Watch video from Monday’s storm that brought hail to the Southcoast

Strong thunderstorms passed through southeastern Massachusetts on Monday, bringing flash floods and hail to places like Fairhaven and Onset.

The National Weather Service (NWS) placed a dozen Massachusetts counties under a severe thunderstorm watch about 1 p.m. Monday warning of frequent lightning, wind gusts up to 65 mph, and hail as large as ping-pong balls.

The severe thunderstorm watch remains in effect for parts of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont until 7 p.m., per the NWS.

A video by Ray Goodwin shows conditions in Onset where he told Storyful that conditions went from “sunny to hail in 90 seconds.” Goodwin estimated the hail hitting his home to be about “grape-sized.”

A video by Van DeYolks shows conditions in Fairhaven, where a flash flood warning was also in effect on Monday afternoon.
