The episode as NWS GYX wrote it up.
Low pressure passing west of New England set up a modest southerly wind flow gradually increasing seas. The highest astronomical tides of the month combined with the increasing seas to produce minor coastal flooding across isolated locations in southwest Maine. The tide in Portland Harbor topped out right at the 12.0 foot flood stage, resulting in very minor flooding of side streets along the wharfs. In Biddeford, very minor flooding occurred alongside Granite Point Road.
