CoastalWx Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Pretty weak sauce severe season overall region wide, but at least there’s been some action. Some areas got a few good storms over the last 6-8 weeks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Haven't seen any storm report totals, but what I experienced between FRaminingham and Boston/Cambridge sure must have dropped some big totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing crazy, but active. A bit better towards BOS and just south of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure any of it is a tornado though It's definitely going to be a tornado. I'm following along as BOX uploads the damage points into our system, and it looks like mostly (all?) tree damage. High end EF0/low end EF1 type stuff. The still photo in the tweet above you can get the sense of what BOX is looking for beyond the damage itself. You can see the downed trees, while chaotic, are crossing paths showing convergent wind vs divergent straight line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said above, my sister in law lives 2 streets over from Kennedy circle and there isn’t so much as a twig down there. couldn’t have been very wide or on the ground very long.

Based on the warning motion vector and the damage path, it was on the ground for around 8 or 9 minutes. Which matches the TDS, it was there for two scans which is at least 4 minutes but not quite 10. It's also clear that this wasn't continuously on the ground either. There are lots of roads it crossed without any damage indicated by BOX so far. So a weaker circulation that was "skipping" is likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah most of the time the tornado path looks like it's around 300 yard (but some of that could be RFD damage, hard to say when it's all sporadic trees), and at its widest around 450 yards. From the centerline to Ridgewood was nearly 3/4 of a mile. Far enough that could've been NBD. Given the environment, the RFD would've been the next windiest part of the storm, and a good deal south of Ridgewood. This wasn't the type of storm with a massive forward flank wind on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really match what the radar said, with a two scan TDS for Easton that's more than 400 yards. And Brockton definitely had a TDS too. Microburst don't throw debris into the air. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
