Storm & Convective Discussion - SPANISH PLUME - 30/06/15 onwards

[Eye to the sky]

I took these photos around 1.30 today as a brief storm passed North of Derby.It did produce a few distant rumbles of thunder and literally 30 seconds of torrential rain!!.Better than nothing I guess.

[Darren Bown]

Showers are going off in W Mids atm, 2 I can see. Let's see what they do!

Got family in Grassington 9 miles from.skipton..says storm is brilliant. Hail stones size of 5p. Back here in shrewsbury something looking very interesting at the moment

[DAVID SNOW]

You say that about every storm 

 

 

What makes you think it's a supercell?

 

 Follow its path, will it travel NNE or swing more to the right?

[Wilxy]

Check out the lighting on that storm leaving spain the lightning is non stop!

[P-M]

Sky to my south west is very ominous now and theres a fair bit of that mammatus ahead of it here now too - is that a good sign?

[mhielte]

 Follow its path, will it travel NNE or swing more to the right?

I think it'll follow it's current N/NNE track right out to sea like the earlier storm today.

Yes!

Like a homing pigeon returning to newcastle, just look at how any storm homes in on newcastle...

Does it look stormy to your south?? Looks it from here

[Harry]

Just popped on to remark at the awesomeness of that cell north of Ripon. A perfectly formed beast on radar which, if any storm today vaguely resembled a severe, supercellular thunderstorm, that is it. Kicking out impressive lightning and has a huge core.

Pics and vids please

The atmosphere and sky feel likes this

It just needs the plunger to be pressed!

I've got dark base towers to my south and north. Interesting.

[weatherobsuk]

NW Radar has the storm rotating 

[Harsh Climate]

Torro have said the storm is likely a supercell, with a possible tornado.

 

lol love how torro chuck the tornado in just for good measure 

[Lynxus]

If torro had their way, every  shower would have a tornado.

 

But yeah, Its certainly looking like one. Now time tokeep an eye out for a nice hook echo.

[Convective]

Thunder here!

I've got some congestus clouds to my south. Sky has changed completely here in the last 10 mins or so.

[Cloud 10]

Not far away now...

 

 

 

First rumble just heard.

Latest sat 24 image of skipton storm shows what looks like an overshooting top classic sign of an HP supercell ...

Yes one (or two) to watch now, and any others that kick off around that area.

Can see it to my west.

[sn0wman]

Wow, that storm near Darlington looks very severe. Wouldn't be surprised if a tornado forms - looking out carefully for any signs of a hook.

[Hathers]

Rumble of Thunder in Telford.

[Paul R]

Some sferics just picked up over Liverpool.
