Hi everyone. I’ve always wanted to go to the coast to watch a storm roll in, so I drove down to Weymouth for yesterday’s show and it did not dissapoint!
Some photos of last night's storms dancing over the Dorset countryside. Lots of cloud to cloud lightning with soft rumbles as you typically get in these elevated set ups.
Well it’s just sods law really. We finally got an easterly in winter but we’re missing that one important ingredient that we seem to get every other day of the year - precipitation!
Roll on storm season!
Interesting! I reckon I saw around 10 bolts yesterday, and judging by the posts on here they were all -CG. This was the only one that came out well on camera. Are +CGs rare in the UK?
My view of the Oxfordshire cell on Tuesday evening from North Dorset. Sadly this storm only lasted for about 20 minutes before collapsing. Not often you get to see such a clear view of an anvil cloud in the UK!
