episode_narrativeA very slow moving coastal storm which was fed tropical moisture by the circulation around Hurricane Lily produced very heavy rains (up to 19 inches along the coast) and persistant strong onshore winds. Coastal storm surges, combined with runoff, caused coastal flooding at and near the times of high tide on the 20 th and 21st. The worst flooding in the County occurred in southwestern coastal sections. At least 20 boats in the Portland area were torn from their moorings by the strong northeast winds and ran aground.
