| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Severe thunderstorms moved through portions of western, central, and interior eastern Massachusetts ahead of a cold front, which dropped southeast through New England.The storms initially produced wind damage in Monson where large trees, wires, and a telephone pole were brought down. Torrential rainfall with the storms partially washed out a road in Monson as well. As the storms progressed into Worcester County, trees and wires were brought down in Shrewsbury, Northborough, and Webster. Several roads were flooded in Spencer and Warren, including parts of Route 49. In Worcester, cars were submerged by flood waters on Southbridge Street. Lightning from the storms struck a houseboat on a lake in West Brookfield, as well as several homes in Shrewsbury and Worcester. As the storms crossed the I-495 corridor into Norfolk County, thunderstorm winds blew down wires in Medway. Lightning caused damage to homes in Bellingham and Walpole, and struck a tree in Foxborough which landed on the roof of an apartment complex as well as several cars.Another storm which followed the initial line of storms also produced frequent lightning. A barn was damaged by a lightning strike in Williamsburg. |
