Wind Damage, June 2010
(Amherst MA) |
No, it's not a blizzard like we had in 1997, and it's certainly nothing like the weather reports of tornadoes and baseball sized hail coming out of Texas, Oklahoma and other Midwestern states, but a "special weather statement" has been issued for our region. A strong cold front will be moving through southern New England this afternoon and early evening, bringing along with it wind gusts of 40-50 MPH. In addition to high winds (which are the major concern), we will get a rapid fall in temperatures and may also see scattered showers and thunderstorms. It should be most intense around here between 2-5 pm, just in time for the Red Sox-Yankees baseball-season opener. Before you settle in for the game, make sure to clear all flying objects from your yard! And you might want to have a battery-operated radio on hand, just in case.
