Was that really Irma
It lasted all of 10 min.
A half hour after you posted this comment...
we got torrential rains, thunder, and lightning in Somerville.
Later, in Chelsea
Heavy lightning in Hull all evening
I didn't know it was Irma but when I saw the repeated lightning from one bank off-shore I noted to my neighbor that there was some serious energy there.
Makes sense now.
And on the South Boston Waterfront
Skylights
Started coming down hard and closed my skylights. Little later felt water splashing and thought maybe I didn't close them tight, and realized water was coming in sideways through an open window. Oops.
66mph Downburst recorded at Logan
The NWS posted a video of radar velocities last night: https://www.facebook.com/NWSBoston/videos/1481838168577216/
The sky certainly looked angry as the storm was approaching, even though it was mostly dark by that point.
