JC-CT Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 20 minutes ago, powderfreak said: Yeah not surprising. I still am in shock with how much debris can come out of trees with 20+ gusts. Would’ve thought they were stripped already from all the events in the past decade. The scud aloft was absolutely flying though. Reminds me of those 925mb wind progs shared on here…. Watching leaves gently sway at 5-15mph while it’s like 40kts sustained at like 2,000ft. Yeah, it just never really mixed down at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 It does seem like there is a swath in eastern CT that is a mess right now, myself included. But widespread, no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have been delusional for days now on the scope of the impact of this event. Like I said yesterday, the want for a hurricane or significant tropical impact severely clouded the judgement of folks on here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if my power isnt restored today. Probably a 15 mile wide area that had good stuff. Some wicked gusts here but widely spaced apart in timing and area. Slow moving TS over cold water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just busting, I do appreciate your forecasts and information. I was never really high on this event.

tavwtby Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 winds picking up in this squall, just gusted over 25, sustained at 10-15 now, 1.15" so far, was expecting 2-3", see what the next few hours brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I'll tell you something though, it is still absolutely pouring under what looks like very weak radar returns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonkis Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Not a huge impact away from the coast. Looks like southern RI got roughed up a bit. 1.24" total rain A couple of hours of 25-35 mph sustained winds max gusts in upper 40s breezy with some drizzle rn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 And I'm not surprised this came in as a TS. Models were showing that for days. It had a brief window yesterday to blow up when the eye started clearing out but never happened. Models generally showed a mid-cat 1 when it crossed the Gulf Stream, and then weakening as it kept going north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there hasn’t been any rain yet. Not complaining though , and I understand that other people didn’t get as fortunate as me. Damn, been pouring all day across the sound from you in Suffolk County, LI. Few gusts to 30, but the rain very impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 7 minutes ago, Ginx snewx said: Emass interior peeps, ya know the routine. Gust to 45 or so here. Power flickered on and off but so far so good. Happy this didn't explode over the gulf stream Glad someone inland verified at 45 lol. Drove down to Misquamicut and had to stop short of the beach. When the core was coming in the flooding was everywhere. Looks like everything down there got shut down shortly after I turned back as roads became impassible and I watched the center come in through Westerly. Good wind, but the best stuff would have been right on the shore. Got a low pressure reading of 994.5mb in Westerly. Drove back through SE CT and intersected the center again. Very heavy rain. I-91 in Wallingford closed to flooding and Rt 2 in eastern CT closed as well. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems enough without power in CT that it was an impactful system. It’s only our street. We had a tree come down three weeks ago and took out our little dead end street. The power company had to restring the wire on the street. Left the old cable in a pile in our neighbors yard and never came back. Now the same neighbors are out again and we keep hearing power arcing. So I wonder if it was a bad repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
