Hi Dave, Great to see someone in the westcountry on here
, excellent photos too btw -
Blimey, still lots of wood around then!! They closed the beaches around the Worthing area IIRC, only problem is the wood will be all rotten by now
. BTW what is that boat doing on the side of the cliff????? Thank you for the photos -
Very interesting article
Signed up today, have lived on the South Coast for many years.
Remembered small vigorous Channel Lows in the 70's
Live in the Worthing area
No snow plenty of wood
My 1st posting
Hello and Welcome to the forum, nice to have you on board
Interesting article....love the part that says the road from Ilminster to Honiton was completely blocked by three lorries. -0.01% that happening again on the A303!! (although you never know) and drivers were being advised to carry snow chains with them...wtf!!!! haven't seen snow chains before, then again Im only 27 Thanks Mr Data for the article -
That's surprising, the thundery activity must be very localised then. Rain continuing here, thunder and lightning ceased.
"sniff, sniff", nevermind, the rain was so heavy no light could pass through it , Easing off now, but some more on the way looking at that radar
-
Just had a tremendous hail/rain shower, torrential rain falling horizontally and very squally winds - no lightning seen yet though
-
Nice pictures Blackdown, love the colour in the first one. Looks to be a good camera for dusk shots. BTW is Stoopers Hill anywere near Hearne Hill?
-
Alderney, CI ( if it counts?) - 79mph

My 2 from 10/08/2007

I think people are underestimating the winds slightly. Trees are in full leaf and especially in high rainfall they can fall down much easier so we can't rule out the potential damage, Winds i will say may range from 40MPH-60MPH perhaps 70 in more exposed and coastal locations.
Yes I have to agree with you on this one.....plus could there be a chance just behind the rain band of possibly very nasty squall lines with imbedded TS??
-
how come we are not weather warning section, south somerset because it is raining here and has not stopped for 1 1/2 hours, on border i suppose B)
No rain here yet, though the clouds look threatening and looks like I am at the end of the long line of showers from London stretching to Dorset/Somerset
-
I know its the wrong time to post this considering there are severe floods across most of the UK, but I certainly didn't realise there was a tornado across the South Hams district of Devon on the 19th July
Saw these photos on the BBC Devon website, looks quite a powerful one and pretty certain judging my the photos that it did touch the ground around Salcome/Kingsbridge. Any reports of damage around there??

At long last! What took them so long? The rain over Lincolnshire is intensifying all the time.
Also, some very heavy showers just south of Cardiff.
Karyo
Yes, some very heavy showers just coming over me at the moment, torrential downpours but no thunder
-
First major rainfall of the day here. just had a torrential shower which only lasted 3/4 minutes, but it was big.
No thunder heard
-
Looks like a covergance line formed behind the rain stretching from SW Wales right down to the IOW. Another area of cells forming in South Devon
-
On the other hand of what is happening furthur east, its slowly brightning up here and not much rain at all today :huh:
Wondering if convection will occur here this afternoon? Warming up slowly
-
Morning all, Very strange skies here this morning. To my W/SW its much lighter yet to my E/NE its very dark indeed with a blanket of stormy looking cloud.
Just light rain here at the moment - and have got the lounge light on, thats how dark it is!!

just looking at the radar now things are hapening in the channel
Yes things are starting to happen, and by looking at the current radar looks as though the action is a little more west than first thought??
-
Stuck another photo of the storm that produced the FC - It isn't zoomed in so much clearer (although it doesn't show the FC).
Looks an angry beast
Judging by the photos above it looks as though the FC dropped from the right of the cell were the rain seems to stop?
-
I used to live in Cannington. I used to live in Somerset. Any guesses as to how annoyed/envious I am right now?
Sorry Wibs, cant help but smile!!
BTW just sent a report to Torro

Hi folks, well an intresting day weather wise in my neck of the woods and this subject deserved its own thread I thought :lol:
Been out in Brean most of the morning with lovely warm sunshine, then this little beauty showed up across the bay over/near Bridgwater (possible Cannington/Combwich?)
As far as I can make out it looked very much like a FC dropping out of a very stormy sky - it was the only torrential looking shower in the area.
Please bear in mind I caught it on my mobile phone camera - although it has a 3.2 megapixal camera but it only has digital zoom.
What do you folks reckon? obviously it was to far away to observe any rotation but it did drop very suddenly before retreating back up into the cloud within a minute or so.
This was the storm the 'possible' FC dropped from
and these two photos show what i believe to be a FC
I must add that no other scud was visable below the cloud line if you know what I mean.
(As I mentioned earlier the camera was at full digital zoom so quality is very grainy in parts)
, excellent photos too btw
. BTW what is that boat doing on the side of the cliff????? Thank you for the photos

Great photos and reports there Paul/Nick F, thanks for posting :o Even the shallow convection looks stunning over there!
