powderfreak Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Be careful this summer, lawnmower crash deaths are on the rise. http://www.wptz.com/news/vermont-new-york/burlington/man-dies-in-lawnmower-crash/26830130?tru=baUO3l#ixzz36ogx5OzS Investigation revealed that Lynn was traveling east on his John Deere lawn mower when he drove off the roadway and crashed down a small embankment. As a result of the crash, Lynn sustained serious injuries and was transported to Rutland Regional Medical Center for treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Every third post on my twitter feed is something about the polar vortex... largely from degreed and renowned meteorologists.I'm beginning to think we'll never again be able to talk about an upper-trough without having to endure polar vortex hype.

Exceptions may be like 6/1/2011 and other notable NW flow events. Otherwise too many subtle things can change and screw up everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's what I mean...it's the same when talking about day 6 threats for snow too. I admit I haven't followed this in depth as you or others may have, but to me this always looked like one of those deep trough srly flow events with spin-up type threat from low LCLs and maybe wind damage from bowing segments. I think it's hard to get anything more than that with these events unless somehow we had lots of sunshine which to me isn't going to happen.

ma blizzard Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 000 FXUS61 KBOX 140219 AFDBOX AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA 1019 PM EDT SUN JUL 13 2014 .SYNOPSIS... A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STALL ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH WEDNESDAY YIELDING PERIODS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS APPEAR LIKELY OVER THIS TIME ALONG WITH A HEAVY RAIN/LOCALIZED FLASH FLOOD THREAT. A TREND TOWARD DRIER AND SOMEWHAT LESS HUMID WEATHER FOLLOWS LATE IN THE WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/... 1030 PM UPDATE... VERY DEEP MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION COMBINED WITH SHORT MOVING ACROSS THE UPPER NORTHEAST HAS SPARK SHOWERS ACROSS THE REGION. AS THIS WAVE MOVES AWAY FROM THE REGION THESE SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO WEAK BUT HOLD TOGETHER BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE IN THE ATMOSPHERE. OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...PWATS ARE 1.5-2 INCHES SO A GOOD DOSING OF RAIN WILL FALL. THE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL WILL SHIFT FARTHER SOUTH WHERE THE BETTER INSTABILITY IS LOCATION AS WELL AS THE REGION WHERE THE ATMOSPHERE DIDNT GET WORKED OVER BY THE EVENING CONVECTION. THE RAP MODEL CONTINUES TO INDICATE LINGERING ELEVATED INSTABILITY THROUGH THE NIGHT...SO HAVE KEPT THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IN THE FORECAST ESPECIALLY WHEN THE LLJ BEGINS TO DEVELOP. ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT DEVELOPS WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING WITH HOW HIGH THE PWATS ARE AND HOW MUCH MOISTURE IS IN THE ATMOSPHERE...LIKE A TROPICAL FEEL OUT THERE. OTHERWISE LOWS WILL MAINLY BE IN THE UPPER 60S TO THE LOWER 70S WITH MUGGY CONDITIONS. IN ADDITION...SOME PATCHY FOG AND STRATUS WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT.

Damage In Tolland Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 LOL..the famous Exit 67-68 Bermuda Triangle from someone on FB It seems like at least one driver rolls his or her car over every day between exits 66-68 in one direction or the other on 84E/W, Vernon-Tolland. The highway is straight, good visibility, it's dry...wtf? Just drove by another in west bound lane between 67- 66. There was one yesterday on my way home from work. I actually expect it now and notice when there ISN'T an accident. Any theories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
