Description:

On June 22nd, 1988, Massachusetts experienced a severe weather outbreak. Hail as large as golf balls, wind gusts as high as 80 miles per hour and numerous reports of wind damage were received from the Berkshires to Boston as severe thunderstorms raced across the state at 50 to 60 miles per hour between 600 pm and 1000 pm. This paper discusses how the ADAP (AFOS Data Analysis Programs) meso-analysis program (Bothwell, 1988) was used to help forecast what areas had the greatest potential for severe weather.
