Storms and Convective discussion- 15th August onwards
Ryukai replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Still some menacing looking cells moving past. Got this beauty my West. Got one in the distance to my NW (in the Crewe/Chester directional line) that's attempting to make an Anvil, done a bit of a pigs'ear job of it. But it's still trying. (apologies for the blurriness had to zoom in and my crappy phone cams idea of zooming is to make the pixels bigger ) -
Hurricane season 2020
Ryukai replied to Kirkcaldy Weather's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
So Invest 93L has literally just formed and just entered the waters off of the West Coast of Africa. It's already pushing out what appears to be Gravity Waves! and has what appears to be closed circulation... Got a feeling in my gut that this ones gonna turn into a doozy! -

Ryukai replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Thought today was going to be boring, but got some massive towers to my South + South West shooting up and creating/breaking through pileus layers. Not to mention the very ominous looking storm passing to my North atm. To my South. There's literally about 30 seconds between shots, so should give you some idea as to how fast these are going up! I'm getting surrounded by them now -

Ryukai replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
We might be in for some 'fun' next weekend how often do you see possible tropical cyclone formation this far North!, that plus the remains of Omar = batten down the hatches maybe??? Who knows, maybe in 10 years time well be having our own hurricane season with how things are going EDIT: You can see both of them spinning away on this gif that un-named one is even trying to form thunderstorms in it's centre. How cute -

Some vicious looking clouds beginning to form, I know they'll come to nothing other than a 'sharp shower' further down the line, but still pretty neat to look at, got one that kind of looks like a shelf cloud (but without the storm) rolling past. -

There was a weird 'Tap/Crack' noise just as the lightning hit, but before the thunder. -

I see we are back to the normal weather pattern of the south hogging all the storms leaving us up here with dull grey murk and drizzle Enjoy them whilst they last -

Better than the near 12 hours of Dull Grey Murky Drizzle we've had up here all day. ______ Anybody want to swap -

Nope, wasn't that. According to the article it takes place over many MANY hours this was really fast. (Interesting though, all the same. ) -

https://livestormchasing.com/map Dawns approaching can start making out the water now on Brad Arnolds stream, looks very high, ground level looks completely inundated. This guys showing the damage live now EDIT: Just checked what the thing that's sticking up at the odd angle is on Google Earth Pro, and it's The First Baptist Church, the roof is built like that so it's higher at the front. EDIT 2 : Jeff's back live again, driving around now -
Hurricane Laura
Ryukai replied to summer blizzard's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
No ones on the coast yet, it's still pitch black over there and they are still in the hurricanes circulation so it's not like anyone can go check. Also, alot of the tide-gauges aren't sending data, either due to power outage or just being plain broken. One of those that is still working that was in the direct path of the eye is showing 10 ft, and that's plenty enough to submerge a single story building, so still deadly. _________ For anyone in the know. One thing I'm wondering about is that some of the gauges show a sudden drop in water level as the hurricane came ashore, up to 2ft below the expected tide level for that time before rapidly coming in even higher (looks more like a small tsunami with how it behaved). Is this normal?? -

Got up just Intime to see the chasers in the eye at Lake Charles, winds just started to pick up again on the cameras and you can hear the faintly roar beginning to get louder... -
