FRAMINGHAM - As winds and rain swept through Massachusetts, the city of Framingham was particularly hard hit. A storm blasted through the city at about 2:45 p.m. with blinding downpours, frequent lightning and strong winds, taking down dozens of trees and leaving several neighborhoods without power and closing roads. Police said the storm may have been a microburst. It appears that a potential microburst struck Brook Street. Due to the impact, Edgell Road leading north to Sudbury has been closed at Belknap Road, causing significant delays on Central St.
