  1. the Flickering from lightning on this cam in Germany http://www.wetter.com/hd-live-webcams/deutschland/berlin-tempelhof/576a5e38cebfc02f4d8b457c/ update : died of quite a bit in the short time i posted but worth keeping an eye on and other local cams to it
  2. Estefex was actually quite correct you must remember to qualify it within a probability of 'x' amount of miles of a given point, i would have said 50 miles would be correct, you can not predict much closer even the NWS and NSP centre in the US do not normally predict severe weather in less than that distance. the Oxford Supercell was almost within that distance of you. As to what you get with that type of storm even a mile can make a difference as to what you get one side of Bicester had 1" hail the east side just rain. So on our small island draw a 50 mile circle on a map around Oxford that will cover a large area the storm top when near Oxford was so high it was visible from Portsmouth i personally watched it from near Brill in Buckinghamshire and at one time drove under the edge and got caught in a torrential downburst soon got out of it to watch it start to break down to the north east. Remember just because storms of any sort are predicted does not mean you will personally get your own
  3. Nice looking storm South of Winchester on radar with seferics heading north im in Oxford raining here cooling the air I suspect this will kill the storm as it heads this way
  4. just back from Brill Bucks watched storms go by heard plenty of thunder didn't see any cg's all intercloud lightning hidden by at times torrential rain disappointed, looks like more storms forming over Normandy pushing into channel so perhaps more later
  5. several small storm cells triggering all around and overhead Bicester Oxfordshire
  6. LOOK whats forming in Biscay looks like the leading edge will hit south coast earlier than expected
  7. don't know where http://www.blitzortung.org/Webpages/index.php?lang=en&subpage_0=10 server is based but looks like they just had a power outage
  8. Where you videoing from behind glass as you may find it was focusing on rain drops etc. on the glass if you cam has manual focus set it to infinity or it may just be the rain/hail causing haze and making the strikes diffused
  9. whoa ! just woken up after 3 hours sleep after working last night didn't see a flash of lightning all night to this directly overhead (Bicester Oxfordshire) with shotgun thunder. don't think i will get much sleep today
  10. i upload data from my Nextstorm software to this site that then correlates it with several others to produce this webpage plenty of zoom options and can show last 24hr http://www.strikestareu.com/sslt/sslt.html worth a look shows the lightning over South Dorset last night quite well

  12. like the look of this some convection just showing over Salisbury Plain
