Mr. Windcredible! Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 At 1000 pm all across SCT there was a loud bang and houses shook. No explanation, no earthquake. Thousands of reports. Was pretty mild here...sounded like thunder...house did not shake. It was the same time convection was firing down south across LI...I thought maybe something was just trying to fire overhead. Didn't think much of it until I saw it on Facebook a bit ago. Sonic boom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 There was on reply on one of the posts from NBC30 but I can't find it. Some lady said she lived in Long Island and the weatherman said there was a tornado warning upstate so maybe all the winds came down to CT lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, gonna be a while to clean up. Looks like a meh week overall here. Won't be lousy all the time, but not exactly a warm, sunny week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Unless NNE gets serious RA from tonight's CF, I'm guessing the high water won't do much damage except perhaps from some smaller watercourses. I've yet to hear of serious flooding on larger waterways, caused by just snowmelt, not augmented by significant rain and/or ice jams, in this part of the world. Seems to work differently in the upper midwest - upper Mississippi and Red River of the North. Yeah no big flood issues, especially when the valleys are snow-free. But even still...we got a half inch last night of rain and the noise is impressive this morning. Standing outside at work it's pretty quiet out except for the roar of water pouring off this mountain. Every drainage is running full tilt right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Yes, gonna be a while to clean up. Looks like a meh week overall here.

Damage In Tolland Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Thankfully the Euro will bust on the 7-10 day forecast of misery it had. Not a bad week at all..and certainly glad to be inland away from onshore nonsense. Won't be beautiful,,but should be some nice 60 degree days interspersed.

dendrite Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 By late April I expect to tickle 70F 1-2 days per week. This week won't be terrible, as a whole, but we're still struggling to get real deal warmth up here and it doesn't appear we will anytime soon. We had 80s in mid March last year and I may only get 1 70s through April this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
