Re: General November Weather
Raining hard, and thunder seems to be more east and north of here now.
12.3°C.
! that was a window-rattling crash scarcely two seconds after the lightning.
Now hail...

Re: General November Weather
No chance of anything this far north, blowing a strong NW, but the storm clouds to the south impressive.

Re: General November Weather
Hopeful in Amberley, sunny for most of the morning and the wind felt a bit easterly but I'm not sure about the latter. There was visible development to the south of here, north of the main line of storms.

Very fresh NE has sprung up to feed what looks to be a significant cell developing to the South and west

Re: General November Weather
We had a small twister next to my work here in waltham, only have to lift debris in a rotation up in the air and travel before the debris dropped again. Very stormy.

Re: General November Weather
Came through past Ara, some staff and students saw it and got brief video. I however was on the other side of the building thinking it was a good gust front.
Edit: a large branch punched completely through a roof at work.

Re: General November Weather
We need a separate topic for this.
Nothing to report from Geraldine, just a lot of puffy Cu around with a NE breeze.
