Here's a few images I took on May 20th showing the huge exploding updraught towers/congestus over the E side of the Sperrin Mountains, near Maghera during the afternoon. These were extremely tall (compare with the house below for scale) and expanding by the sec. Some inflow scud was visible also. A few formed anvils and produced a long duration shower.
