  1. yeah very true. Dont know if there is enough forcing down this neck of the woods, though in saying that just as im typing this i just had a brief downpour for about 2 mins. Ahhh that fresh rain smell. Nothing like it.
  2. From 500hpa to 1000hpa on the south coast, there are definitely some interesting wind vectors. From the look of it there could be enough to encourage updrafts to rotate.
  3. Yeah i know thats why im still sat at home in my PJs with a cuppa haha.
  4. I think that might be all she wrote for the south coast. Though i could be wrong.
  5. Oh thats sucks. I was looking at shooting down to Brighton/worthing area. You recon east Sussex is better bet?
  6. Hey Paul you going out chasing? With all these reports coming in today im considering an intercept down towards Brighton.
  7. Ummm yeah you lot might want to be sitting down for this video. It was shot from inside a bus at the tornado hits. The bus get knocked over. Alot of screaming. Not nice but still incredible. On YouTube.
  8. HOLLY MOTHER OF ZEUS!! That tornado was MAHOOOSIVE! I reckon easily 1/2 - 3/4 mile wide wedge. To be that visible from that far away its had to have been. Poor people. Ive never heard of a tornado of that size in another country other that USA.
  9. Nice one mate. I wouldnt appologise for the first pic either. In fact ida slapped on a 300mm zoom lens and put the camera on burst mode LMAO!!
  10. Man you guys are lucky that tornado stayed away from you. That could have been alot worse. Glad your all ok though. I presume you all needed clean underwear after that? I know i did when i got broadsided by a satelite tornado last yr in Kansas.
  11. Hope you guys are all ok. I know the feeling of being hit by a tornado all to well. NOT a nice experience. Best of luck to you all.
  12. I remember that storm. It was a beast. Clasic supercell structure. I remember taking pictures of it from my house in Guildford Surrey as it went along the coast. Here is a pic i took. One of the best looking storm structures i have seen in the UK. Hope you like the pic. I was beside myself when i saw it.
  13. Im making a trip over to Farnborough tomorrow to take a look at the damage. Any other researchers in that area care to join me? Could use more than one person. Message me with contact details if anyone wants to join me.
  14. Wow i nailed that on the head. Just issued warnings for the SE of England.
  15. I am very interested in this large area of storms moving north. Recon the met office will put out a warning before long maybe.
  16. Had a nice thundey shower here about an hour ago. My broadband went down so sorry for the late report.
  17. Just started raining here in the past 5 mins nr Guildford. One distant flash of lightning, no thunder.
  18. Hey Sugar. I think it could well be. The storm was moving about NNE to NE at about 30-35 mph
  19. Just had an EXTREMELY violent storm here just outside Guildford in the past 15 minutes. Had to shut down computer to protect it. Constant loud thunder, multiple ground strikes and constant visible anvil crawlers. House got struck 7 times in 28 minutes. We live on a hill, very exposed. God bless lightning rods haha. Best storm ive seen all yeah. I estimate about 10-15 flashes per minute. Amazing. Will post video soon.
  20. Man what a great day. Just some light rain here now with distant thunder and odd flashes. Some great storms and a gorgeous pic of a storm to end it.
  21. Man todays weather is nuts. Seen 5 storms so far today and another coming my way. YAY! Fun fun fun. About to get another storm in the next 5 mins.
  22. Very nice looking storm here with awesome motion in it. Nice looking gust front on it too. Torential rain and lgithning now as i type.
  23. Morning all. Well what can i say. Very nice cluster of storms rolling in. Hope i get one here in Guildford. Well just looking out my window to the E and SE i can see very faint sheet lightning, very sparse but getting more frequent. This will be my first storm of the yr after my tornado fest in USA this past three months. Could be interesting.
