adamrivers Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 How far away is Bridge St from the RR station? 15-20 feet. Also just took a drive down there, there is an uprooted tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 That doesn't look like it was from today https://www.facebook.com/mmpartee?sk=wall Morriss Partee Yes, this damage happened today. A passerby told me that this section was ready to fall; there was no internal structure holding it together. That red stuff you see on the hill are the bricks of the wall that must have come tumbling down. 36 minutes ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamrivers Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 From Rec Park IJD Interesting, I was literally on Route 14 right across from Rec Park around the same time. And took this looking towards North Windham... Tweeted it. I believe the direction is NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoob40 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Wife said it was pretty nasty here when it blew through. Looks like I was on the periphery of the damage with most of it to my north and east with some good sized trees down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapturedNature 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. Same in Stafford. I also drove around the northeastern part of town and northwestern part of Union and didn't see any thing. More damage in the streets around my house than there and that's where the tornado warning was. So, I don't think what it was still intact when that cell crossed into CT. BTW, one street near my house was under construction and is a wash out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Tip and Kevin will totally disagree but ten days ago I said the recurving typhoon would change the weather pattern and there would be a severe outbreak, but just coincidence I guess.

CapturedNature Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I was in that tiny commuter lot right alongside 84 at exit 74 to ride it out I was in Springfield as the cell was just to my north and I was trying to get home but a cell can travel quicker than a vehicle from Springfield to Stafford! FWIW, We had 1.2" of rain in 10 minutes. My wife reported no hail here too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamrivers Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 locals tell me that the roof blew off of this building (Bridge Street) and was all over Bridge Street, quickly cleaned up by Willi Public works but you can still see some of the roof hanging over the side. Other pictures are trees in the general vicinity. All are facing the same direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
