Currently sat in my bedroom in Crewe watching the most impressive lightning I’ve ever seen in this country, it’s like a firework display. Looking at the map I’ve got plenty of this to come I’m only on the leading edge of it. Not too much thunder and no rain yet just constant flashes of lightning

Seems like its all going to spark off to the North and East of me, Can see it really starting to kick off in the distance in that direction from my garden.

It's clouded over here now, I can see some towers starting to make an attempt but it doesn't look anywhere near as primed to go as last week
-
Blue sky to the south of me now and the rain has stopped, I can already see some convective stuff going up in the distance

If it doesn’t clear by 11:30 then I think it’s game over for anywhere north west of crew/Chester.
Still raining but it's brightening up now, looking at the radar this rain should be gone soon

Heavy rain in Crewe now but looking at the satellite picture the sun should be out before too long, keeping my fingers crossed for something sparking off this afternoon

Yeah is decaying rapidly... shame.. Telford also had a good storm out of it which is good as quite a bit of the last round of storms missed them.
It is a shame. The radar says it should be raining where I am now but there's nothing yet

Not much showing from that line of showers on blitzortung now.

Massive storm once again in Crewe,heavy rain and lots and lots of lightning and thunder. Took a while to get going and had a few false starts this afternoon but the past half hour has been brilliant. 4th day in a row here, more storms this week than in the past few years combined

Rumbles here in Crewe, one cell between us and stoke and another over towards Nantwich looking at the radar. 4th day in a row for me

That shower has fizzled out straight away. Something big building to my northeast,nothing on the radar yet but that won’t last long looking at it

All quiet here now but the sun is making an effort so hopefully something kicks off later

Worth remembering that even though certain areas, including here, are looking very promising for this afternoon, the pulse nature of these storms means that the existing ones could lose their energy as they go along (and in some cases, reignite again later).
Equally, the areas looking like they'll miss them could see very rapid development. Up to mid afternoon yesterday, it was looking like Birmingham was going to miss out. That situation changed very quickly.
Nothing can be guaranteed in these situations.
Same here, looked like everything was missing me until about 16:30 yesterday afternoon when a huge storm popped up in the space of 20 minutes and gave a solid hour of thunder and heavy rain

Sun keeps trying to break through here in Crewe. Hoping for another storm after the monster we had yesterday afternoon
