Re: General November Weather
They were similar to the size of the picture posted in here not so long ago, was only the odd massive one mixed in with the average size of about 2-2.5cmOrion wrote:Nuisance about your windscreen, matt - hope no more harm done.

Re: General November Weather
Definitely a LP structure supercell this evening. Not sure what sparked things to be a severe day today.. I see the CAPE was near 1000 but the jet didn't look very strong. Nice sunset tonight though, mammatus and castalanus everywhere over the plains. I'll try upload one of the photos I took!
