Snowonder

How do you ignore please?

Going dark just north of Bedford, up the A6

In Biddenham and it built right overhead and then as it moved east it got worse but the rain was biblical

31mm rain in Bedford in 45 mins

Is the cap about to broken near here. Big tower up near Cambridge way. Can see from Bedford. Couldn’t get pic as driving.

A quick question. Here in Bedford we seem to have storms start then the lightning and thunder stops fairly quickly. This had happened in the past few years? Any reason why? Bedford is obviously by the Ouse etc does this have any bearing whatsoever? Just curious

Can anyone in Bedford area confirm thunder snow. I’m sure I saw lightning and a rumble!

Big storm in Bedford right now! Booming thunder

I was always told that living near the chilterns if the storm didn’t get in it would travel around and hence miss places in Bedfordshire. Don’t know if that’s possible?

Backbuilding now in Bedford. First thunder just now.

Everything is dying out before reaching here. Thought we may be in for a few cm tonight but not sure now! Any idea if the showers will pep up overnight?! Hoping but I think not. Frustrating

I'm hoping that this will sweep down to Bedford if it stays strong. Fingers crossed.

Will have a look, temp dropping here and dew point now -3c so that will be enough. Certainly developing situation. Still we were quite lucky the other week. Fingers crossed.

Keeping an eye on a possible line of showers around the Kings Lynn area that are heading inland. Hoping they will last. What are your thoughts?

Am I right in thinking if the precipitation is further north than was first thought is that good news for more west of the EA region? have a very light covering on grass/cars etc here but clearing now. Def a nowcast and radar watching situation.
