GlennP replied to A.J's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Well,. Saw the first flash to the northwest of me then the pager went and we got launched to sightings of red flares. As we were going along the beach to the tide edge the bolts were pretty awesome towards the Immingham area. The clouds were unbelievable once heading to the sighting location like nothing I have ever seen. As we reached the area of search some 3 miles away at humberston we.could see cleethorpes disappeared within the monsoon yet we were dry. The lightning was quite incredible as the storm headed out to sea. Can still hear the occasional rumble now as the cloudscape out to sea looks even more spectacular. Still very muggy here. Awesome rainbow as we returned though. As for the red flare report, turns out someone was having a party on the holiday parks and launched them........I won't.use the bad langauge to describe my thoughts. Let me see if I can suss out how to put pics on as I have one of us recovering against the backdrop.Regards. -

Hi all, Cleethorpes getting darker, been raining for a while, had a strike near to Binbrook about 20 mins ago. Darker now to the south west. Gonna jump in the car and head south down the coast road and see what happens, seems to be a bit of a disco towards the wash judging by the live detector. Regards- 942 replies

Convective / Storm Discussion - 1st May 2014 onwards
GlennP replied to Nick F's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
It certainly was!! I drove through it on my way home, as I was heading East on the M180 I could see the sky getting blacker and blacker and it hit just as I was going over the Trent Bridge. Heavy rain, pink lightning bolts and virtually nil visibility on the motorway, came out if it just past Brigg and it was lightning constantly, 4 miles up the road and nothing, nice and sunny all the way back to the coast. Was interesting driving through it to say the least!! -

GlennP replied to Nick F's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Ah, yes, nice, probably never heard it as the rain was making enough noise as it was. Must say though as the storm moved out towards Spurn Point it did seem to intensify somewhat. As it was heading out to sea we had a jet black sky with an awesome rainbow. As I type now I can see the clouds building to the South and North West....... -

Snow Watch: East Mids, Lincs And S & E Yorks Pt 2
GlennP replied to pottyprof's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Morning all. Cleethorpes currently having another sharp snow shower. Bigger flakes this time but it soon clears away in land. I'm right next to the sea and there is a light dusting around the streets. Went down the sea front half hour ago and there is more sand on the road than snow!! Every now and again it goes dark over the Tetney area as another burst heads in. Wind still strong from the East. Don't reckon that we'll see the covering that other parts are getting though. Neh mind eh. Stay safe Rgds.
