October 2021 had gusts to 50-60 mph in NYC, further out east. 100+ mph gusts in Cape Cod. That was wild. January 2022 blizzard had gusts to 35-40 (borderline blizzard in NYC), and gusts to 80s in east Mass. These events are pretty rare but they're pretty impactful when they happen. 

The biggest non-tropical wind event for my particular area that I remember was March 2, 2018. The difference with that event is that the wind was sustained, not just in gusts like it usually is. It roared all day into the night and I believe that one had a sting jet also.

What I am saying is that these RI events can be sneaky and surprise us.  I am not talking a Dec 9, 2005 repeat.  But wind is wind, so is a sting jet.

And don't you recall?  Did anyone have a clue even that morning on Dec 9, 2005 what was going to happen?  I recall it was a just going to be a run-of-the-mill 4-8" event N of the Pike!  Only the Dec 23, 1997 ++SN (the BOS Herald "THEY BLEW IT!" event, rivals the Dec 2005 surprise!  CoastalWx's favorite though is the early March 2013 event.  Sfc low 600 mi out, and Blue Hill gets 30"!  Biggest bust ev-A!

And we know we are in an ideal position from a longwave pattern POV to take full advantage of systems moving through.  The building blocks are there, so that's why I am cautiously optimistic here it could be a good weenie event!  :weenie:

G70?  The 12z HRRR showed that easily right offshore in ern MA.  G70 is nothing compared to the G100 on the S Coast for the Dec 2005 storm.  You do realize that about the only time low elevations of New England get G100 is w/ hurricanes.  It's quite rare in winter storms.
 

are you talking wind or snow?  I recall that storm well and snowfall was very well-forecasted, as were winds...besides the really high-end reports.  NWS at least, didn't hit on the far SE/ CC wind impacts but that was extraordinary. Great storm
