wxmanmitch Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Wow, Mitch. Cool to witness a bolt that close. It's happened to me only a few times. Each one has been very memorable. You didn't happen to run braided copper cable up that tree to 'encourage' its demise?lol I got lots of reports of heavy tree damage in Lee and Stockbridge last night. I didn't go down there today so can't verify how bad it was. How did you fare? Just lots of heavy rain and vivd lightning here. Today's event was just heavy rain and lots of big CG lightning, including the one that hit the tree. We had good dime to penny sized hail around 12:30AM last night with vivid lightning and 30-35 MPH type winds. Prior to that we had 50 MPH winds with the first line around 8 PM last night. This produced a lot of tree and limb type damage on the south side of Lenox, as well as in Lee and Stockbridge. Some on the south side of Lenox are still without power tonight. Fortunately, it wasn't quite so bad here on the north side of town (save for our poor locust tree). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Wow, did not remember that, cool info. CLP down to 111K, had to stay at work until storm was over. No fun driving all the way back so I stayed, posted pics of the gust front. Excellent storm. No power issues at work which is a great thing. UI had 15,000 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ledyard - Police are at the scene of Shewville Road near Whitford Road for a report of a tree down. Shewville Road is closed in both directions as police and firefighters assess the situation. Two roads in Groton City are also closed after tree limbs fell into wires, city police said. Shennecossett Road, near Thomas Road is closed in both directions. Thames Street, near Latham Street, is also closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grinch1989 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Just got power back on an hour ago. On my drive home from one town over I saw two small areas of significant damage. Very isolated, but bad enough to take a few trees and branches down, also snapping a few half way up the tree, no pics sorry. Microburst maybe...i dunno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 What are the chances the stuff currently in NH moves on down with some strong storms? For me pretty good I think.

Microburst maybe...i dunno There was a distinct hook echo on rad for a few scans from Upton in the general area at that time, so I can vouch for you on what you saw. I'm sure the damage is worse than what you witnessed..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
