  1. I must say that this morning was such a strange but amazing experience here in Cornwall. I left the house in Truro near 7.30am and was greeted to the warmest of winds. It really was like being in front of a hairdryer on a low function. It was about 20c and apparently some stations were near 22c in the early hours. Absurd temperatures (but most welcome!) for that time of the day and to be honest, warmer than a vast majority of day time maxes we get in Summer here!!! On my travels I was noticing how it was taking what seemed an age to lighten up. On my walk to work near Bodmin it was quite eerie as the clouds were low, moving fast and they had a greenish hue to them. The wind was starting to gust a fair bit too. It was quite dark throughout and it was so until about 9am when things started to brighten up. A particular memorable highlight this morning was the smell of the air which to me smelt like pine. It appears the smell was largely from the wildfires in Spain and Portugal. With everything else going on it was the most surreal but exciting experience. A truly tropical feeling spell of weather. All to brief as it has now cleared but a day I will remember for quite some time. All eyes on the weekend now which could bring even stronger winds for most in this part of the UK. Take care all.

  3. Pretty much constant flashes of lightning again here. What a delight to watch!
  4. Great stuff here. Seem to have a new cell with lightning to my east in addition to the beasty display to my north east now.
  5. Feeling very much like a continental European storm we often watch on the webcams this. Delightful display this. What a treat.
  6. Still some flashes here in Truro. Quite distant so must be what is further east.
