That cell about to enter the Greenwich/Stamford area should be looked at closely

HRRR once again comes through

Most impressive lightning this year yet here. Very consistent and loud.

Yeah man...I'm right across the river from you. Core just passed right over. Multiple close strikes. Not fun.

Now North Granby

That cell near Barkhamsted looks interesting

Today has played out perfectly! Figured the 3km NAM was right with the initial round with the HRRR being right with the second round. 

Yeah. HRRR on point right now with timing and 2nd round development.

Both those storms are rotating . One over NW CT and other near New Milford 

Yeah. That storm straddling MA/CT has my attention.

That backside of cell about to enter Litchfield has some decent structure. Showing signs of rotation.

No way there was a tor in Windsor... It looked all straight line.... 

I don't know. Signature on radar and a wall cloud spotted from Broadbrook would suggest it's possible something came down.

Might drive up to the Rt. 2 area later on, NAM wants to crush it. 

Definitely. Between this and the HRRR, I'm looking at Hampshire county for today. Could get nasty. 5/6PM

I think it's going to be a pretty interesting period between 6-11 tonight. I am not very confident in how widespread convection will be but I think we'll see some marginal supercell structures. Would like to see a bit more shear but I think there is room for a brief tornado this evening across northern CT

I agree

HRRR looks juicy today.

I am not able to. I am not friends with the person so it won't let me. My friend found it on an Enfield, CT form 

Wondering if this is the post you were referencing... Snapshot below with link included to the video.

Looks like a wall cloud for sure. It would line up with that area of rotation that passed through the east side of Windsor earlier.

Came across a video on Facebook taken in Broadbrook. Looks like a definite wall cloud. Can’t comment or share post though since I’m not a friend damn 

 

Can you post the link please

I'll tell you what....HRRR was on par today.

Pretty decent signature in Windsor some time ago...

Awesome pics

This was the UMass radar a minute or two beforehand.  

 

I appreciate you. Definitely confirms what I was seeing.

Here's my contribution from Wednesday. These images were taken on the Northampton/Hadley line off of 91N.

This particular cell had shown signs of rotation earlier in the afternoon as it crossed into MA, and as it continued unobstructed towards favorable territory near I91.

Given its structure, and presence of an inflow notch, I decided to pursue and set up south of its heading. This is looking towards its Southwestern most corner.

My internet had dropped so I didn't have access to radar or velocity profiles, but I'd be interested in seeing what it would have looked like in this timeframe on KENX, KBOX and the UMASS radar. Pictures were taken around 4:41pm.

Interesting day to say the least.

Looking better again 

Not even close

Definitely  on tornado otg with that storm heading for Danbury

Definitely not on the ground man. It's broad rotation at most in the shot.

Just now, DotRat_Wx said:

No idea why the new haven rotation isn't warned

Its up now

Definitely a wall cloud over Waterbury.

Nasty cell SE of Hartford

Just took a very nasty ride from Enfield through Longmeadow  MA to my parents house on the border on the border with Springfield.  Multiple detours , numerous trees and branches down, several trees hanging over wires, a couple wires on fire,  debris falling on the car definitely adrenaline-pumping. 

Can confirm. Trees down everywhere and the wind is still ripping every few mins
