CapturedNature Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Here is one website to track MA power outages.... https://www1.nationa...utageMap-MA-RES Here's a portion of Western Mass: http://www.wmeco.com/outage/outagemap.aspx And here's CT: http://www.cl-p.com/outage/outagemap.aspx?sec=fb 37 customers (lol) without power already. I have some other links in the Storm Totals/Damage section that might be helpful along with some obs links on my storm monitoring page, FWIW. I was in the valley for most of the day with the exception of some occasional drizzle it was calm and dry there. It's been breezy and drizzle here which kind of surprised me. Looking forward toward tomorrow!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 50/44 NE 4G10mph Hoping for my first 50mph+ gust on the Davis tomorrow. That would be awesome. I'm testing out a WRF gridpoint extraction script and did one for 10 meter wind gusts (in mph) for your location. Do you have a good wind instrument exposure? (I never manage to live in a place with a yard that works well for wind). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 My best exposure is N-S, but all of the leaves are off the trees and I'm on the NE side of a hill. My winds get knocked down by some tall oaks though. My anemometer is about 40ft up though. This is looking due N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Just a wild precursor to a tropical system. Never got out of the 40s yesterday, and sheet drizzle coming down.

Is your house vulnerable to Oaks? I'm lucky that I don't have any large diameter trees anywhere near my house. Most likely, something could clip the roof.

I'm lucky that I don't have any large diameter trees anywhere near my house. Most likely, something could clip the roof. I am quite concerned about my house. I have a 5 pronged monstrous Oak right in front of my house in front yard. I have a huge tall ,straight white pine off the side of the house to the right of the deck, and another large Oak on the NW facing side of house,,but that one would probably go down the other way since the wind direction is going to be E/se. The white pine really concerns me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaineJayhawk Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 not hiking today? No, this silly storm decided to hit during the workweek. :-( I have my Kestrel and would've liked to find a nice elevated east-facing area to let it rip .... but I'll have to settle for the rocky shore at Cape Elizabeth after work.
