Now that you mention that this is a possibility...it was developing into the storm's updraft but I'm not sure how common they are outside of supercell structures. This really though might be more in the way of scud really...sort of ragged looking. I think true beaver tail's are much more organized and have a good solid distinct shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am closer to the MA border than the shoreline by about 5 miles...which would make my town pretty darn close to central from a latitude perspective. But if you have to throw it into a N or S bucket, it is N. I'd bet Steve is slightly N too. Let's just call Tolland the "highlands" and everywhere south and east the "lowlands".

I would think inflow is inflow. If low level moisture is there they can develop. Don't think you need a SC...although a SC tends to draw inflow from further distances creating longer tails...

I did also get it in the video I took so once that's done uploading I'll post...might be easier to verify from video than photo. I hope the video was able to capture the speed of the development. It was awesome. but there was just a ton of inflow going right into the storm...rising clouds/scud all around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the video was able to capture the speed of the development. It was awesome. but there was just a ton of inflow going right into the storm...rising clouds/scud all around I'm sure we realize this, but still an interesting read. Beaver('s) Tail - [slang], a particular type of inflow band with a relatively broad, flat appearance suggestive of a beaver's tail. It is attached to a supercell's general updraft and is oriented roughly parallel to the pseudo-warm front, i.e., usually east to west or southeast to northwest. As with any inflow band, cloud elements move toward the updraft, i.e., toward the west or northwest. Its size and shape change as the strength of the inflow changes. See also inflow stinger. Spotters should note the distinction between a beaver tail and a tail cloud. A "true" tail cloud typically is attached to the wall cloud and has a cloud base at about the same level as the wall cloud itself. A beaver tail, on the other hand, is not attached to the wall cloud and has a cloud base at about the same height as the updraft base (which by definition is higher than the wall cloud). Unlike the beaver tail, the tail cloud forms from air that is flowing from the storm's main precipitation cascade region (or outflow region). Thus, it can be oriented at a large angle to the pseudo-warm front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Interesting! Well I'm not sure how equal it was to the updraft base...sucks about living in this area and can't see entire structure lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 actually it's around 6:15 the strongest gusts came after 10:00...thought it was a little earlier. should have held the camera more to the taller trees that were in the background...they were swaying a little more than these shorter ones right in front of the window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
