A wild weather day materialized earlier in the afternoon when the National Weather Service issued a tornado warning for Carroll and Grafton counties based on the severity of a powerful thunderstorm converging on the White Mountains.
The warning was lifted shortly after 4:30 p.m., and in its place, the weather service issued a flood advisory for that area based on the heavy rains.
The severe thunderstorm made its way south by 5:30 p.m., with outages popping up and wind gusts sending debris and branches flying.
