| episode_narrative | Low pressure moving northeastward from Georgia intensified off the coast of New England with storm force winds near the center and gale force winds extending to the Maine and New Hampshire coastlines. Astronomical high tides were occurring while the strong winds were hitting the coastline. At 11:26 EST, the Portland tide gauge read 12.6 feet, a foot above normal, and .6 feet above flood stage. Coastal flood damage due to the storm surge was light to moderate, but widespread, effecting the entire Maine and New Hampshire coastlines from the Merrimack River in Massachusetts to Eastport, Maine. Many piers in Maine were submerged. Route 1 at Lincolnville , Woolwich, Arrowsic, and Georgetown and Route 209 in Phippsburg, along with many other coastal roadways and causeways were flooded with up to 2 feet of water, temporarily closing the roads. Harbor towns, such as Camden, Chebeague Isle, Machias, and Kennebunkport reported wharf damage. In Kennebunkport, several inches of water filled the downtown areas. In the Pine Point area of Scarborough, basements were flooded with salt water. |
