Nasty little storm brewing...
Nasty little storm brewing on Narragansett Bay at the moment, lightning, possible 60MPH guts, nickel sized hail...
This wasn't there 20 minutes ago...

Was out in Prov. River in the r/v.
Rode the storm out at Save the Bay and made a break for it after it passed. made it back to GBay just ahead of the back-edge of it.
serious wind, G50-60kt and 4-5ft rollers up the river around fields point.
yuck. Boat took a beating at the dock, but otherwise unscathed.
One of the quahogers got struck and fried his boat/motor. He's fine, but his engine is shot.

Nothing worse than being in a big wide flat, 20 minute wade from safety and seeing a big black cloud with flashes coming quickly in your direction. Thats the problem with this time of year. Storms pop up quick. Be safe.

Unbelievable.

I have seen some great light shows by anchoring off Barrington beach and watching the storms pound Providence. Its like watching lightning at the movies. Instead of just a big flash , you get to see the whole lightning bolt.
While they do develop fast , you can usually see them coming very easily.

That was the forecast.
If severe had been forecasted at 0800 I never would have shoved off for a day of surveying.....
