Mr. Windcredible! Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Things just got insane here in the last 15 min. Several gusts to 60mph shaking the house a bit. Some branches down it would seem. Gonna be wild the next couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 keep the awesome obs coming...I'm living this event through you guys right now. Trees basically staying still here for 10 minutes at a time. If someone could take video that'd be awesome. Even I didn't think the winds would be that low in Litchfield County... but you said you're on the NW side of a hill? That'll definitely do it because the low level jet is hitting your hill on the otherside and then rising over your location with very little momentum transfer down due to the rising air.

TalcottWx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 The roar in the trees. Really impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 About 8k out W of the Ct River according to Western Mass Electric. Strongest gusts of the storm currently. http://outage.wmeco.com/outage/outagemap.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I am amazed that the power is still on here in North Coventry, I guess that the tree trimming over the last few weeks is a big help. No real damage here, just a few limbs/branches down here and there and the wind seems a bit lighter than about 1/2 hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomNH Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Just went out for a drive around the neighborhood...hardly any damage at all...somewhat surprising given some of the impressive gusts we've had. Think I lucked out in the power department this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildbs Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 About 8k out W of the Ct River according to Western Mass Electric. Strongest gusts of the storm currently. http://outage.wmeco..../outagemap.aspx Only about 3% of customers.. Many will feel this was far over hyped, at least for our area, and may not heed warnings in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hailstoned Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Ripping in Monson, MA. Best gusts of the day, 50+. Ripping sound of a tree or branch cracking just off to the east. House getting a pine cone pummeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Miser Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Went out to take some photos for my local newspaper to give the editor a hand. Puddingstone Rd., Brookline, MA lol at not using the garage. I'm just going to assume that the guy had too much crap in there and couldn't fit his car in it, and that it's not full with another vehicle. Makes for a better story in my mind that way.

NorEastermass128 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Better quality. This was a tall pine to say the least. And that's the main road (Rt. 3) Thank god no one was hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarveyLeonardFan Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I saw a wind gust report out of Newport's official reporting station of 59 and I agree with it. I'm skeptical of all these 70 plus gusts. The worst of the gusts diminished about an hour ago. I'd say this event was more substantial than Irene. Far more branches down, bigger branches and some uprooted trees. But certainly nothing historic. The storm surge was disappointing. Big waves at the beaches but no major overwash at the beaches.

Graupel Flux Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Had a 45 min power outage in Hebron, CT. 93% of the town was out but it's been restored.....for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno...perhaps its getting more pulse-like. But the strongest of the LLJ was progged for about 5-6pm. We'll see if it pulses back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
