| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | On Monday, October 29th, Hurricane Sandy (and its remnants) tracked northwest from well off the North Carolina coast to southeastern Pennsylvania, making landfall near the southern tip of New Jersey. A band of heavy rain and high winds associated with Sandy moved northward into Maine Monday afternoon and continued moving northward through the State Monday night. The high winds associated with this band of heavy rain downed numerous trees and caused widespread power outages, especially in southern areas. In addition, the heavy rains caused some road washouts in the State. By Tuesday, the remnants of Sandy had moved into western Pennsylvania, but the circulation around the weakening storm continued to bring tropical air into the region during the day Tuesday and into Wednesday. Localized heavy showers and thunderstorms developed in this tropical airmass Tuesday and Tuesday evening. The shower activity diminished during the day Wednesday as cooler air moved into the region.||Winds across much of the State generally gusted from 40 to 70 mph late Monday afternoon and Monday night. These strong and persistent winds combined with the powerful gusts to down numerous trees throughout the State and caused widespread power outages, especially across southern New Hampshire. Some peak wind gusts included 76 mph in Bath, between 60 and 70 mph in Portland and Kennebunk, and between 50 and 60 mph in Gray, South Bristol, Bristol, Saco, and Sanford.||The most significant hydrological impact from the storm was due to the band of heavy rain that fell between Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning. Across the western part of the State, this band produced 1 to 3 inches of rain in about a 6- to 12-hour period with slightly higher amounts in the southeastern side of the mountains. This amount of heavy rain in the short duration caused some road washouts in the region. Minor flooding was also reported along the Swift River in Roxbury and along the Kennebec River at Skowhegan. |
