Some interesting cloud formations about this evening alto cumulus floccus and alto cumulus castellanus towers bubbling up signalling instability in the mid levels of atmosphere. See pic below. Interesting how precipitation with sporadic Lightning has broken out to my sw. Wasn't expecting to see anything tonight but looking promising.

Lightning maps real time is down. Fails to load any strikes later than 20min mark. use Netweather lightning overlay. -

Hoping to see a storm Friday here. Looks like I'm in a prime location, would love to see clear skies all day building temps and CAPE and the storms break out in the evening and continue into darkness. Really need to try and get some nice lightning shots when it's dark. -

I've heard 3 rumbles of thunder and seen one CG since July last year. Very poor storm wise. -

The lightning rate on the storm SW of Amiens in France is insane 220 strike per min average and climbing. Hail core is equally impressive. -

Cell South of Cambridge has split, the second portion to the south approaching Great Dunmow looked like it had a distinct hook echo and is right moving from the north cluster. Looks like a supercell on radar. Anyone have a visual? -

@Buzzard. Keeps getting lighter and then darker here, looks like the line of storms is back building from what I can see from MK. You may be in for more still. -

Currently stuck under the outflow of a line of active storms to my south, underneath the sheared anvils with moderate rainfall and sporadic elevated lightning and rumbles of thunder. EDIT: HOLY F****N MOLEY, sorry for the language but we just had a huge positive CG from the anvil, the thunder was incredible and the lightning so bright the whole area lit up like a camera flash going off. I think I've poohed my pants a little -

Video of the hail, not very clear for some reason even though it was filmed in HD, will have to see if I can up a better resolution through the pc and not the iPhone. You get the idea and can see them bouncing on the grass, some were the size and looked like oval shaped glacier mints. Small frosty looking core surrounded by clear ice, most were flat shaped too with a few jagged looking ice shards thrown into the mix. -

1-2.5CM hailstones just fell in MK, now have constant thunder rolling across the sky from north to south. Got a video which I'll post later of the large hail. -

Nice line of developing thunderstorms pushing out of Oxfordshire and heading NE towards MK area. Look very active lightning wise on the real time plotter. Almost constant ticks. -

5 Minutes of Monsoon like rainfall with half a dozen rumbles of thunder just passed through Milton Keynes. Rainfall was insane absolute cloud burst. -
I'd say Lincolnshire or somewhere around the wash, perhaps further inland around Peterborough or Cambridgeshire. Round these parts it's been cloudy and humid all morning Temp has risen to 22.7'c and the sun is trying to break through the cloud layer. Feels incredibly potent out there still.

Just checked any you are correct, very distinct anti clockwise rotation. If you look towards the back left side at that arc of rain wrapping around it almost looks like a pressure drop and a low pressure forming in the middle of the system.
