Low pressure moving up the St Lawrence Valley swung a pair of cold fronts through Massachusetts and Rhode Island, with one in the morning and the second in the afternoon. Wind Advisories were in effect for strong northwest gradient wind gusts to 40 to 50 mph, which knocked down trees and branches. Thunderstorms with some heavy downpours also occurred along each front but only a couple were considered to be severe based on enhanced wind signatures; the majority of the damage occurred from the gradient wind.
