ORH_wxman Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Is the tree damage limbs? branches? or actual trees down? Probably uprooted and thrown 100s of feet. You can call in the whole forest destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Mt grandmother lives on Leo Dr in Chicopee and she had several decent size trees blown over and had pretty good size hail it sounds like...... Would it be possible if your grandmother could get pictures, email them to you and you could post them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 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 It probably is...just sent along for the precaution with all details you listed...that's why my follow up question was asking what type of tree damage it was...just branches/limbs or trees down.

Damage In Tolland Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Well I drove Union from south to north and back..and found a safe spot tucked into a corner parking lot..saw some small hail and alot of CG ..some wind..but nothing severe and no funnels. There's more damage in my hood than Union..Yard is littered with dead limbs and leaves..and it blew my recycle bin I had out by the street over and blew newspapers and crap everywhere.

downeastnc Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Would it be possible if your grandmother could get pictures, email them to you and you could post them? LOL no she is 86 and has no PC, I can tell you these were decent size trees the one in back was snapped in half and it was 50ft tall at least. The one in front was 30ft and was uprooted. I will try and get pics I am sure my uncle will take some when he goes to have them removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
