I think it's over for extreme stripping of leaves next year. Considered yourself lucky. Talked to a couple friends who rode through SE Ma and RI on bikes and said the moths are much worse than last year. Nasty here in Metro-West Boston.

OceanStWx Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 It must've been tough seeing the meso be strongest just before and after Tolland. If I'm being generous I could squeeze out a Vr shear of 20 knots east of Stafford Springs, but that's still on the marginal side for a TOR. The Mansfield tornado was closer to the 25 knot threshold you like to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 What an incredible day weather-wise. Spent most of the day in S RI, kayaking on the Narrow River, enjoying Jamestown. Would not mind a few more like today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 How anyone could not like this weather we've been having this summer is beside me. Chamber day after chamber day.

CapturedNature Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 I was reading the Wikipedia article on the '38 Hurricane this morning and a sentence jumped out to me: "It was only the third hurricane to strike New England since 1635." I guess it depends on ones definition of "strike" because Wikipedia lists dozens of storms between 1635 and 1938 but I thought I would through it out to the collective minds here to validate that statement. Were there only three land falling hurricanes between 1635 and 1938? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
