NWS Boston:
The wetter July was due to persistent cyclonic flow/troughiness across the eastern Great Lakes & New England, which led to lower than normal sea level pressures (ie more unsettled/active weather) for our area.

Wow. A wooden boat on Block Island with significant damage as the mooring line sawed through the front on the hull in winds that gusted over 70mph this am.
📷: Gaspard de Millesinge

Also, a sailboat in New Harbor Block Island recorded a wind gust of 64 knots (73.6mph) during the thunderstorm this morning! Wow.

Here’s the yacht that got pulled loose from those 60mph winds in the storm that just blew through Block Island. Several other boats also dragged and hit other boats.
