Likewise, just been woken up here by the squall which even set a car alarm nearby off! It was finished off with (as far as I’m aware) just a solitary flash of lightning and very loud roll of thunder; exciting! Oddly enough nothing showing on Blitzortung.
Just came through here. Woke me up too!

The BBC seem to have missed this freak weather event as part of "the Earth is on fire" series, can't think why.
Winter storm coats Baghdad in snow for only the second time in 100 years
EU.USATODAY.COMA rare winter storm coated Baghdad in snow Tuesday morning for only the second time in the Iraqi capital in the past century.Still, they have given Greta her own show show so we shouldn't be short of expert input on how the Earth will end soon.
It means nothing that somewhere got a freak cold event. In the end the last few years have been the hottest in recorded history with many heat records broken every year across the world. Just because somewhere gets a rare snow event doesn't change the global trend.

Was waiting for that cold front to move through in Hereford before drawing conclusion, but certainly here in Hereford for some reason it wasnt bad at all, wouldnt even give it a yellow warning here.
It looks very weak on this side.

Think metoffice wind speeds been pretty bang on clearly bbc forecast been way overdoing wind speed. Seen worse during normal winter weather fronts here in the south. Winds have dropped of more than anything since this morning.
Yeah the metoffice has been more accurate here

Yesterday was very foggy with thick fog all day that never cleared and started with a slight frost. Today had no frost and started with some fog but that cleared to give way to dull grey skies. At least we had weather that resembled winter these past few days!
-
First frost of 2020 and sunny for once :)
-
Saw a distant flash of lightning earlier
-
It's a decent flood here but nothing like 2013. That was definitely the highest flood.
-
The moon looks weird tonight. Already a frost at least an hour ago
-
It's been a wet last couple of weeks and again this morning but I think I've seen 5 rainbows in just a week including three on one day!
-
Thunder here about every thirty seconds but no rain. The thunder is classic deep rolling thunder

First of two ‘arms’ went through. Peak rain rates over 100 mm/hr but only lasted about 5 mins - they’re scooting along as expected.
Lighting is more ‘veiled’ than during the top-tier 2014 events and thunder much quieter.
Some powerful wind gusts though!
In the end, five bouts of torrential rain, most intense one reaching nearly 150 mm/hr, with the final one being the most noisy thunder-wise due to a lower cloud base (it was a back-built one).
8/10 for me.
Same thoughts I had compared to 2014.
