On May 23rd, a strong coastal low
pressure system developed just off the
Maine coast. High astronomical tides
combined with strong northeast winds
and large ocean waves to produce wind
damage, coastal flooding and beach
erosion. The tide gauge in Portland

slightly above the 12.0 foot flood
stage. Coastal flooding occurred in
both York and Cumberland Counties, with
a significant flood inundation in the
Camp Ellis area. Damage to public and
private property was estimated to be
about a million dollars. Shore road in
Saco was washed away. Gooch's Beach in
Kennebunk had its seawall damaged. In

A strong coastal storm brought high
winds to much of eastern Massachusetts,
which brought down trees and power
lines, especially on Cape Cod and the
islands where winds gusted as high as
60 mph on Nantucket. About 12,000
electric customers were left without
power during the storm.
In addition, moderate coastal flooding
was reported from Salem to Cohasset and
Hull. Several coastal roadways were
closed due to flooding around the time
of high tide.
One injury was directly related to the
high winds. In Brockton, a woman was
driving along West Street when a tree
fell onto her car, smashing the
windshield and dislocating her
shoulder.

An unusually usual late season and long
duration nor'easter brought strong
winds, heavy rainfall, and coastal
flooding to eastern Massachusetts. A
preliminary check suggested this was
the worst late May winterlike
nor'easter since May 25-26, 1967.
Although most wind gusts were reported
between 45 and 55 mph, some gusts
estimated as high as 60 mph brought
down trees and power lines over a large
area. At least 20,000 electric
customers lost service at various times
during this storm. As a consequence
of saturated ground and trees with
foliage, the impact of the wind was
greater than what would normally be
expected by these wind speeds.
Moderate coastal flooding occurred
during two high tide cycles. Numerous
shore roads along the eastern
Massachusetts coast were flooded to the
extent of being impassible for a time.
Considerable rock and sand debris were
washed onto shore roads, and there were
spotty reports of damage to structures.
No injuries were directly related to
the storm.

Record breaking cold settled over the
Midwest during the early morning hours
of 3 May 2005. The cold was of such
intensity that all time record minimums
for the month of May were tied or
shattered at most first order stations
and many co-operative stations. Farmers
that took advantage of the unseasonably
mild weather during the first half of
April had to replant after crops were
killed off by the freeze. In some
cases, crops had to be replanted even
though the growing point was below the
surface. This was due to the soil being
a sandy loam which allowed freezing
temperatures to penetrate into the
ground.

A major late season winter storm
affected a portion of northeast Montana
beginning late in the afternoon on the
11th, and continued
until mid-morning on the 12th. The
storm produced a widespread swath of 8
to 12 inches of snow. A strong upper
level low pressure system in Wyoming
tracked north across the area during
the night while at the same time an
arctic high built south out of Canada
and supplied the cold air. The snow
was accompanied by generally light
wind so blowing and drifting snow were
not a problem with this storm. I-94
from Glendive to Terry was closed for
a time. Some of the more impressive
snowfall amounts across northeast
Montana included:
32 miles north of Terry (Dawson
County): 12 inches

An unusually usual late season and long
duration nor'easter brought strong
winds, heavy rainfall, and coastal
flooding to eastern Massachusetts. A
preliminary check suggested this was
the worst late May winterlike
nor'easter since May 25-26, 1967.
Although most wind gusts were reported
between 45 and 55 mph, some gusts
estimated as high as 60 mph brought
down trees and power lines over a large
area. At least 20,000 electric
customers lost service at various times
during this storm. As a consequence
of saturated ground and trees with
foliage, the impact of the wind was
greater than what would normally be
expected by these wind speeds.
Moderate coastal flooding occurred
during two high tide cycles. Numerous
shore roads along the eastern
Massachusetts coast were flooded to the
extent of being impassible for a time.
Considerable rock and sand debris were
washed onto shore roads, and there were
spotty reports of damage to structures.
No injuries were directly related to
the storm.

Record breaking cold settled over the
Midwest during the early morning hours
of 3 May 2005. The cold was of such
intensity that all time record minimums
for the month of May were tied or
shattered at most first order stations
and many co-operative stations. Farmers
that took advantage of the unseasonably
mild weather during the first half of
April had to replant after crops were
killed off by the freeze. In some
cases, crops had to be replanted even
though the growing point was below the
surface. This was due to the soil being
a sandy loam which allowed freezing
temperatures to penetrate into the
ground.

A major late season winter storm
affected a portion of northeast Montana
beginning late in the afternoon on the
11th, and continued
until mid-morning on the 12th. The
storm produced a widespread swath of 8
to 12 inches of snow. A strong upper
level low pressure system in Wyoming
tracked north across the area during
the night while at the same time an
arctic high built south out of Canada
and supplied the cold air. The snow
was accompanied by generally light
wind so blowing and drifting snow were
not a problem with this storm. I-94
from Glendive to Terry was closed for
a time. Some of the more impressive
snowfall amounts across northeast
Montana included:
32 miles north of Terry (Dawson

slow moving and produced several inches
of rain in Maine from the 21 st through
the end of the month. Rainfall ranged
from 2 to 4 inches during this time
period with a few locations receiving
over 5 inches. Already swollen rivers
and streams responded quickly and once
again flooded due to the additional
rainfall. River and stream flooding
began on the 24th of May and lasted
until the 29th. Many roads were closed
due to washouts from intense runoff as
well as rising rivers and streams.
The Presumpscot River at Westbrook rose

Storm Surge
An unusually usual late season and long
duration nor'easter brought strong
winds, heavy rainfall, and coastal
flooding to eastern Massachusetts. A
preliminary check suggested this was
the worst late May winterlike
nor'easter since May 25-26, 1967.
Although most wind gusts were reported
between 45 and 55 mph, some gusts
estimated as high as 60 mph brought
down trees and power lines over a large
area. At least 20,000 electric
customers lost service at various times
during this storm. As a consequence
of saturated ground and trees with
foliage, the impact of the wind was
greater than what would normally be
expected by these wind speeds.
Moderate coastal flooding occurred
during two high tide cycles. Numerous
shore roads along the eastern
Massachusetts coast were flooded to the
extent of being impassible for a time.
Considerable rock and sand debris were
washed onto shore roads, and there were
spotty reports of damage to structures.
No injuries were directly related to
the storm.

MOZ009>010
Frost/Freeze
Record breaking cold settled over the
Midwest during the early morning hours
of 3 May 2005. The cold was of such
intensity that all time record minimums
for the month of May were tied or
shattered at most first order stations
and many co-operative stations. Farmers
that took advantage of the unseasonably
mild weather during the first half of
April had to replant after crops were
killed off by the freeze. In some
cases, crops had to be replanted even
though the growing point was below the
surface. This was due to the soil being
a sandy loam which allowed freezing
temperatures to penetrate into the
ground.

Heavy Snow
A major late season winter storm
affected a portion of northeast Montana
beginning late in the afternoon on the
11th, and continued
until mid-morning on the 12th. The
storm produced a widespread swath of 8
to 12 inches of snow. A strong upper
level low pressure system in Wyoming
tracked north across the area during
the night while at the same time an
arctic high built south out of Canada
and supplied the cold air. The snow
was accompanied by generally light
wind so blowing and drifting snow were
not a problem with this storm. I-94
from Glendive to Terry was closed for
a time. Some of the more impressive
snowfall amounts across northeast
Montana included:
32 miles north of Terry (Dawson
County): 12 inches
Carlyle (Wibaux County): 10 inches
6 miles southeast of Wibaux (Wibaux
County): 10 inches
