  1. I think I misread Nick's post, I'm flying on Friday. My Covid test is 8am Thursday. Cheers Nick - your Twitter post saved me £50! I had booked myself a PCR test thinking that's what was needed for entry to the USA. I've now had it amended to the rapid antigen test. Nick, I owe you a beer! See you all Friday on the other side of the pond!
  2. Thanks Jodie! I've decided to go old school and get cash - got my dollars today. Looking forward to meeting up soon.
  3. Thanks for this Mike - ties in with my expectations.
  4. How much would you suggest I'm likely to spend on food/drink? Just trying to figure out how many dollars to get.
  5. That's very helpful - thanks Mike.
  6. Hi Nick, Yeah, I'm also on this flight. First time out there for me - what do people do re currency? I rarely use cash any more but thinking perhaps I ought to get some dollars out? Cheers, Luke
  7. Agreed. I was counting a flash every 3 seconds at one point, and every 5 seconds for an extended period of time. But those bad boys at the end trumped everything.
  8. Maybe a positive CG from a decaying cell. It's suddenly gone very quiet.
  9. CGs coming to play now - wowsers! Gunshot thunder just set off a car alarm.
  10. To the best of my knowledge, everything I've seen this evening has been intra-cloud.
  11. I went with Campbell Irvine. If memory serves, Battleface don't cover cancellation due to a positive Covid test prior to flying.
  12. Lots of flashes visible from the Cherbourg cell now that the IOW system has largely passed through.
  13. Woooowzers - just seen one of the best CGs I've ever seen!
  14. Flashes from IOW cell seem to have suddenly dropped off. Nice little show from afar whilst it lasted.
  15. Thanks Paul/Nick - think I'll bite the bullet and purchase flights & insurance in the next few days.
  16. I got storm-chasing insurance quotes today from Campbell Irvine and Battleface. Unfortunately neither cover cancellations due to a change in government guidance on Covid, although Campbell Irvine will pay if you have to cancel due to a positive Covid test. Is anybody thinking of waiting much longer before booking their flight, in case there's a drop in price? (I'm Tour 4).
  17. I'm on Tour 4 but haven't booked flights or (attempted to) contact DogTag yet.
  18. The Tornado and Storm Research Organisation (TORRO) WWW.TORRO.ORG.UK TORRO is a privately-supported research body specialising in severe convective weather in Britain and Ireland Interesting
  19. Glad I brought my hoody, it's quite a chilly breeze on the clifftop!
