  1. I have much to learn from the language you all use here. I'm just hoping that we'll be safe from this stuff ("damage" as you call it?) down here in central Connecticut. That Tornado Warning yesterday was enough for me for a very long time.
  2. Wow. Well that explains that. People were all like "OMG our cars!!" and I was all like "That's it? Nothing to worry about. That happens all of the time. Never seen much of any damage come out of that!". I mean, I've seen golf ball sized hail. Sounded like boulders hitting the roof.
  3. Well, that's a bit unnerving! A shame I can't look at the radar and tell what's going on myself. You'd think after living in OK and watching soooo many live weather casts during tornadic storms you'd think I'd be able to see a 'couplet' for myself, but when I try to see that stuff outside of when it's pointed to me I'm useless. Point is, if there's any storm nearby, just head for cover, right?
  4. Yeah... I was thinking the same thing about how it smelled in there. Yuck!
  5. Aww! I love guinea pigs! Sadly, not in a place to take one right now. But danggg so some woman had all 51 of those guinea pigs in her apartment?
  6. Thankfully tornado warning expired before going over where I'm living. Still freaked me out! We got small hail. The people around were panicking about it. I assume that means they're not used to hail up here? That hail was small and I was relieved to see that's all we got. lol
  7. I'm from Oklahoma. I'm no stranger to tornado warnings, but I HATE them. They have always scared me to death. Also, I don't know where to find a live weather cast of this tornado warning. Anyone know where I can find that? I'm so new up here, I wasn't prepared for this. =(
  8. AHHH. WHAT?! Noooooo.... I moved up here in part to get away from this nonsense!! *cries*
  9. Yeah, I'm glad I didn't. Growing up I was always obsessed with the weather. My parents thought for sure I was a budding meteorologist. But I took a meteorology course in early college and just didn't find it to be my thing. It appears that what I am fascinated about with weather is not the deeper in-detail science of it. It's very strange to me that it didn't click. So I enjoy weather from a distance, so-to-speak. Not that I went on to get a more marketable degree, so no such luck.
  10. I'm in southern New England, but not on the coast. I expect some humidity. The evenings when first vI got here were very nice, though. I was surprised by how pleasant the weather can get in the evening here. Like one evening it was in the lower 60s and it was amazing! It hasn't been as nice over the past several evenings, but still better than where I came from.
  11. Hi! I'm brand new to the forums and also brand new to the region of New England. I am a former Southerner, hated the climate among many other aspects, so decided to head up north. Since coming up here, it's ended up just feeling like where I came from. Heat, humidity, severe thunderstorms. I don't know how summer normally is like up here, though, as I'm brand new. Looks like being up here won't make me late summer any less.
