Storms and Convective discussion - November 2023 onwards
TropicThunder replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Some impressive vivid lightning and loud thunder earlier while I was out working, and the rain was biblical. Lots of flooding on the roads! Not a bad show for March. -
This low on Wednesday is giving me a horrible feeling of deja vue from a few years ago, when it looked like we were gonna get a nice dumping from a channel low, only for it to stay in the channel and Jersey and Guernsey got pummelled. All we had here was a few flakes blowing about in the wind. Same thing is happening again. And to make it worse the outlook beyond that is awful. I really despise our climate.

Well that was a pretty poor forecast by the MO, just a mass of heavy rain, no thunderstorms or squall lines! -

Yes that's piqued my interest, not getting my hopes up though. -

TropicThunder replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Well I've been caught completely by surprise, didn't even know there was a risk today but just had a very nice little storm, loudest booming thunder I've heard in a very long time! -

Quite, was sat on my balcony watching it flickering away with no thunder and it's then gone bonkers near Romsey! Seeing more flashes to the south again now. -

Looking at the radar I think those in Sussex and Kent could be in for a decent show tonight. Sadly I don't expect to see anything this far west. -

One flash and rumble with the rain steadily getting heavier. Exciting stuff. -

It's very dark here but hardly any rain yet, let alone thunder and lightning. Hoping that changes soon! -

Wow was expecting another nice hot sunny day here, instead have grey skies and non thundery rain albeit still warm and muggy. Spectacular fail on the forecast., -

Yep, just seen a flash here followed by distant rumble. It's not much but I'll take it! -

Just heard thunder for the first time in god knows how many months. -
Was looking forward to one day of summer today, what happened? Cloudy and cool here, it was much warmer and sunnier yesterday. Worst summer ever!

Storms and Convective discussion - June 2023
TropicThunder replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Left my windows open just in case and was woken by long rumbling thunder just before 5am. Had 2 or 3 flashes and rumbles then that was it. Now overcast and feeling a lot cooler than it has the last few weeks. -

Not expecting anything here today anyway but I'd be concerned with that rain coming out of France if I lived further east. Looks like limiting surface heating and turning everything into a wet mess. -
Spring 2023 - Moans, Ramps & Chat
TropicThunder replied to reef's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Was up visiting my parents in Northamptonshire the last couple of days and couldn't believe how cold and cloudy it was, like going to a different country! Came back to the sunny south coast yesterday and it's glorious again, they're still stuck in autumn gloom up there. A little more cloud here this morning but it's already breaking up nicely.
