ct_yankee Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Just back from Hford, saw crazy damage in Wallingford/N.haven area where that big area of rotation crossed 91. Trees down everywhere, had to exit onto rt.5, power out, debris all over the place... Strongly suspect tor might have gone thru that area after looking at radar.

weatherwiz Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 What a crazy day. We went to the park and talked and I was explaining to her about the storms and then we went to a diner and about 5 minutes later power went out and all hell broke lose. She even took video of the storm too and laughed when I ran outside and got drenched. She went crazy when it started hailing and even picked up some pieces. Her house though and town got hit very hard. Trees all over her front yard uprooted and same in the back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 We faired pretty well in my neighborhood. A few blocked streets and snapped maples and pines, but nothing on houses that I saw. Power is still on. Unfortunately, it looks like my uncle is going to spend the night at an elementary school with 20 kids and their after-school teachers, as their route out is impossibly blocked by fallen trees and crews won't be able to get in to them until tomorrow.

Damage In Tolland Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Friends are trapped at CFC complex in Bethany. Said they have to stay the night inside the bubble. Said doors were sucking in and out and looks like apocalypse outside with pieces of roof in lot. Likely TOR from Bethany to Hamden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 CAM, LEWP? Never seen those acronyms before. No thunderstorm action here. Just some showers and a cool afternoon after a bright, sunny start. As a homeowner now, I could do without the severe, especially large hail as it will destroy your asphalt shingles and siding. I still do love a good summer storm though.

StormSurge Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 From Hoth’s other neck of the woods on Fishers Island. It weakened shortly after moving over the water but this was cool to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah for those who don’t know: CAM = convection allowing model LEWP = line echo wave pattern, similar to QLCS (quasi linear convective system) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianW Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Using google maps traffic data you can really see where most of the storm damage was. Looks like Danbury straight east to Wallingford got hit really hard. Lots of damage around Southbury as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
