Report form my other half in Reading suggests storm breaking out in Reading, Berkshire. Thunder with lightning reported.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Can confirm that Matt. 11:45 Storm tracked NW from Tilehurst/Caversham direction I would think. Quiet now.

(Matt ...and you said nothing ever happens in Reading! :) )

Some more thunder heard, after a sunny break of about 2hrs. Looks like another storm is heading this way.

The one this morning was spectacular, on the way to work was scary on the motorway, could barely see in front of you, lightning going of all around me ;):)

Mr Sherman, I do not envy your job :)

Storm 7 moved towards Devizes over Salisbury Plain by 11.45.

Then just before midday storm 8 developed overhead with 2 booming thundercracks :) and large raindrops from a small weird shaped cb which could be seen beneath a brighter area of sky ;) . Storm 8 is now rumbling constantly over the hills and has been for 1/2 an hour.

Storm 9 now booming about 5 miles away SW of me :)

Incredible!!!

Just had the most amazing T storm. The cloud was 'black' and looked as if it was 'bubbling'. The lightning came thick and fast with torrential rain. Very scarey - thought it could have turned really nasty - the children in the local primary school are screaming at every flaDoh a dumb swear filter got the better of me!!!!! Storm is now moving north Eastwards I think!

Report on Storm 9 !!!!

This approached from the SW with high gusty NW winds and a gust front with a few CGs seen below it about 2 miles away ;) . Heard another loud bomb like crack

As the gust front cleared the rain pelted down and the wind died.

Regular thunder and some visible lightning (lots of low scud though) from 13.00 - 13.45.

As it began to clear mammatus was visible and the wind gusted strongly from the SE.

Clearing ENE now and bright sunshine for the 1st time today :)

Overall rainfall total today of 38mm!!!!

We had a small storm pass over at around 11:45am it only lasted 20 mins, there was very heavy rain, but only 7-8 flashes of lightning and some thunder. Nothing special really.
