Tornado Watch
Posted by Fred on 6/6/2010, 11:45 am
Currently under a Tornado watch here on Long Island(as is much of the Northeast)

TORNADOES...HAIL TO 1.5 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND
  GUSTS TO 80 MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE
  AREAS.


Going to be an interesting day.90% chance of 2 or more Tornadoes,50 % chance of  1 or more strong tornadoes(EF2 or higher)..

Looks like I should be able to use the toys I got for my truck about a month ago.Windshield mount for my video camera & anemometer that can mounted on roof with magnet..

THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A
  TORNADO WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF
 
         CONNECTICUT
         MASSACHUSETTS
         SOUTHERN MAINE
         SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE
         MUCH OF NEW JERSEY
         EASTERN NEW YORK
         EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA
         RHODE ISLAND
         SOUTHERN VERMONT
         COASTAL WATERS


DISCUSSION...POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR...TORNADOES...ONE OR TWO WHICH
  COULD BE STRONG...TO OCCUR DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...
  ESPECIALLY FROM ERN NY NEWD INTO MA AND SRN NH/VT AS AN UPPER
  IMPULSE...SURFACE LOW AND WARM FRONT SPREAD QUICKLY NEWD ACROSS THE
  REGION. OTHER THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG EWD MOVING
  COLD FRONT AND MOVE EWD ACROSS THE SRN HALF OF THE WATCH THROUGH THE
  AFTERNOON HOURS. STRONG SHEAR AND INSTABILITY WILL SUPPORT
  SUPERCELLS WITH WIND DAMAGE AND A FEW TORNADOES.
