SRRTA22 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Winds were pushing my friend's car while he was driving. Thankfully the winds were quick and lasted only a couple of minutes. So probably gonna see isolated damage...nonetheless most impressive storm I've seen in years in terms of wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked the radar and see I’m about to get annihilated, totally unexpected. I was riding a bike, on a whim checked the radar and saw a bow of storms closing in on me. Booked it for 15 mins and beat it by 30 secs. Lots of lightning pouring rain wind now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberty, can you elaborate on this? Are you a physician? What types of health problems are you referring to? Pulmonary? Auto-immune issues? The warm water has led some tropical cyanobacteria species to become established in the area. You should look up the stories about the dogs that have died because of it too (none around here yet that I am aware of, but we have seen some of these in the area. Also Vibrio vulnificus was seen in CT, which is usually only seen in warm, salt water. You can read about the case here: https://nypost.com/2019/08/08/connecticut-man-has-leg-amputated-after-contracting-flesh-eating-bacteria/ While my background in vector-borne diseases, I have a colleague studying these more tropical bacteria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
