Cape Cod and the Islands Brace for Jose

Southeastern Massachusetts, including the Cape and Islands, are preparing for Jose’s arrival.

The National Weather Service says a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Watch Hill to Hull, including Block Island, Nantucket, and Martha’s Vineyard.

A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours.

Captain Richard Shultz, commander of Coast Guard Sector Southeastern New England said through a news release, “We understand the sea is a livelihood for many people but this is one of those few times when we urge everyone, commercial and recreational boaters, to stay off the water.”

Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod crews are flying storm tracks and using marine radios to warn offshore boaters of the approaching heavy weather and Coast Guard Sectors and Stations across southern New England will maintain response-ready for near-shore search and rescue if needed.
