cold front sweeping off the East Coast will result in very gusty winds across the Northeast and New England. Finally, an active trade wind pattern is likely in Hawaii.
Wind Advisories are in place across parts of New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Maine
