22nd June 2023 - East Midlands Pulse Storms

Diurnal heating of a warm airmass beneath a cold pool was expected to lead to the risk of a few thunderstorms, especially forming along areas of wind convergence. Pulse type thunderstorms were expected with new cells likely forming on the outflow of decaying cells. Storms were expected to be very slow moving and so there was a risk of surface flooding issues but no other severe weather was anticipated. The risk of storms was quite widespread across England but I had originally planned to stay fairly close to home.

York got a bite of a pretty nice, torrential thunderstorm on the 25th. No visual lightning, nice structure however

I was out chasing on the 25th, and caught that storm just north of York near to Pickering.

What's that dangly bit at 22:10?

It looks like it could be just some scud. I was thinking a wall cloud but there was no rotation and wall clouds are normally at the back of a storm, whereas this was the front.
