CoastalWx Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Some towns on the s shore took it on the chin. No power at all in Marshfield I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjn Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Well that was a fun little event wasn't it. I'm sure half the damage from this hasn't been reported or won't be until the we get some light. I'm too tired to drive around town right now but I bet I'll find some medium limbs and a lot of small branches scattered around town. I think those storms along a line extending from Prov to Bos got the best show for Eastern NE. Storms will continue for SE MA but looks like lightning has peaked and radar calming down slightly. Roughly 70 wind reports on Tauntons page right now. Probably will end up with around 100 when all said and done I bet. Not bad at all. I saw some good lightning but no strobe show like you guys speak of around Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eire015 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Just drove over the mountain in Stafford down rt 190 towards Somers. Unless my eyes deceived me in the darkness, it looked like something significant occurred as there is a narrow gap of trees down through the woods perpendicular to the road. Possible microburst? State police, utilities, and Fox61 news truck were there filming. Power is out in both parts of Stafford and Somers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 That was better than 95% of summer thunderstorms here Strive lightning. Intense house shaking wind. Heavy rain. I think we might have had some hail based in the sound. Much of our town lost power but not here. I'm interested in seeing tree damage as it gets lighter. 58.5F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butterfish55 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The thunder sounded different than typical summer thunder. Agree...One of the mets on Twitter was saying that the thunder was louder and lasted longer because of the lack of foliage on the tress to dampen it. Not sure about that, but it definitely sounded different than a summer storm. What a night though. Tough to sleep. Could definitely hear tress snapping and falling in he woods behind my house. Never lost poer though (good job Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavwtby Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I guess my 75mph gust last night was not a fluke, that was incredible, wish I could've seen it...

Never lost poer though (good job Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant) Probably more due to inversion to be honest. I thought the opposite. I could see close strikes with thunder not too loud, and strikes maybe a few miles away that sounded like it was in my back yard. That's usually due to ducting from temp inversion.
