What the National Weather Service wrote
At 1047 PM EST, a Weatherflow station at Dog Bar Breakwater measured a convective gust to 64 mph, in association with a fine line of showers and isolated thunderstorms.
The wider storm
Low pressure passed to the west of New England, with a cold front speeding across southern New England during the evening hours. A strong upper level short wave moved across northern New England and an associated low level jet of 80-90 knots moved across southern New England. As is typical in late winter and early spring, a line of heavy showers, with a few embedded thunderstorms, raced across the region, accompanied by severe-level wind gusts that produced some damage during the late evening. There was also some isolated wind damage from post-frontal wind gusts.
Began near Rockport (42.5830, -70.6720).
