    I've been stuck in the house today doing work although been nipping in and out.

    Lots of thunder, torrential rain, and lots of flashes but unfortunately nothing photogenic. Setup a timelapse to try catch a bolt or three but nothing :(

    Still quite enjoyable today though :D

    A lot of dark stuff building north west and south east of Athlone. Hopefully come together right over the house for some booms!

    I had a fantastic day weather wise, and I barely left the house, everything came to me!

    Thunder, lightning, torrential rain in the afternoon.

    And 2 funnels in the same place yesterday evening!

    I have to say I'm quite pleased!

    Torrenial Rain

    Hey Tyler, get some gtechniq g1 on you're windscreen. It's better than rainx and the water just beads off it. It's supposed to last up to 30k km.

    Better visibility in rain, sleet, fog and snow is all about safety. And the safety benefits are not just the obvious ones that self clearing screens bring. Rain and grime free screens also means greatly reduced eye fatigue, which can lead to drowsiness and loss of concentration whilst driving.

    A bit OT,
    Weirdest thing just happened. Perfectly calm sunny day all day and for about a 10 second period the wind picked up in a constant gust knocking over flower pots, chairs and blowing other debris. All the neighbours were out wondering what was going on. Strangest thing. :confused:
    Some kind of heat fueled whirlwind?
    It is a high pressure whirl wind also known as a shig wee. Often indicated sign of good weather.

    I know this is probably the wrong place to put this but this video of a supercell timelapse is absolutely amazing
