kevin1927 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 That was impressive for this area. Had some gusts to 40-50mph for a minute or two there. Don't really have a good view here, so wasn't able to see if there was any rotation though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlantStickers Anonymous Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I just woke up to a tornado warning? Pretty cool, heavy rain right now. Even cooler, street level radar for my neighborhood on NECN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tornadomachine Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Not bad looking. That probably made landfall, that's a really strong, tight rotation. Better than anything I saw yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJonesWX Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 heard some thunder and saw a few flashes in that cell, not much wind though but it was pouring. flash flooding here in Cambridge, still some pretty good ponds in the low spots on the roads. And now the sun is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tornadomachine Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 That was quite a couplet earlier...only lasted one volume scan though.Came together fast too... 0 to tornado in five minutes. One interesting thing, there was a study done in Illinois, I believe, investigating how extreme changes in topography (urban to rural, for example) have a statistically significant higher percentage of tornado touchdowns. I'll see if I can find a link.EDIT: Here is the link: http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/releases/2014/Q2/landscape-transition-zones-may-influence-where-tornadoes-strike.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Pretty sure I just witnessed a cone-shaped funnel cloud looking north from 60 State in downtown Boston. Became obscured fairly quickly and couldn't tell if it made it to the ground, but it certainly compelled my attention for a minute or two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I have a pretty poor pic from my phone from the 16th floor, but frankly it's obscured with reflections and rain drops on the window. Can barely make out the cone in the background. I'll upload it a bit later. Tricky to do in my office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
