Storms and Convective discussion- 7th August onwards
<<Ryan>> replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Currently sat in Dungeness, Kent. Plenty of CG's to be seen, although it's still fairly distant. Closer bolts lighting up the clouds In the cells developing on the eastern side. Also some fairly strong, refreshing winds when a weak shelf cloud came over a while back. -

Decided to head down the coast to watch the storms in the channel. Flickers of lightning every 3-5 seconds, with just the occasional distant cg to be seen along with faint, distant thunder. Much better than trying to sleep in this heat amd hopefully just a starter -

Storms and convective discussion - 18th June 2020 onwards
<<Ryan>> replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Just got in from a great chase between Hastings - Dungeness. Started along Hastings seafront watching distant cg's out to sea and headed east as new cells fired on the eastern side. Some wonderfully vivid blue bolts as I drove eastwards before stopping at Dungeness where I heard what I believe was hail roar for the first time! As the cell hit hail 1-1.5cm bounced around me with close cg's and booming thunder. Some awesome skies around this morning, the colours and textures were incredible. -

Several long rumbles of thunder and heavy rain here (Hawkhurst, Kent) -

Lovely little storm here. Small hail, gusty winds and around a dozen claps of thunder so far -

Nice to see some instability, though it seems any storms will now be to my East should any form at all -

Occasional rumbles of thunder over the past 20 minutes along with some gusty winds. Fingers crossed we don't have to wait too long for some big summer storms to come our way! -
Southeast and East Anglia weather discussion
<<Ryan>> replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
Large variations between models with rainfall over the next couple of days. Euro 4 being one the most extreme with some intense downpours showing tomorrow morning across the south east. This leading to some very large rainfall totals. Worth keeping an eye on! -

Storms fading away from my area now. Lasted a good 2 and a half hours, a nice bonus on top of the storms yesterday evening -

Near constant thunder and flashes in all directions. 3rd round of storms -

Moving about between camber and dungeness. Very strong winds right now, must be close to 50mph. -

Another nice cg caught No! I wasn't quite ready after posting the cg and got my thumb in the next shot! -

Frequent thunder and lightning from what's hitting the southeast currently. Some really gusty winds along with it too, I'd guess 30-40mph. Managed to capture this cg -

Distant thunder just heard. And another flash and deep rumble -
Storms and Convective Discussion - 20th April 2019 onwards
<<Ryan>> replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
4 hours of thunder and lightning - pretty frequent at times, pea sized hail, flooded roads and a medium sized tree down across the road. It wasn't a bust everywhere, though a lot less widespread than first expected. Still a few warm months left of the year yet, folks! -

I've enjoyed today's storms just as much as last weeks! Not the constant flashing, but still multiple strikes per minute and the thunder has been far superior. Certainly another memorable event, personally. Some awesome cloudscape as sun rose and now enjoying vivid lilac cg's from the southern cell which is just coming ashore -

Not the best storm for lightning viewing, but a lot of it is being masked by the low cloud, mist and rain. However, this thunder is really making up for it! Finally a flash of lightning which has lit up some structure, and wow! A huge pronounced shelf cloud just out to sea - will likely bring some fairly gusty winds with it -

Currently in Hastings. Lots of low cloud and mist out to sea with the occasional flicker of light. The rumbles of thunder are great, real deep and lasting forever -

<<Ryan>> replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Been out since 10pm last night. Watched lightning from when I left right through to 4am. Came across a small tree down along with several medium sized branches - winds were pretty gusty on the leading edge of the first storm. Also a small landslide, leaving a couple of large rocks in the road. A brief break and the next storm is nearing once more -

Anvil crawlers all over the back of this thing. Some pretty impressive flooding in the Hastings area not long ago. -

Absolutely crazy rain in Appledore, Kent. Roads turned into muddy torrents. Radar suggests 2-3 inches fallen in the past hour! Several flashes and rumbles of thunder to go with it.
