New England residents are being warned to be prepared for strong winds and heavy rain as an early season nor’easter blows into the region.
Two storm systems making their way up the East Coast are expected to combine into one and hit the Virginias on Friday before moving up into parts of New England, 7’s Chief Meteorologist, Jeremy Reiner says.
The wild weather will hit peak intensity around mid-morning and continue into the early afternoon.
Between 1 and 2 p.m., high tides could cause some minor coastal flooding, according to Reiner.
Strong winds are also in the forecast and could cause some power outages.
Parts of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine could also expect to see some wet snowfall.
The storm is expected to move through quickly and residents can expect clear conditions on Sunday.
