Dave, there is an equivalent to SPC outlooks for Europe. It is called Estofex.

Here is the link. As of a couple of days ago, they were predicting sever storms and tornadoes. Now, the are talking a tornado outbreak for today!!

A storm report from the site you just provided above. Is there any radar out of those areas that anyone would know off hand?

How wonderful!!

I bet your heart rate went up when you saw it starting to form, right over one of your local lightning photography spots.

That is just fantastic!

It is such a pretty tornado too. High on the beauty scale.
