Low pressure moving slowly northeastward to just east of Nantucket Island brought high tides and large waves to the extreme southwestern coast of Maine. In Kennebunkport, Harris Street was flooded with rocks left covering the roadway. In Camp Ellis, a foot of water covered four of the roads. The ponds at Fortunes Rocks were also reported to have flooded.
