Low pressure intensified as it tracked from the mid Atlantic states to New England. This system brought damaging winds to much of central and southern Rhode Island, where trained spotters and amateur radio operators reported many downed trees and power lines. Wind gusts were esimated near 60 mph on Block Island. About 10,200 customers were left without power throughout the state, as reported by the media.
Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches produced significant urban flooding from greater Providence to South Kingstown. Several roads were closed. In Providence, the rain collapsed the third-floor ceiling of an apartment buildingm displacing 14 people. Washington Street in Coventry was closed with two feet of water on the roadway.
The heavy rainfall also resulted in minor flooding on the Pawtuxet River. At Cranston, the river crested at 9.5 feet, which was just over its flood stage of 9 feet.
Significant coastal flooding also occurred as a result of the storm. In Jamestown, moderate coastal flooding was reported on Conanicus Avenue, where waves crashed over the sea wall and littered the roadway with rocks and seaweed. A 30-foot boat was torn from its mooring and was pushed up against the wall. In Newport, a park on Wellington Avenue was flooded. A portion of Ocean Avenue was also flooded. In Portsmouth, flooding was reported on Park Avenue. Coastal flooding occurred on Boston Neck Road in Narragansett. In Warwick, moderate coastal flooding affected Pawtuxet Cove, where a boat house was surrounded by water and Peck Lane had minor flooding.
