Funnel cloud & sequence of images
 

Yesterday in Wishaw we had a torrential rainstorm just after 6pm, with a
peak rate in excess of 32mm/hour. I had noticed quite a lot of rotation in
the clouds at the time and my timelapse footage from yesterday showed it up
very well. Had I been looking in another direction I would have spotted a
funnel cloud! Fortunetly a colleague of mine was looking where I should have
been and couldn't wait to share the images she took yesterday when I met her
today.
She has kindly let me put them on my website to share. And they are
certainly worth a look.
They can be found on the lower half of the page after clicking on the
"Tornado (almost)" link at the following url.

If Stuart Brooks is around? Did you manage to catch anything with your
weather cam Stuart?
