[Meteorology Course]

Thank for the advice guys...

My main reason for wanting to do this course is for myself, not to get a job out of it...

I have looked into the ones at reading uni, and dont think they are sutiable for me..

I dont want it for the letters after my names, just more knowlege and undertsnading of meteorology.

let the fun begin

[Heavy rain/storms Thurs 19/7 - Sat 21/7]

Are you staying up then Russ as it is looking promising for you and looks very likely

to be bang on target again IMO

I like to stay up Kelly.....

you know what i mean

[Heavy rain/storms Thurs 19/7 - Sat 21/7]

I am debating whether to say up or not..

[Heavy rain/storms Thurs 19/7 - Sat 21/7]

very heavy rain now, with one rumbled heard about 2 mins ago

[Heavy rain/storms Thurs 19/7 - Sat 21/7]

Yes if it starts proper, the occasional stuff is very hard to get, I like at least a strike a minute, preferably if it is through rain no more than a couple of miles worth :lol: I am fussy

The stuff just clearing Brittany and appearing Cherbourge/Caen looks better IMO

Though it needs saying, we may only get rain lots of it too :unsure:

Regards,

Russ

ok, keep me posted

[Heavy rain/storms Thurs 19/7 - Sat 21/7]

I have just got back from Culver the Eastern most point on the IoW, I didn't bump into Kelly, there were quite a few cars up there.

I saw several flashes from the E and SE, from what I can tell its the stuff of off Beachy head.

The flashes were through a lot of rain, they looked like round explosions from my viewpoint, they were quite dull orange white. Vague rumbles interspersed with the odd loud bang that was short and sweet which was odd. One more thing there was low level mist rising off of the ground all the way down to sea level as I drove home, it made the road ahead look spooky :o

Russ

hi Russ, i was there, never mind. :o

i did get pretty feaked out on the down off culver as you said looked very spooky,

hi folks, just had a great storm here in brum not much rain but a superb light show, here's a couple of pics

Wow amazing pics there.

I got some good photo, will up load them in a sec..

Russ you going back u there later?

[Possible link between traffic pollution & storm development]

Good point Mick, but how many cars actually have them and does it actually work..

Somewhere there must be records of thunderstrom report around the areas stated..

Maybe there will be a linked to busier days and thunderstorms.. Also times of days e.g Rush hour..

[Possible link between traffic pollution & storm development]

I have some links for condensation nuclei

I will post them when i get a chance:)
