Very impressive damage summary from BOX from Springfield and adjacent areas!

Very well documented for decades...

Lots of CGs... Including positive strokes that are downright scary!

It's a prolific lightning producer!!! Lots of power surges. Wires down in Burlington...

It's a prolific lightning producer!!! Lots of power surges even though it is still a fair distance southwest.

Storm approaching from the weather office from the southwest! PXL_20260808_000649262.TS.mp4

Certainly not common for hail damage to roofs in New England storms... The number of out of state roofing companies driving around here is crazy... Lots of Texas trucks with guys trying to get folks to file a claim???

Yes, to July 4th... one of the most intense super-cells I have gone through since moving to the Burlington area; I had ~1-inch hail and 57 mph gust but was on the very northern edge of the cell; the wind damage I surveyed in the Harwinton to Bristol area pretty remarkable... My sister's house in Plainville needs to have roof, siding and some windows replace...

Unlike you; I've been lucky and scored several times over the past several weeks...

Quick 0.41" here!

My Davis, siting ~5 feet and over field grass is the highest dp with 61; 3 other sensors at 30 feet are all 57 to 58...

My home sites are good... Have 3 sensors; all in the 57 to 59 range here in Burlington CT...

Yes; for sure...

The areal coverage of +2-inch amounts is easily exceeding other events... I think Wiz's call yesterday was spot on...

Got ya.... Duration argues against widespread flooding issues but parameters, as stated by Wiz, are in place for some localize issues... It's almost always about intensity rates and confidence is rarely high in these situations. The low/mid level moisture surge could easily produce some surprise heavier than modeled zones and forecasters should not sleep on "potential".
