DeVries Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 So Springfield area has 2 tornadoes and a funnel cloud this year.. please don't complain about the CT river valley screw done in the first noreaster! Right, because people in this area are constantly complaining about a lack of snowfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 lol...the last 2 frames totally bent me over. The cell had been going due ESE until then when it decided to back to eastward. It looked impressive watching it race due east to my north though. Drats. Oh no, I jinxed you.... There seems to be something about the area from Winnipesaukee down south to MHT this year(and years past) that things really just fall apart. Noticed it on radar several times this year. Not sure if its lower areas of shear,CAPE or dryer air or even none of the above. Just got interested in severe this past year so I'm still having to admit to a bit of a learning curve. Actually looks like the change in direction was caused when that other storm off to our east on the ME/NH border strengthened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 That hail in CEF is impressive. All those leaves being stripped by the hail is usually done from at least quarter sized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamrivers Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 where is this from? who is this "guy" Don't report it. I think it's BS. There was a man that came by in a pickup truck when I was taking a few pictures, saying he saw a tornado. He is mistaking straight line winds for a tornado.... I was about a mile east of here when the straight line came through, and they were very clearly were straight line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
