Interesting, but that buoy doesn't report gusts, and its not that
close to City
Island. Here's a report form the Merchant Marine Academy at King's
Point, about
2 or 3 mile from booby:

The accompanying ASCII data does show some gusts in the low 20's.

According to NOAA records for W. LIS, it never got over 24 kts.,
from
9/26 - 9/29, if I'm reading this graph correctly
