  1. Aldershot v Cheltenham just been abandoned due to thunder and lightning
  2. With a stiff breeze? Hmm Going black here again but seemingly thats all for us on the radar at the moment
  3. Number 3 starting now rumbling away I feel lucky even though they do only last about 10 mins!
  4. It ain't that heavy really. most of the rainfall is falling as virga. This is our first big shower of the day.
  5. Little cell rumbling away over my head, see blue sky all around it, no rain falling from it either lol.
  6. Cell's all over the place at the moment though mostly sharp showers but its very early yet. Clouds to black because the bases are in shadow. the higher the cloud is the less sun gets through to the base of the cloud basically. Thats why Cb's are usually very black - they reach 1000s of feet into the atmosphere.
  7. Lol heavy shower from a tiny Cu cloud here, blue sky all around! Never seen anything like this before!
  8. Convection kicking off around here and the sun it out to boot. Got a good feeling about today
  9. No idea but it certianly lasted nearly all day! I wish we had them like that inland!
  10. Please tell me that ain't the same storm in the north sea chugging along from yesterday?! Blimey..
  11. I noticed that too! Seems to have been rumbling away to itself out there most the day!
  12. Happy Birthday Aj Lets hope we get something today as a gift
  13. Thanks knocker. The NHM has got back to me and suggests it looks like Jasper or glass cullet chunk - I really don't think its glass cullet since I have seen that before. Either way the guy said both are not usually found in Shropshire so would have transported here by man or nature. He said there isn't many minerals with such a deep red colour. Man I love not knowing for sure! Adds to the intreague of the item! I still stand by Jasper or Carnelian!
  14. Which site do you use mate? I'm intreagued as I have a genuine interest in minerals and such
  15. Yup Carnelian/Sard I'm going to stick it on my shelf I think with my other odd stuff I have found over the years! Alot being fossils from Wenlock Edge and Charmouth
  16. Lmao might take a while to peel. I imagine the chips would be abit hard to the old nashers!
  17. Could be I suppose, I know there used to be alot of iron works in the area around Colebrookdale and such.
  18. I have emailed NHM too see what they think. I ain't too sure about Hematite really, there is no crystal formation or streaks?
  19. Just tried, no lucky just slips off it. No mark made!
  20. Nope its hard with an almost obsidian shine too it. A penny won't scratch it either - it actually scratches the penny. I think its too smooth to be Quartz too - No crystal formation under magnification.
