| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An upper level low developed in the eastern Great Lakes, providing enough lift and energy for showers and thunderstorms to develop across southern New England. With plenty of moisture, shear and instability in the region, some of these storms became severe, producing strong to damaging winds and flash flooding. This began with a round of showers and thunderstorms in the morning, which mainly resulted in flash flooding. This was followed with more shower and thunderstorm activity during the afternoon with damaging winds the main effect. ||One of the severe thunderstorms in the morning interacted with the marine front along the coast, allowing it to spin up into a rather brief tornado. Despite the short path and duration of the tornado, the location in which it touched down, metro Boston, allowed it to do considerable damage before lifting. Several injuries occurred, mainly from flying debris. This was the first tornado to hit Suffolk County since 1950, when modern record keeping began. |
