  1. Here's our coverage as the storms moved into the New Haven area. Pretty impressive live shots from Hamden and New Haven in there too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yow0-a_YDe0
  2. Yeah, looks like straight line wind damage to me. Radar matched what I saw on the ground very well... narrow path that reached max strength over North Haven followed by the circulation occluding and a hellacious RFD surge southeast of there. I don't really like the NWS classification of microbursts... this was just a really wide swath of RFD damage.
  3. I wrote about the storm in my blog if anyone's interested. https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/weather-news/on-ryans-radar/august-27-tornado-event/2325826/
  4. We mentioned Leete's Island and Stony Creek a few times on air this afternoon - was a wild looking storm down that way.
  5. Seems like the convection between ALB and BGM is going to help at least temporarily keep the warm front south as it moves toward CT.
  6. Meanwhile, here in reality, Chris's point is very good. Doesn't look like a widespread event but rather a real nasty cluster of storms near and along the warm front. Too far south is capped and too far north is wedged.
  7. There is the potential for some elevated convection NE of the front - watch for some hailers.
  8. This could be a rare upslope event into Litchfield Co CT. It's tough to get it without a good synoptic assist.
  9. To be honest, we get so many bad snowfall reports in the media (some intentional, some not) it's easy to toss the outliers at first.
  10. Nice! Where in Scotland? Josh wants to head up there to take some pictures of the jackpot zone.
  11. Hard to figure out where that western band will setup and pivot. It's definitely scooting east pretty good. Does it continue or does it slow and pivot? Snow is picking up here for sure... probably close to moderate.
  12. Only about 1.5" here so far. We were stuck in that subsidence zone earlier. Blah.
