Storm seems to have headed rather quickly N and fizzled after a few
rifleshot thunder and overhead IC lightning. Rather hard to tell
direction as they're embedded in murk and low cloud but general
direction seems from the S. LI= -0.62, CAPE=182, lightning peaked at
around 2/min. No evidence of any rotation. 0955BST.
