Title: Gloucester Skies Pm today Post by: JohnC on February 14, 2011, 11:40:25 pm The first photo was taken from inside the car on the way home.I thought I'd get myself out for a run so went with my wife (who was on business there) to Moreton in Marsh.A lot of convection was developing as we drove back home so when we got home I took myself off up the hill at 3.0pm. Ran into a short-lived hail storm too.

I think our whole area looked like this yesterday aft. I was on the 4th floor at work around the time you took these pics and I have to say the cloud scape was pretty impressive. Looking this morning, its, errrr, grey again... ::)

I read reports of thunder being heard across Britain that day along with some impressive cbs :)
