Low pressure moved to the New Jersey coast on the 14th of February and rapidly intensified as it moved through the Gulf of Maine early on the 15th. Storm force northerly winds over the coastal waters allowed for near shore waves to build to nearly 20 feet off Rockingham County. The Hampton tide gage reached it flood stage of eleven feet. This led to flooding of side streets in the Back Bay area, causing minor water damage of local homes.
