(Mystic River watershed climate surge data)

Map sent by Michele Sprengnether of Fresh Pond Residence Alliance

This map shows what area around Alewife has over a 1 in 6 chance of flooding by 2020.

There is a greater than 1 in 6 chance that (sea level rise + storm surge + tide) will reach 5 ft. by 2020 in a storm event. You can vary the height of the water to see what areas are affected by varying degrees, and the odds of such events occurring.
