Wow! It will be awhile till we see that kind of stuff up here. Since we had such a wimpy winter, hopefully we'll have a more active spring. 8)
David, I wrote less than enjoyable, not unenjoyable. Also I wrote home, not house. The less than enjoyable aspect of last night's storm was due to concern for my family, not my property. Nothing was written between the lines.
I love a storm chase as much as anyone but these "home chases" sitting on the porch watching it roll overhead causes me enough concern about propertyand such to make them less than enjoyable.
I'm so jealous of you guys right now, all I want is a clap of thunder and I'll be content at the moment. Oh well, it's just right around the corner, only a matter of time, I guess.
Awsome picture David!Wish I could have been down in central Texas yesterday.
Yes David, I realize the confusion, hence the clarification in a follow up post. Naturally the protection of one's property is a concern, especially when one's family happens to be in it at the time.
How you enjoy storm chasing is your business and how I enjoy mine is mine. A mini-lecture from someone who seems more interested in trying to pick a fight than in discussing last night's storms doesn't interest me. If that is your intent, you have failed. If not, then please accept my apologies and let's move this thread back to the subject you intended when you started it.
Have a nice day!![]()
Fair enough. Semantics wars are boring as hell anyway. :roll:No worries, not trying to pick a fight. :wink:
Back to last night's storm, I was very surprised at the intensity and frequency of the lightning. For this time year of it's not unheard of but quite rare in my experience.
Good luck on your homework. I have friends in Tolland, CT and the last two times I spoke with them they said there was lots of snow snow and more snow. They can keep the white stuff as far as I'm concerned. I hope the same system that ran through here last night doesn't turn into a nor'easter for them. Next fall I expect to be in New London for a few days in what I hope is nice weather so I can see some of the local sights.Originally posted by Sam Sagnella
Heck yeah, never have I experienced anything like that in February in Conn., so lightning, heavy rain, and an (un-verified) SVR made it a nice reprive from my PHYS 2514 homework![]()
