  1. The funny thing is we pay a huge gas tax that is supposed to maintain those roads. Where does that money go?
  2. Looks like we'll likely have a confirmed tornado from that warned cell in Westport. Impressive video of it coming ashore. Roof ripped off at least one house.
  3. Utility company has been on an extensive campaign of cutting down trees near lines in my town over the last few years. Some neighborhoods look shockingly barren after years of having mature trees shading them. Didn't seem to make that much difference on Tuesday. Plenty of trees fell from well within the property lines and took out the wires.
  4. Lawson's contract brews at least some of their stuff with Two Roads in Stratford.
  5. Stuff coming out of Burlington Brewing is spectacular too.
  6. Same. There was a very impressive maple up the street from me that looks like it was stepped on by a giant. Just shredded, and most of it on my neighbor's house.
  7. Sure did. This area is a mess.
  8. Absolutely. If this is what a mid-range tropical storm can do, I don't want to think about a cat 2 or 3.
  9. I passed quite a few houses in a similar condition on the way home. Even saw some stripped shingles.
  10. By some miracle, my house has power. I have no idea how. There was only one road left for me to get home. I spent the best part of an hour getting detoured by downed trees and burning powerlines. This is the most impressive tree damage I have personally witnessed. Far exceeds anything I saw in Boston in Irene or Sandy. It's a war zone out there.
  11. Getting calls left and right about down trees.
  12. Wind getting really feisty. Just got a report of a tree down on a car
  13. Wind getting strong. We have multiple reports of trees down on our properties.
  14. It's getting real. Power flickering at the office. Tree branches banging against the glass
  15. Notable uptick in wind as the band approaches. Not eye opening yet though.
  16. Delaware and NJ lighting up. Lots of 50kt+ reports.
  17. My folks are out on the island. I've demanded pics/vids later, as it will be a good show on the water.
  18. Rain is light with these storms, but man is the wind roaring through the trees. I hear branches popping and cracking in all directions.
  19. 60 mph winds in Stamford area by the look of it.
  20. I was referring to Levi's nightly video. The site is working fine.
  21. No Tropical Tidbit for tonight. Bummer.
  22. Yep. This looks legit. Those flight level winds on the SE side are eye opening.
