Storms and Convective discussion - 25th July 2021 onwards

[Jamie M]

Rotation from Dublin Airport earlier. Not sure if that'd be regarded as a funnel or not, would need a wider view.

[Chris.R]

Strikes SE of Wigan.

[Methuselah]

Only three storms here today. So, I think I'll write a letter to the United Nations; there ain't no cure for the summertime blues!

Cell developed to my WNW, heard thunder from it

[Freeman]

Monsoon rain passing through Deeping St. James, accompanied with close lightning and gusty winds. The rain went from 0 - 100 in an instant, never seen anything like it.

We are pinchbeck and had nothing

[Turquoise]

even on a day where 90% of the country are seeing storms somehow, SOMEHOW, we STILL avoid them. we must literally be the unluckiest town in the country. We have had 14 storm warnings this summer for my area, not one of them produced a storm.... however there have been loads that miss us 20 miles to the north, 20 miles to the east, 20 miles to the south, 20 miles to the west....but never where we are. 

you literally cannot make it up.

Your time will come again mate. Last year was your year! Cheshire had some amazing multi-cells and even a MCS last June and August.

Hah we must be doing something wrong! Have you been doing the storm dances correctly? Your view point looks much better than my dash up galley hill in the rain .. hey next time you head this way pick up the weather on route ⛈️

lol,i dont know what ways are where here ,summed up sea to my south ,anywhere else must be north ,then village ,little towns ,i might as well be in north somerset ,but with that,the sea is to north ,not south ,its a 'Battle' to work out lol,and its the only view i had really tbh :-}

[East_England_Stormchaser91]

Think earlier storms have consumed all the energy around here for the meantime. Draining winds later on in the evening may spark something again, but for now, looking quiet here.

That’s cool, I remember seeing that funnel cloud over Kirkby-in-Ashfield a few years ago, that’s about the only storm chasing I’ve ever done round here

It would not surprise me if it was a funnel cloud, that part of the woods is known for funnel clouds. I make regular visits to Dublin Airport and have seen wall clouds and rotation at times.
