His wife is stuck and had to head back to her school. Glad he got his damaging event... he lives for that shit, must be in full glory. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Been without power since 6PM or so. Most of the town is out. Winds are cranking. Very thrashy. Our cell service is also abysmal here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowdy2x Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Just had a second round of wind come through Springfield over the last 30mins. Steady 10-20mph with occasional gusts up to 50 (estimating). Dying down for the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSC97wxnut Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Clouds are still ripping overhead. Not much mixing going on though. Occasional 30mph gust, but nothing too outrageous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone-68 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 It was fun to follow and see evolve but really not very thrilling here. On the other hand I have power and internet which is nice too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 ORH gusted back up to 44 knots last update. Still pretty underwhelming for them though. Let’s see if they can rip a 50-55er before the stinger is gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another branch off the hickory about 4 inch diameter maybe 8 feet long full of nuts hit my house since I posted , probably 125 feet from the tree to my house. Crazy, genny running. Not a fan of this.

PowderBeard Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 This is unreal. We have moved to the middle of fhe house. Our living/sun room is getting pelted with branches and had a limb just miss the side of the house. I don't know if it is our exposure on this hill or what. Last hour has been better than Irene was in RI for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Forecast for Hurricane Isaias was very good. Final Call on Saturday night was for landfall near Oak Island, NC on early Tuesday AM with max sustained winds between 75-90MPH. Landfall was at Oak Island, NC with max sustained winds of 85MPH. Only hitch was that it was just BEFORE midnight on Monday night, thus it was not early Tuesday, but rather late Monday evening. Better luck next time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse than Irene here Irene was worse here but this is close. Chainsaws ripping everywhere. I had power right up to the last unbelievable gust. Stronger than the April gust. Thank god for droughtstein, can not imagine if we were saturated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I'd say the feb/March wind storm in early 2020 was a lot more impressive. No leaves though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 No power, no phone, no internet. I was smart and called Verizon this morning figuring this would happen and changed temporary to a daily unlimited data so using phone as hotspot. 25% of the NH Coop does not have power and backside winds are just arriving. Lots of gusts into the 30's but peak wind so far 42mph This is not going to be a quick power outage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 The Lexington - Burlington mass area had about the effects of a winter cold front . Better than not having power thou . Wishing those a speedy power restoration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
