Torch Tiger

out and about today and plenty of folks commenting on today's warmth

look out, an incredibly dangerous storm is coming. not good

Yeah it's supply and demand. people want it

most people don't get their information from local outlets but click bait mets, and there is mpst of the disconnect

Never thought much of it but it makes sense 1938 and 1950 were actually on-par for inland winds, just the foliage difference. MWN had similar winds iirc and for mixing and etc. subtleties, they probably weren't far off. '38 probably had tors and microbursts that would maybe be more damaging

Yes we easily gusted 70mph in 2010 (Bedford, NH). Maybe higher but it was difficult to tell because I was inside and iirc it was roughly 10pm-2am. Could hear large trees falling. No power for 10 days. But 1950 adds at least 20-30mph on top

More more more! Get it while gettin is good. Lfg

I was just pointing out an extremely rare example of times winds can rival stronger TS's or canes.. BDR sustained 60mph in 1950 and 74mph in Gloria

Yet you could lop off 20mph from 1950 and it'd still best this. Didn't CON hit 110 ? Lol

or 1950 even without full-leafed trees it would have blown this event out of the water

Doubt we have had more than 1" here

Pedestrian

looks peaceful

Just had a transformer explode very closeby. Gust was like 35 lol

Saw some power flashes in Wilmington and Bedford, a few roads closed. Nothing major
