| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A series of upper level disturbances rotated around a vertically stacked low pressure system in the Great Lakes. These provided a focus for showers and thunderstorms to develop across southern New England. Southerly winds drew tropical moisture over the area, resulting in very heavy rain in showers and thunderstorms that developed. In addition, strong winds in the upper levels and 30-40 knots of deep layer shear resulted in wind damage with the strongest of these storms. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | Lightning struck a house at the intersection of Mechanic and Hope Streets. It struck a tree which imploded sending pieces of wood onto the deck. The lightning then traveled through the yard, creating a 25 foot trench leading to a house and destroying the wooden stairs on the deck and blowing gutters off the house. A 74 year old woman who lives in the house was taken to the hospital with chest pains. |
