Damage In Tolland Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 This is one of the more impressive situations we`ve seen in a while regarding the tornado threat. Although we do expect any tornadoes to be short-lived, they will be capable of producing damage. Additionally, flash flood threat cannot be overlooked as main area of showers/storms moves through region today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see any signs of a TDS yet though There was a frame or two where something tried to get going but then it kind of degraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 I really wouldn't expect much in the way of wind today. Actually, if you're happening to experience a sudden bursts of strong winds there's a solid chance there could be a tornado nearby Any wind though is going to be tied into any very deep convective cores or with any brief tornadoes.

Yeah there were some frames which had some pretty low CC's but didn't appear to be quite low enough to classify as TDS. But some of those velocity scans were pretty impressive for around these parts.

Never knew that. I had someone ask me if the tornado risk meant tornadoes like out in the Midwest. What's basic to us is definitely not basic to others.

Torch Tiger Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 NWS implying that NE tors are built diff, and they don't necessarily produce damage. Just how we do severe in these parts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
