Trip to Iowa tomorrow by the looks of it. Could be a good introduction for them chase virgins. Chance of violent and long track tornados
-
All the best team

Just arrived in Lake District for a week. I see there is a storm chance tonight. What a bonus as was treated to a spectacular show on Friday down in Suffolk!
-
Awful awful storm. Just died as it came near us. Saw a few ic and anvil crawlers and that was about it. Such high hopes as well when we could hear the booming thunder out to sea
-
Might get myself down to Felixstowe tonight or should I stay further inland near bury st edmunds?. Looking for some lightning shots tonight. What are your thoughts

lets get this thread going!

Torro have just released their take on today
TORRO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 2013/001A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH has been issued at 07:50GMT on Tuesday 28th June 2013Valid from/until: 07:50 - 03:00GMT on Tuesday 23rd July/Wednesday 24th July 2013, for the following regions of the United Kingdom & Eire:...Parts of (see map)Much of central and northern EnglandE AngliaMuch of ScotlandTHREATSHail to 3-4cms diameter; wind gusts to 60mph; cloud-ground lightning; isolated tornadoesSYNOPSISMoisture plume characterised by high dewpoints/precipitable water values is across the watch area. Numerous showers and thunderstorms, associated with an upper trough, are ongoing across parts of the area, with frequent lightning, heavy rain, gusty winds, and isolated large hail possible. Through the morning, these should continue to drift generally northwards.Some additional development is likely across northern parts of England and Scotland through today, with a continuing risk of hail/wind - storm organisation into lines is possible, with a low but non-zero risk of storm rotation. An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out with any surface-based storms.Some clearing in the wake of this activity may allow surface heating to develop across portions of the Midlands and into E Anglia later this morning and into this afternoon, allowing CAPEs to reach around 2000 J/Kg. With 0-6km shear of around 30 knots, well-organised multicells with large hail and damaging winds are possible. A tornado cannot be ruled out, especially where any cell-mergers allow favourable low-level vorticity to be ingested. -
Well was pretty pessimistic yesterday, but the last 6 hours have made up for the last 6 years.
Some amazing Cg Lightning pretty much all morning (as is usual with elevated storms)
Some in the last hour a little too close for comfort.
Did not manage any shots meself this time round but know lots of members from around the South East that have been on Storm Chases over the last few years have absolutely nailed it.
Boom boom and boom!

Some very light precip in Bury St Edmunds. Not banking on a storm. We will see tomorrow
-
Its gotta be close Kevin
5 in 5 years is pretty appalling and would not even class those as Storms to be honest
two years ago had a good night time storm. That's the only real good'un for about 5 years. Can't count them flash and fart storms!
-
towering cumulus in Suffolk. What a rapid change that was!
-
Cap holding strong here in Suffolk. Cirrus evident and that's about it
-
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of people on here who complain about 'seeing nothing' and the 'UK being rubbish for storms'.
As always, almost impossible to predict and we just don't have the land mass. If you are that annoyed book yourself on a storm chasing holiday. You will see enough to fill your boots for a lifetime!
-
lets hope the Meto were right with an MCS moving up through the early hours
-
Damn the French....anyway keeping patient and hopeful as always, the cell in France looks like a beauty on radar! Still yet to get my first ever UK lightning shot...could that be all about to change? Gear is ready and car is on standby happy to headout for anything coming up from the south or anywhere I can peel off the M25! Paul wondered when you were going to chip in!
You sound prepared Dave! I'm ready and waiting too!

Would someone please enlighten me on the risk in east Anglia over the next coming days
-
Anyone have any idea if this potential Mcs will affect east Anglia next week?
-
Hi Coast, is there any link that can explain what the symbols mean?Morning storm fans!
The best I can see for the UK is way off in FI, so taken with a large pinch of sea salt:
-
Good luck, go get a nado!
-
This has happened year after year now. Imports taking that cheeky right turn. It will happen one day. Maybe we should organise a road trip to France next year?

Hi guys,
Just to let you guys know who have been delayed in the past I received around £150 compensation for our delayed flight coming back from Arizona in 2012. Always worth a shot guys!
