  1. Not only was there rotation all along the cloud base, the whole storm from left to right was moving in a circle. I guess it was a Supercell. Cars driving by must have thought I was crazy because I actually got on my knees, looked up and shouted "Drop a ***** tube, you know you want to". Then it did!!!!!! LOL Im mad but love my hobbie!!!!! Some great comments from fellow chasers/storm fanatics. Thanks guys Seasons
  2. There 100% from today Paul. Im no camera wiz......thats what come up on my laptop when I uploaded them Thanks for the comments guys. One of the best days Im likely to ever have. Over n out. Seasons
  3. Left home at 10:30 for the chase. Headed off towards Six Mile Bottom (East Cambridge). Great location for watching storms roll in (with it being very high and flat and countryside all around you). Nothing much was happening at this point although I knew later on this location would be ideal! Anyway, to cut along story short :lol: I heading of towards south Norfolk, then Sandy in Bedforshire, then down the Baldock (Royston). By this time it was getting on for 15:00. Skies were reletively clear.......then BANG. Cumulonimbus clouds shot up to the east and south of my location. It was a real sight watching them rise and tower so quickly! I knew these storms were tracking east, northeast (But developing all the time on the back edge - IMO always the severest part). So I bombed up the A505 (Doing 80mph ) heading east about 10 miles - watching these towers turn into a HUGE thunderstorm. Stopped just off the A505 very near Melbourne (Top of hill) in Cambridgeshire. Here are the pictures. CG lightning was the best I have ever seen along with the cloud rotation. I witness 3 funnel clouds and 1 tornado that touched down in the countryside. It was a great day and I only wish you could have all been there, especially Paul. I hope you all like. 2010 with Paul and the team stormchasing stateside! Seasons

  6. Incredible wasn't it!!! This was no 7 or 8.........this was a 10 I clocked up 150 miles driving around Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Herts between 10:30 and 15:00 Then found my spot........set-up the tripod n snap snap snap galore!!! Seasons Pics in 20
  7. 3 Funnel clouds and 1 Tornado in one afternoon......... A crazy violent storm balloned 15:00 - 16:00 this afternoon from Cambridge eastwards. By 16:15 you could see the whole storm circulating, it was quite incredible!!!! This sounds absolutely stupid, but when the funnel touched ground I got on my hands and knees and prayed LOL. This storm was throwing out CG's like no tomorrow with evil circulating wall clouds. Quite amazing storm, one Im sure I wont see again for a long while. Have loads of pictures. Will post them up shortly - next half hour. Eventually drove head on into it. HERITAGE!!!! Seasons
