Tall updraft, nice bowing shape, lightning activity increasing rapidly. Cloud features suggest this is close to severe. Well defined gust front.

Yesterday was pretty insane They were pretty insane, no thunder at all very tropical in nature. A little gusty towards the end of the rain. Picked up 0.70 in the stratus in under 30 minutes.

Hoth Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Jealous. I watched the towers rising across the way earlier. Remains beautiful and cloudless with a spanking breeze and torrid humidity. Wishing we could conjure a storm here, but no such luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hailstoned Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Finally, a good one in Monson, MA where the summer rains have not been all that generous. Active yellow/purple gust front, some vivid cloud to ground, and an intense downpour that continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
