Nice Ice Babe

I just come on to say the same thing. . RIP

I recall looking up at the cloud as it passed to me and remarked that is the sort of sky you see on the storm chasing videos.....little did I know.

Tornado spotted in Gateshead WWW.FACEBOOK.COM It’s not every day you see a tornado in Gateshead… ? https://bbc.in/3nWfgyq

Big flakes in Gateshead and its starting to settle. Amazing considering how wet it is. Looking at the radar we are in sleet, but defo snow.

Or you may already be up the hill and around the corner from me

I am just up the hill from you but in the same style houses. The difference in snow from saltwell park to sheriff hill is amazing.

Saw a lovely strike with the red sunset sky in the back drop. This was the west split that went up just west of Newcastle. Sorry I didn't have my camera out. Had the wine glass in my hand.

Yes, thats me too. . Will be again for today too. Still we have a long day of relentless grey fog to look forward too.

Been really heavy rain most of the day in Gatesheads. Will be a lot of surface water about.

I was in the empty spot in the north east. No thunder, also slept through any lightning in the distance.

Retro lighting alert.....just to get you in the mood....This was taken on my phone from my bedroom window a few years ago, no special effects no filters just a plain love of storms. It was a day when three big storms hit us. for tonight

Thunder in Gateshead now. Woke the dog up. His first thunder storm.

Stacks of snow in Gateshead all evening. Had to shelter in the local with the dog.

Yes i heard the thunder too. I saw that cloud when it was out to sea from Windy Nook, it was really dark.

Just cold rain in Gateshead. Might just be on the turn to wet sleet.

Still coming down heavy in Gateshead. All surfaces covered.

Right you lot..... it has got bot all to do with the models..... what you need to do is ask M&S when they get their sandals in.....thats when the snow hits. Seriously. Very long term watcher and still a novice. I love it when @Steve Murr takes the time to explain the charts. Thank you Sir. I am still learning. What i would love to see in a learner forum is today's models mapped against the history of 1947, 1962, 1987, 2010 at either end of that year.....sorry, sure i have missed some. Would that work????? Or just in general a real time learners forum

Just up the road from you. My cat is so scared, just tried to curl up with the dog!

Very dark skies in Gateshead. Can feel the wind picking up and it's chucking it down.

Despite blue skies and nothing on the radar, heard rumble.....it was the spit fires going overhead for the air show. Lol. What do people think about the huge storm coming up. Could it be a super cell ?

Over on the storms thread, our region is looking good for Friday. Hope so, the one the other night missed me.

Looks lively on the radar and heading this way....

I agree.... if it wasn't June the heating would be on.

Any chance getting rid of the NE by the weekend. What do the knowledgeable people on here reckon?.

Woke up to rain. But left all the outside cushions out. How quickly it can change.
