Just saw a live Facebook video from sleeping giant state park in Hamden. Massive tree damage there.

This picture was taken from the tower at the above park.

Friend in North Haven just sent me these. This was at Wharton Brook State Park.

Google maps traffic data from yesterday. The main wind damage swath is pretty evident. 

Using google maps traffic data you can really see where most of the storm damage was. Looks like Danbury straight east to Wallingford got hit really hard. Lots of damage around Southbury as well.

This is done for central and western CT. People reporting on Facebook it's full sun in western ct. 

WTNH just downgraded a good chunk of CT to 0-3 inches. This is busting huge out this way.

February 9th 2013 woke up to this in Wallingford, CT.....

Just got a ton of reports from friends//family of some good sightings of the Orionid Meteors tonight along the CT shoreline.

One of the year's best sky shows will peak this weekend between Oct. 20 and 22, when the Orionid meteor shower reaches its best viewing. The meteors that streak across the sky are some of the fastest and brightest among meteor showers, because the Earth is hitting a stream of particles almost head on.

If the rest of this summer is any indication we will probably be screwed by clouds here but I have my fingers crossed. it will be a race against time tomorrow night with the next approaching system. 

I lived in South Hero for a few years. The causeway is a good spot for viewing. Saw the lights a few times from there. Awesome wide open view looking north.

TORCH!!

Enjoy!

With the persistent SW flow, dewpts will continue to slowly rise
overnight, up to the upper 50s to lower 60s by around daybreak.

The Bermuda high takes up residence along the mid Atlc and SE
U.S. coast, setting up for our first day of hazy, hot and humid
weather across the region.

NWS Boston bumped it to 90.

Thursday...

A mid summer-like day appears to be in the cards for much of the
region. A very mild start with 850T around +16C coupled with
southwest flow should yield a very warm to hot afternoon. High
temperatures will likely reach near 90 away from a modified marine
airmass across portions of RI/SE MA and especially the Cape/Islands.
Dry weather will dominate Thu as forcing will be limited, but can
not rule out the low risk for a few afternoon/evening T-storms on
a pre-frontal trough.

So...the take away is that 87 = 90 to 95    ?

 

Yep. I think Kevin is right.  BDL will be 90+...
