Storm Reports 20th July 2007

[desperately seeking]

Post your storm reports here.

I'll start - torrential rain and frequent lightning/thunder here in Charing Cross. 12:15.

Pitch black outside. I'm right on the River and can't see the other side. The Eye has vanished into the rain....

Amazing weather.

Had a flash of lightning followed 4 seconds after by a rumble of thunder - torrential rain since about 11:30am, very dark clouds rolling by but for now the rain has eased and the worst is gone. 14.8c, a very strong easterly wind driving the rain hard against the window.

Had a good storm between half 10 and half 11, very loud and lots of lightning. :lol:

Moderator please put my previous post "11-14" into todays thread. Ta.

Further to previous report, 11-40 to about 12-30 went very dark, very heavy rain for duration. Lightning about once a minute, including some flickering (multiple leader) strikes, although no actual strikes seen (heavy rain). Storm area has now moved NW. Reports of manhole covers being lifted on nearby A40 road (thats going to cause a lot of fun!!!!!) Now blue sky and patchy Cumulus at the moment.

We've had three to four rumbles so far from a storm cloud right above us. It's quite weak as far as I can tell, but it could be that it's just getting started?

Realy, thats surprising, from the radar all I can see is bright red echos around Gloucestershire, its been like that all morning. Thought it was the worse effected area.
