Tornadomachine Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I went on my first ever tornado chase today, got pics of the funnel cloud over West Concord from School St. I was directly under it with about 15 other cars on a ridge on fruitlands. Got some terrible smartphone video too, I really need a video camera. And to be less excited about it touching down in a populated area... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthCoastMA Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 that looks like scud, based on the other pics. but i'm no expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 that looks like scud, based on the other pics. but i'm no expert. Definitely looks like scud...maybe there was some rotation with the wall cloud. Most of us in New England don't have a lot of experience observing meso's and funnels vs scud though. It's like someone in the SE reporting +++SN with a 1SM vis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta love that closed 546 dm low mid July near Ottawa. Guessing a crisp airmass would follow, and out ahead, hmmmm..... Usually I'd only pay to lock up a run in the winter, but this might qualify.

Damage In Tolland Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 If thAt even came close to verifying which it will end up massively modified, that would be one hell of a Severe and/ or TOR outbreak in the northeast with a closed low to our west Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 The cooler air definitely is Midwest centric. But, it's gonna be one of those things where we have dews followed by fropa with hopefully some action. The means will probably have too much spread to determine dailies this far out.

I hope this whole pattern ends up as advertised, and not some meh muted version It could be depending on the orientation. Or, it could be just a deep trough with skinny CAPE crap on the east side of it. I gotta imagine a trough that deep is good for at least western SNE and NNE.
