Can you get hailstone in the summer from storms?
Yes.
-
That's a brilliant picture!!!
Thanks, its a crop of a slightly larger picture from my phone. Its been an interesting afternoon, as everything seems to have missed me by a matter of miles.
-
Another anvil heading towards the Trent Valley having just missed Doncaster.
-
Huge anvil overhead at the moment. Anyone SEish of Sheffield should be able to see it in a clear slot.
I'm on the Doncaster side, and I can see it, but I can't get a picture of it, as the top is hidden behind all the low stuff nearer me. It is a bit massive. Got anvils on 3 sides now, but the ones to the east are a bit further off.

Just a few cloudy pics taken on my phone about a quarter of an hour ago...
Both large clouds are approx 40 miles away, somewhere near the east coast...
Been really impressive in terms of rainfall today though..

Looks like a storm is about to hit, shades of red and white on the meto radar.
Better get the washing in.
Just hit Doncaster. Tipping it down with rain, but thats about it.
-
A line of showers around my area have intensified bigtime in the last few minutes
Yet about 16 miles to the west, there is nothing but tepid blandness [a statement which could quite accurately describe parts of Doncaster pretty well].
-
Very dark here and im sure i heard thunder,but the rain shield is working very well
chucking it down at long last
I'm about 15 miles to the west of you, its clouded over, and theres a particularly mucky looking cloud over Doncaster.
-
Just issued a poor weather warning on local news for North Norfolk and South Lincolnshire. Reckon heavy rain, but looking at whats been popping up today, there may be a shout of something interesting.
-
Incredible cloud formations around here and it seems almost certain something will spark up...but there again, this is Hereford....
I think we must be near the centre of the low?
I'd say its a little bit further north of you, but not that far.
-
I haven't given up hope yet....
It appears to be South Yorkshire bound, although I can't be sure whether its going to hook east of Doncaster and head up the Trent Valley, like a few storms have done in the past.

:lol: Its worse here, we're about three feet above sea level at home, so get no snow at all when it drops, although, I do get to see the big storms screaming off the Peak District in the distance every now and then, and we had a lovely one up the Trent Valley last year as well, about ten miles east of me.OMG- please, dont remind me- I know right? I INVENTED the ACME storm sheild, this city is definately forsaken, the fact we got a storm on June 6th, blew me away! Even snow we get jipped on!!! The winter just gone saw Nottingham get a TOTAL of just over 3inch of snow for the whole winter, I wanted to get a gun and blow my own head off. Got the house up for sale to move to the peak district, I cant handle living in a weatherless city!!
You're going to hate this, but that bright pink splodge thats currently over Mansfield appears to be heading for my neck of the woods..Sun is now currently out Check out my weatherless donought I am sitting in- with new graphic colours!!
-
You and me both!!! I just had a line of storms 2 hours ago that had me in a direct hit, only for me to watch the line VANISH and develop on its northern and southern edge to go AROUND me They are just sitting there to my north now. Its gone so cold here too...
It seems to happen a lot in Nottingham though, I've lost count of the amount of times I've sat and watched the clouds building up the Trent Valley from the SW and they've conspired to miss me in Carlton by a matter of miles.
-
:lol: hey cool!!! I didnt know that button existed! The cell to my north is intensifying but just sitting there. Lots of rumbles, but they are so low, and with the traffic I cant hear them well, plus the brickies over the road are gabbin louder than the thunder.
Im worries its gonna pass me by!!! :blush:
Latest radar or storm going around the Crimson Sheild (smoothed)
Looks like Mansfield or Sutton is getting a drenching at the moment..
-
Seems to be a big cloud front swinging round on a point somewhere over central Lincolnshire. Got a friend in Lincoln whos reporting severe rain at the moment, we're just getting constant drizzle at the moment.
-
Hi there,add your location to your profile .
Just have done. The majority of the cloud has passed to the east of me now.
-
Just gone though here mate wind got gusty for a time as it now heads for North Doncaster and Craigers.
That would be the dark cloud that is heading northwards from Doncaster towards Hatfield and Thorne at the moment then.
Its got dark here in the last 25 minutes or so, even though about 3 or 4 miles to the west its clear as a bell.
Check out my weatherless donought I am sitting in-
