  12. several years back I was trying to cross a road with my wife & kids, in La Rochelle France at a busy road junction right outside the city police station when to our amazment a police car with blue lights and siren was trying to get through the traffic the drivers where sticking there cars in his way on purpose stopping him every few feet as he tried to squeeze through any gaps with lots of one finger gestures at the police car our thoughts were youd never do that at home in uk or even think of getting away with it but we saw it happening a couple of other times in large citys in france on the same trip. sorry if it getting a bit off stormchase topick

  14. A Glossary of Volcano and Related Terminology for those interested when reading about Eyjafjallajökull and other volcanos http://vulcan.wr.usgs.gov/Glossary/volcano_terminology.html
  15. like a lot of people I have been looking at the webcams and have seen that the activity has reduced considerably scince saturday it looks to have died away starting yesterday lunch time to almost nothing in the evening when cloud cover has aloud us to see there is alittle bit more activity this morning but nothing like fridays & saturdays so fingers and everything else crosssed plus touching a bit of wood things improve an get back to normal soon so we can get on our tours and see the massive lightning shows and odd f5 with plenty of f3/4s that are waiting for our arrival just adding the increasing seismic activity looks abit of a worry this helicorder is near to the Hekla Volcano the big one nearby that they are worried about
  16. On what evidence do you claim not to be able to smell a slight hint of the icelandic volcano in britain the weather people and several volcanoligists that have been on tv have said we will be able to If the dust is in the air which it is i have seen it slowly becoming more visable on cars i have been watching this morning you will be able too smell it, also some people have claimed a strange metalic taste on there lips this has also been confirmed by a volcanoligist yesterday evening that some people may notice this also. the charts of the cloud is showing it over southern england at present and say that it will be precipitating to groundlevel so i cannot see how you dismiss even expert opinion as well as observant amatuers
  17. I was wondering what you looked like dogs now i know who to look for in DFW on the 8th may hopefully
  18. must add try dawn also as on my way too work at 05.30 sunrise colour looked a bit odd not purple or very orange just a strange silvery colour
  19. I know what volcanos smell like i have visited several here is a pic of me stood in one jumping as a gust of wind blew the hot air from a vent onto my leg the volcano is the Solfatara Volcano RIGHT IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF NAPLES considered more of a danger to naples than Versuvius
  20. just tried the vodafone is main website not loading either times out i suspect overload of hits
  21. slight hint of rotten egg gas smell in air this morning at 06.00 plus my car had what may have been grey dust in the frost looked at cars thet had been stood at work (Oxford) all night they had a light grey covering of very small particules on them.
  22. looks like things are changing just checking out the gfs myself, see http://www.facebook....id=166805519168 i want to see posts like this when we are out chasing so come on big weather
  23. the same guy sells them on ebay even cheaper uses buy it now or bid also see that someone in turkey is doing exactly the same DONT FORGET CUSTOMS FEES when I PURCHASED THE LLC Lightning trigger it was £65 + £16. 70 parcel force admin mind you these cheaper versions will attract less duty
  24. virtual Storm Chase last night, watching on ChaserTV.com one of the live broadcasters in Illinois (i think) was chasing a nice bit of low hanging cloud he came across a car upside down at side of road got out you was able to see a group of people by car he got back in his car and drove on so i asummed they must of been safe, he drove on for another couple of minutes when he came across another car upside down part on road part in ditch another car on roadside see a couple of people looking at car, first responders arrive then a sherifs car the chaser then drove past accident and placed his car on bend before the incident so i presume it was a bit more serious than first. Weather conditions looked to be wet may have been hail. Hope they got out safe.
  25. For anyone interested if you go to my youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/gpsranger you will see several vids all done on different cams from an old super 8 cine film, a nokia n95 mobile phone, an Archos 404 with bullet cam, sony camcorder dv tape, a contourHD 1080p headcam , and a Kodak Zi8 the Kodak film was uploaded in 1080p to youtube but they only published it in 720p will be doing it again soon as i made a mistake with the date on my film edit, you can compare the different medias used. packing my bag ready to go
