I think there is a storm approaching as I have seen a few flashes here, looks like its dying out now though? maybe it will pep back up?
-
Just had a few flashes of lightning but the mist is making it hard to determine the direction, all quiet now though.
-
I can hear the thunder from the storm just north of me, quite a bit of thunder to be honest, just missed me though, bugger. Oh well we had one last night I can't really complain.
-
Watching the radar the wind has shifted from ENE to NW direction, crazy, look at that stuff in the channel also! Eastbourne, Brighton, Hove or Dover could be in the firing line.
-
I normally suffer from anxiety during storms but this is awesome! When I was younger this would have terrified me, now its one of my favourite things.
-
I just had the brightest longest lasting flash of lightning I have ever seen it was followed by long rumbling thunder, seems like its back building a bit. Its quite relaxing to be honest.
-
I just had two bits of lightning followed by very quiet thunder? even though it was relativity close? Anyone else experience this?
Googleing Kerbal Space Programe ! Heavy rain easing now!
ITs a game endorsed by NASA where you build space craft to get to other planets with real physics. its pretty good if you have patience.
-
No lightning here, I was hoping for at least a bang, I was only alerted to the oncoming rain during the BBC independence coverage. When Andrew Neil said they had thunder over Westminster lol, I was playing Kerbal Space Program, trying to get back from minmus when my craft randomly exploded. haha
-
Any chance of more forming? To the east?
-
Pleasant day here with temp upto 20c. Went for short walk to see elderly neighbour on way back saw both Lancasters fly past over Southend.
I went to Eastbourne yesterday to see them, they came past a few times with a hurricane and a spitfire, it was a great day but it rained for quite a bit of it. My favourite was definatley the Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4, it was so powerful sounding and it just rattled in your lungs. Incredible.Feels autumnal out there today, considering its 18 degrees this would have felt warm in spring.
-
Awesome storm totally unexpected as I have been busy, I was worried at first as I could hear what I thought was a tornado but what I think it was was actually the sound of the rain and hail coming.Crazy amount of movement in the almost shelf cloud, some pretty close CGs here for a time, the ones that dazzle you for a while, just like a Flash Grenade.

Looks like I missed out on the fun by a couple of miles!
-
No rain or thunder here, but a gust of wind just blew my curtain and knocked the table lamp on the floor! Getting a bit rough out there but all the thunder is well away to my east! Lucky I got woken up, someone left the patio door wide open with the keys still in the door!
We might be lucky yet as something appears to be developing to our SW.

I can see the lightning from here in the most southern part of Hertfordshire! If only it would come down here!

just had two indirect thunderstorms here, the first had a few bits of thunder I couldnt really see the lightning as it was way too bright, the second was a lot closer and had far more thunder and lightning. Looks like more are forming to the North East! What a nice surprise!
-
Loving this summer, hasn't been particularly sunny though, reminds me of July in Florida, sunny in the morning but starts getting cloudy as the day goes on as convection sets in.I think I have seen more lightning this weekend then the whole of last year to be honest, the only problem is we were hit directly only once, Not that I am complaining.How long are we anticipating this to carry on? Its a bit hot at night but I think that's making it more bare able as I am now getting used to sleeping in a room that reaches 28c every night if not higher.Coincidently 28.4C here at the moment with a dew point of 17c with 50% humidity.

So we got the best night storm in years when none where forecast and then the days they were forecast we got nout haha. You couldn't make it up.

Estofex
If diurnal heating and/or the lift impulse by outflow boundaries suffice to break the capping inversion in these regions, particularly well-organized supercells could spawn a few tornadoes, possibly even including a strong one.

Estofex has a level 2 out for Kent and East Anglia tomorrow!http://www.estofex.org/

Anyone seen the latest Estofex forecast?http://www.estofex.org/

Could we have used all of our 'luck' last night? Or is there going to be a surprise later?
-
Are we talking supercells tonight? The shelf cloud (could have been a roll cloud it was too dark to see whether or not it was attached to the storm) was insane, I have never seen one in the all the time I have been interested in weather, the lightning was intense with one of the bits of lightning beading out. Didn't get a whole lot of rain though probably the best night time lightning storm for a good 10 to 15 years around here, I have only seen one storm that surpass last nights and that was in the Bahamas before Hurricane Irene.

Local weather station near my house is reporting temps of 34.4c with a dew point of 17c with a feels like temperature of 35c, not sure how accurate that is but it sure does feel hot! Ill check in later as its time to get my chicken on at Nando's!
-
Well last night was awesome, I am heading out for Nando's soon, extra hot chicken! There will be a storm later and im not just talking about one outside! ;)Also I dont really think you can blame the Meto, we live in a very unpredictable country, meteorologically speaking.BBC is using the word 'Thunderstorm' in their forecast!! What is going on?I found this and it made me laugh:http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/science-technology/attention-seeking-weather-told-to-grow-up-2014071888720
