Fireman and Storm Enthusiast Captures the Storm
Lieutenant Eric Hulette of the Gardner Fire Department is also the EMS Coordinator and Sully the Comfort Dog’s Caretaker as well as a storm enthusiast and watchful eye, often posting information on the Gardner Fire Department Facebook page about potentially dangerous weather. He warned of “very strong storms heading our way” and that’s exactly what we got on July 16, 2024 with thousands of customers losing power in Greater Gardner MA communities.
About Hulette’s storm photos we show here he posted, “Finally got a few decent pics of a Mesocyclone (space ship) with a little rotation right over Crystal Lake when the first line of storms came through. Storm Radar is amazing and shows you exactly where the good storms are at!”
at 2am on July 17th, there were still 152 power outages in Massachusetts affecting 10,758 customers. At that time, 3774 customers in the Athol area were without power. Current map, CLICK HERE
