Forum is now under HIGH LEVEL USERS WEATHER WATCH until this situation calms down. Cumulus clouds are very powerful (and it is only 11 o'clock).

Heavy thunderstorm hit Keila-Joa (25km to W from Tallinn) in 23.08. at 17:15-18:15 local time. Nearest lightning was only 500 metres away while I was orienteering by bicycle in the forest. Rainfall was so heavy that some patches changed to small rivers. After orienteering I saw two broken trees in Türisalu (near Keila-Joa).
There was also a tornado in Paide ( 80km to SE from Tallinn) in that day at 15:00 local time.
