Want to take you back to 2 30, 3 00 a. M. This was the back edge of the line of thunderstorms that went on through. You notice on this back edge that one cell that went through metro west had that little hook to it on the back side. There wasnt a lot of lightning with this system, but in a tropical air mass, we have tons of humidity. The cloud base on these thunderstorms tend to be really low. So any time you get rotation, you have a lot of curvature, can briefly get a tornado here. There was a Tornado Warning. Im getting reports of damage. So the National Weather service will go out and see what happens. We had reports of scattered damage from concord to sudbury and marlborough. Close to maynard and sudbury, you see that hook in there. Then as that notch went over concord here, that continued into the bedford area. Right over concord, we had some of these brighter redsho green. So certainly rotation with it and some stronger winds aloft. Well see what comes out of that once the National Weather Service Surveys that area. Worcester picking up over an inch of rain. Boston a muchneeded threequarters of an inch. So i guess the beneficial side of this was the rain. You dont want to see the Severe Weather.

Mid70s in the worcester hills. Should be about 8082 in boston. 84 down through southeastern mass. On 7 on 7 forecast, much of that is done from boston on west as we speak.

But we had the sing chur of rotation from marlborough as well went through about 3 00 until 3 15. Had that little notch there, and also had rotation.
