Re: [All] New England Weather said by Sarah:We had a couple of pretty striking sunny/blue-sky downpours this afternoon, but I didn't notice any thunder, lightning, hail or wind.
You wouldn't think there would so much energy in the atmosphere with this cool weather! I'm telling you for a few minutes it went pitch black, the wind was bending thin trees in almost half, hail the size of dimes and nickels was pounding on the house, and torrential rains overwhelmed my gutters to the point that water was just pouring right over the sides in torrents.
It slowed down after about 5 minutes and then was gone in another 10 or so. It was the most powerful, quick burst of wild weather I've ever seen... and that's not an overstatement. It was just crazy for a few minutes!! |

| reply to gt1racer We lived on a bay as a kid. We had our own ramp, and deep water float. My sisters and I always swam off the float during the summer. The water would reach 70 on many days. If the tide was coming in (thus the water heated by the hot rocks) and a SW wind pushing the water into the cove. |

DK has better photog skills than I do. (Hence, no pix) I have 97° but it reads a bit high. Over 90 @ home. |

 DominokatHiPremium join:2002-08-06 Boothbay, ME kudos:2 | reply to gt1racer On the plus side. I went to work (into a 107 degree kitchen) but was sent back home where it is a comfortable 74 degrees! |

 jabarnutLight Years AwayPremium,MVM join:2005-01-22 Galaxy M31 kudos:2 | reply to gt1racer Amazingly, it's still 85 degrees even up here in central to northern NH at 8:15 PM. (Well, according to how it feels when I walk outside, and checking out some of the weather sites ). I'm all set though...I had my wife spray me with the garden hose. ICE cold! (The hose that is, not my wife).  -- I had a life once.....now I have a Computer and a Modem. |
