Marine High Wind · Atlantic North

At 1232 AM EST, a Weatherflow site at Deer Island recorded a gust to 59 mph. This was due to strong post-frontal wind gusts -- not in association with a convective line that moved through a few hours prior.

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.
