Default Pics and video report: waterspouts and thunderstorms

Hallo, everyone.

At least 25 waterspouts were observed early yesterday morning in
Irakleio, Crete, as the air has been notably unstable over Greece
during the last few days. Pictures from an anonymous photographer can
be viewed he

Thundery downpours in Athens on a daily basis since September 18th.
More than 100 mm of rain already in 4 days for downtown Athens in a
month seems to be a successor of some very wet Septembers in recent
years.
Pictures by Petros Vassiliou can be viewed he

And a nice time lapse video, again by Petros Vassiliou, from the Sep
18th thunderstorm showing the sunset just after Notice that the
thunderstorm was centred more or less downtown, until it finally
reached the NE suburbs, where the camera was:

Finally, an animation from the same date. Could it be ball lightning?

That's all for now. All the best,
