Another dumping flooding downpour. My area is a magnet for storms this season. If there's a chance, it's happening here lol.

Hearing on Holden FD dispatch of damage near Bailey Rd, power lines off houses; looks to be in line with the area of rotation coming from Paxton along Rt 31

Yeah! That’s him.

That blows. 0.38" and looks to be done soon. Sent from my SM-S921U using Tapatalk

Another area of broad rotation just NE of Kev near Ashford on 84

looks to be still some rotation with the Holden cell. Going to come really close to here so definitely watching it.

Just came my closest ever to a lightning bolt, and I've experienced some close ones. Was at a softball practice in Ludlow, and the tumultuous sky, darkening off to the northwest and north had my attention-- and checking the NWS saw there was a tornado warned cell to the northwest. So practice over I decided to try a little intercept for whatever might be, and was driving my appropriately named F150 Ford Lightning north along Lyons street towards Granby with the front windows open. That route affords some pretty good views off to the west, and I could see the ragged lined edge of the rain off there, but though under forbidding skies-- not a drop yet where I was. Then, I swear, not 20 or 30 feet off, directly to the right out my front side window a sizzling bolt-- bamm-- and I could feel the shock of it- or was it just the adrenaline buzz of such a close hit? Just reminder again that especially in dynamic developing situations, bolts out of the blue can and do happen. I continued on, a half mile or so further, then another close bolt, and then blotto, visibility down to near zero. As I write back home in Monson, we just had another strike not far to the south that got our dog's attention. All in all I would say aside being ground zero in the May microburst, this has been the most consequential thunderstorm event in a summer that has been woefully lacking in such.

Nah mate go to spec savers innit Gefs and eps stalls the mjo in phase 8/1 like if it’s your annoying nan Wcar and gulf show a shit ton of moisture being pulled in within 10-12 days so the atmosphere turns from Karachi to Phuket mjo enhances convection in the western part of the basin in comes Gabby and the burrito innit

Is that thing tornado warned because people live there?

Wow, im at 1.12"

Dick Hertz from Holden?

dont feel bad same here.

Ditty breaks my rain total going back to July in just 10 minutes

Sun trying to break out here. Picked up. .25” in the thunderstorm.

It almost couldn’t outline HoCo better

It's going to take until stratiform rain season starts to get rid of the dryness around here

Dp here is still 74 got .56” radar looks like we’re done

They consider a TDS to be confirmation these days. At least I've seen the 'confirmed' language many times with just a TDS.

Bastardi making the daring prediction that 'the season isn't over' when it's not even September 10th yet lol

About 0.65" in my part of Somerset (Franklin Twp). Pretty intense storm, borderline severe, with some hail mixed in. Not a ton of thunder when it get here. Lots of small branches (and a few large ones) down in my neighborhood. Township is actually requesting no unnecessary travel, so think some damage was worse in other parts of town. Definitely glad to have some good rains over the past few days (over an inch here as well).

hopefully a downpour or two.

light sprinkles and distant thunder. just as planned!

At least its raining!

She seems to be ok though thank God..

Ruins the day though. More economical on a Saturday to do it fast ha.
