But, here it is, 8:25pm and the strongest gust of wind so far was 20 mph,
according to the Davis Weather Station.

Another storm over-hyped by the National Weather Service?


SW CT (Fairfield/New Haven counties) are getting plastered. Two
tornados, heavy rain and some severe wind damage.

Couldn't prove it by me - it's just raining and winds have stayed in
the 15/20 mph range. They have picked up a tad in the past ten
minutes or so - steadier rather than gusts, but overall - eh.

The latest forecast is that it will be out of CT by 2400/0100 or there
abouts.

I may retract my accusation. Just checked the radar. Storm isn't here yet.

The way it's moving now which is almost directly North, you might not
see much of anything.
