On Monday, August 27th, a weak trough of low pressure approached southern Connecticut from the west. Ahead of this trough, very warm, moist air, combined with unstable atmospheric conditions, led to the development of strong to locally severe thunderstorms during the afternoon and early evening hours. Thunderstorms produced strong winds gusts, which downed some tree limbs onto power lines, resulting in scattered power outages from Darien to Norwalk in Fairfield County.As the thunderstorms interacted with a sea breeze boundary along the Connecticut coast, they redeveloped and moved very slowly east.  These thunderstorms produced torrential rainfall across the immediate coastal sections of southern Fairfield County, leading to localized flooding from Greenwich to Norwalk, particularly south of Interstate 95.  This flooding led to some road closures during the heart of the evening commute.

Strong thunderstorms brought torrential rainfall, with 2.25 inches falling in Princeton as reported by a trained storm spotter.  A spokesman for the Princeton Street Department was quoted as saying it was the first time in 18 years that he could remember most of Main Street flooding during a storm.  The storm drains could not keep up, which was mostly attributed to grass clippings being blown into the street gutters.  A car stalled in high water at the intersection of South Main Street and Boyd Avenue.  The occupants pushed the car to higher pavement and then called for help.  Nobody was injured.  The water level was described by one of the occupants as "up to the truck bumpers deep".

Another round of heavy rain brought Big Laurel creek out of its banks again. A house trailer was damaged this time, and parts of highways 19 and 23 leading into Yancey County were washed away or closed because of water, sand and debris. Bridges and roads were still closed in many of these same areas from flooding the day before. The Jarrett Cove bridge, which crosses Big Laurel, washed away between 430 AM EST and 515 AM EST.
