Typhoon Tip Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 an interesting albeit tedious aspect about this whole ordeal is that mid/ua trough axis stays anchored well west. This front doesn't clear the coast very far over the next 3 days and then frontalysis' there. In fact, the dopey range of the NAM actually tries to buckle it back west toward the coast by 84 hours. that fact that most models to some degree or less offer the same evolution, that makes me wonder if the threat might diminish a bit up this way because the dynamics are will weakening.

Mr Torchey Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Winds are fun, lots of small to medium branches are down at least on my route to pick up my son from daycare.....this being one of the bigger ones, I would think we are gusting to tropical storm force now on a pretty regular basis.

Damage In Tolland Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm getting some solid 40-45 mph gusts here in Hammonasset (Madison). I'm at about the more exposed possible point near a jetty that sticks out into the sound. We're tentatively scheduled to do a live hit with the weather channel around 540. On your Davis?

powderfreak Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 On your Davis? 40+ on a Davis in a wooded neighborhood near ground level would be some pretty damn impressive winds. That would be causing some damage if he's getting low 40s even with frictional effects in his wooded neighborhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 This is going to take a long, long time to unfold. the individual pretty bright red rad images are zipping up the line/line segments quickly, but they segments them selves are taking their time getting E. 45 min of loop looks to be about 12 to 15 miles, so we're talking 20mph of actual system translation speed. It's 150 miles+west of us so that's 6 hours or so at current timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Nice, local news 12 showing lots of tree damage.....winds really cranking looking back to the west seems like we are going to rock and roll for the next 5 hours especially just ahead of the squall line.

I normally shave 30% off people's wind estimates... including some mets lol Yeah exactly you have to really plant your feet in that kind of wind. And when you get up toward 40 g 60 it is really hard to stay still. You frequently get knocked off balance. It's also amazing what gusts to 40-45 can do when you have leaves and rain with respect to damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
