In Mansfield now... Been pretty ridiculous the last hour or two, with the thunder, cars on the side of the road due to the flash floods. Pretty nasty.

Yesterdays flash rain washed out and flooded many roads that had a depression it it. It also triggered a bunch of fire alarms and some of the local businesses the employees had to leave the building because they couldn't stand the sirens/alarms. Folks just had to wait for the fire department to come check it out before they could allow people back inside.
Today I saw those DARK clouds rolling in over the edge of Westborough on my way to the chiropractor and knew it was going to be NASTY. I ran into a volunteer at ACONE who was from Hopkington and she told me the large quarter sized hail they got yesterday! The news after dinner showed towns just south of here got nailed again with some micro-bursts and MORE hail.
I've never seen hail bigger than 3/16" diameter tops. I'm bummed out I missed the quarter sized stuff ...... LOL. Blah, if my car got dented up from it, I wouldn't care.

That was insane. I live in Hopkinton and when I saw those clouds I ran.
To the basement. Lots of trees/ poles down on my street.
The hail was so loud I doubt we would have heard a tornado.
This stuff is scary. They tell us now it was a MICRO BURST/ SUPER CELL Ya right, 80 MPH wind slams.
It's all cleaned up now. I wonder what will hit us today?

The Weather Channel is predicting a 60% chance of locusts and a pestilence of toads by the weekend...

Very nasty in Mansfield yesterday, family was caught out in the rain, almost coming down so hard it was bouncing back.
By the time I got home at 1815 it was all over but the flooded streets.

I got 18 holes of golf in Plymouth and not a drop. At the turn in the clubhouse 4pm we were watching the news and it looked nasty. Nothing down in Plymouth though.

We had a little tornado touch down up this way just over a week ago. Some crazy pics on the CT forum of the other site. One of the local tackle shops had the micro cell pop in their parking lot and it blew out all the windows and sucked a kayak out of the store! We have pretty much had 1 or 2 very bad t-storms per day going on about 2 or 3 weeks in the Hartford area.

Are they sure it wasn't just NIB driving by?
