Damage In Tolland Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 LOL. I might only get niced (nicked?) by the line. It could be something that gives Chris and Lurker the goods leaving points to the west with rumbles. It's beginning to build back west some though, so that would give me a whole lot more confidence based on the movement. MPM..you should get hit pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 constant thunder, storm might be intensifying a bit. pic looking NNE. Great Pic. MPM..you should get hit pretty good I think you're right. The line of very dark sky to bright is essentially over the Pit now. Wind's picked up and the rumbles are louder. Based on the slow movement and these echos, this could be a drought-buster a couple days earlier than I had expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Well--it's been pretty ho-hum. quick down pour (.06 in just a few minutes) and now it's let up, though more on the way. Thunder has been unimpressive. But, the temps down to 66.8. Glad I held off on my run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Bow Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 bark much worse than bite. downpour, light wind gust, a few bolts of lightning. Had three people call me from MHT and Goffstown all saying they had quite a bit of hail. One said an inch, grandfather said mothball size. I had a few huge raindrops, not even enough to wet the ground. Much nicer out up here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
