Strong wind gusts of 40-50 MPH occurred across portions of Southern New England especially higher terrain and along the coast while wind gusts of 50-55 MPH on Outer Cape Cod occurred Monday Mid-Afternoon and Monday Night. These strong will continue through much of Tuesday and may cause isolated pockets of tree and wire damage and isolated power outages..
