Thanks for all the posts people , It's been enlightening ! I've finished my TORRO report , and have concluded 'funnel' cloud , if not a 'wow' bit of scud. Although I'll leave the final verdict to one more knowlegeable than I ! If anyone would like to see the report I'll gladly send it. Drop me a line at simon@zooimaging.com. It's in .pps format so you'll need a version of Powerpoint. Nice 1 all , Si. P.S. I hope you don't mind , I've included some of your comments as a miscellany at the end of said report - no names mentioned ! P.P.S Just scored #12 in the tornado / dontnodo quiz ... joint 3rd I believe !! Better lucky than good as they say. Great idea Paul.

Nice 1 Rusty - I'm humbled ! Zoo.

NL , Nice shots , thanks for posting. What time were they taken out of interest ? Interesting to see this was alive and kicking so far South , assuming it's the same system. Si.

Snowjoke ! You're not suggesting I'm fibbing are you !! I can assure you it was taken where I said - you'll see a few pitures of the same view on my web site - it's from the bottom of my garden. I agree pretty much with your appraisal , I've just finished my report and have come to the conclusion that it's probably a funnel cloud that didn't touch down. There's focal length compression distortion in the photo though , and I believe whatever it was passed some way behind the small wood on the horizon ... But even in this sparcely populated area , anything of that apparent size on the ground would have left something someone would be talking about. Nice 1 , Si.

Hey dudes , Just joined so you won't have heard of me b4 ! Please see attached photo of possible tornado , taken on Friday 24th July @ 18:16 from LAT 55 deg 34' 11.0" N : LON 2 deg 27, 20.5" W - looking East. I'm finalising a report for TORRO , and am seeking further opinion on this. Tornado or Scud Cloud ? More photos of the storm cell can be viewed at http://www.zooimaging.com (ul find them easy enuf :-) Any opinions gratefully received. Cheers , Zooropa.AT 55deg 34' 11.0" N , LON 2deg 27' 20.5" W.
