ChezWeather is that it for us now then? Or is there more on the way

Was just so glad that it did not hit 43c that it was showing on some of the BBC forecasts i think it could have been a serious health emergency had that occurred.
It hit over 40c on the local weather station just to the east of Sheffield and made really ill.
What i will never forget is the searing gale force blasts of wind that made you feel like you was being blasted with a hairdryer it was horrible.
Tempretures never dropping below 20c at night so no respite ot was horrible.

Local weather station close to me bottomed out at - 8.5c I cannot recall the last time we reached a figure that low

Barring a miracle this will probably go down as my second most disappointing cold spell of all time! Especially with the weeks of hype.
Has to be up there with one of the most overhyped events in many years this time last week people aree talking about ice days and - double digit temps it is currently 3c and all we have had is a tiny bit of dandruff.
Those that hyped it up must be feeling a tad silly given the hype they were making out like we were going to see Beast from the east Mk2.

Would not be surprised if there was some serious flooding reports by the end of the day heavy and persistent rain here pretty much since yesterday evening in Sheffield

About 3cm here, nothing to shout about but still nice to look at. We didn’t see any settling snow until March last winter so it’s a good start.
The precipitation to the south seems very advanced. It’s turning to snow from around Nottingham northwards according to Wunderground
Just gone for a walk on the top of the hill and that's above 200m no hint of any sleet just rain sadly

I went down the south gare at high tide this morning not often you see such huge waves going up the tees river
It was hard to see much from the Heugh to North and South Gare due to the spray and size of the waves not often you see it like that.
Dread to think how bad Arwen was at full power I didn't go out as it was 90-100mph winds on the Headland and it would have been sheer stupidity really.

It's basically, any dips in the roads get flooded.
Our lass drove from Dronfield to Hasland.....took 3 hours via various routes. Eventually ended up after negotiating Sheepbridge and Newbold area and Calow, going via Deepsick Lane (Arkwright to Temple Normanton) then through to Hasland
Madness wasn't it took. My dad just over 4 & half hours Dronfield to Haaland to Heath M1 J31 then Upto Gleadless and down Bochum Parkway back to Dronfield he regretted that journey

Probably best trying to reach the M1, some side roads on higher ground to the East of the town are still passable but the town centre is a complete write off
I know I had to help friends and family I have managed to help them get back.
My friend was worrying as she didn't know where to go.
Luckily I knew the best way to try and that was go on to the Motorway at Heath and come off at 31 and to the back of Drake house retail park upto Gleadless then back down the parkway they made it home thankfully.

Sheepbridge is flooded as well near the factories from what I saw on Facebook too so the roads from South of Chesterfield to Dronfield are pretty much impassable.

Again I'm not usually one to question the Met Office but the situation here is dire and if it doesn't warrant a red warning then I've no idea what will
From what I know some of my friend ms are trapped south of Chesterfield and trying to get back North of Chesterfield and every route is blocked as far as I know.

I can't get home and stuck up North because the roads around my area are all cut off so sad to see so many people flooded and their homes ruined.
Soon as I saw the models I had a very bad feeling that it was 2007 all over again I hope everyone back home is safe.
As for me well I made the most of if by going to Headland at Hartlepool the weather was Brutal to say the least there is some pictures and videos here
In all the years I have been going to the seaside here I have never seen it this bad.
It was too dangerous when Arwen was at it's peak when I was there last and it was 90-100mph winds and destroyed Crimdon caravan park.

A line going up from Liverpool to Central Wales? Anything of note?
Going nuts in Central Wales going by the lightning apps.

I am less optimistic for sure given how developments have gone so far today. Hopefully something can brew up this evening, but I'm not so sure it will.
A disappointing end to the heat, though I do note the nice close(ish) lightning display to the north last night. Can't win 'em all.
I hope so it has started to warm up now the sun come out briefly.
Something has just formed due north of Nottingham but not seen anything forming this far West.
Might be some light shows out to the east after dark at best.

Same old
they put us in the high risk of Storms and they form everywhere else bar here you literally couldn't make it up.
This part of the country is absolutely awful for Storms.

Give it a rest, you have been spoilt with good thunderstorms this year, plenty of direct hits. Sheffield is becoming the storm capital of Yorkshire, already the snow capital.
I don't know where you have got the plenty of direct hits from the vast majority of storms have gone around us as per usual.
The most frustrating thing is you can guarantee for the most part they will go just 10-15 North/North East/East of Sheffield and so it proved to be the case yesterday.

Just replayed the radar loop and no lightning associated with it. I think you saw lightning from a distant storm as they were some very bright flashes but no thunder.
Yep I agree just shows how bright they were.

Hope for us yet then.
I would say so I thought I was seeing things at first definitely was lightning and echoes on the radar confirmed it.
But as we know they usually go everywhere bar here.

Lightning to south over Chesterfield way come from nowhere seen several flashes so far.

mike57 Would not be at all surprising there has been snow over the NYM this morning
It is absolutely baltic here in Sheffield it feels more like December here then April it is absolutely vile.
