[Polar Maritime]

A cloudy showery day so far with a max of 12.3c.

[Costa Del Fal]

Lots of torrential rain, hail, lightning and some thunder here in Falmouth today and last night. I see things are boring as ever at home. :lol:

[Costa Del Fal]

Wrong thread lol! We did get a blustery shower in the wee small hours and one half an hour ago so nah nee nah

Haha  

 

I thought my thundery post would jazz things up in this thread. We have had some of the highest temperatures this week, sunshine, hail and now thunderstorms. Not a bad week! hehe - Will be back in Stourbridge for a few days next weekend though

[Costa Del Fal]

Never heard of it hehe good news as more excitement heads your way..

Please report storm number six later why don't you

Currently wall to wall cloud with a few brighter bits, temps soaring to the mid teens later, a few darkening bases expected in the very far distance later.

Sounds like thrilling weather there. hehe. Warm sunshine now. Topsy turvy!

[conor123]

Nothing much to report today thus far again, little sunshine, breezy, the odd spot of rain at times, no thunder, no hail, no lightening, no convection, nothing :lol:

If were not gonna get any of the excitement the south are having at least give us some sunshine!

[Gord]

Torrential rain here now.

[conor123]

Just watched yet another monstrous beefy downpour slide literally 4-5 miles to the south east of here!!!! no words.

[Polar Maritime]

Heavy showers and skys darkening to my S/W with thunder in the distance.

[Gord]

Rain has died down now but that was a huge downpour. No thunder or lightning in it though.

[Costa Del Fal]

Kicking off in Worcestershire and Staffordshire I see now.

[Gord]

Just heard distant thunder to my east from the shower that's now moving away. So they are strengthening as they push north-east.

[Polar Maritime]

Seems to be Ashbourne way? Typical they developed further NE of here lol.

 

They were, now passing Matlock and Alfreton..

[STORMGUY]

no think here other than a 15 min heavy shower with one rumble of Thunder.

[TonyH]

Thunder tweeted from Cov and Leamington recently

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Stafford directly due south to W Mids getting a few hits and yes some still developing too..

 

Stafford town missed it, but here 3 miles to the SE, pools everywhere, take it has hit here, can see the anvil to the east and SE

[Terminal Moraine]

They were, now passing Matlock and Alfreton..

Yes, quite a lively thunderstorm in the Longcliffe and Pikehall area during mid-afternoon. Plenty of thunder heard here but only a few minutes of fairly heavy rain.

[Staffordshire]

Got some heavy rain from a passing cell in tamworth earlier

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Found out there was a decent thunderstorm here, but not a sausage 3 miles to my NW in town Centre

[weirpig]

[syed2878]

[Turnedoutniceagain]

The next 48hrs is too gloomy to even try to predict !!

[conor123]

Wet & miserable out there today but actually proper rain for once opposed to the usual drizzle, really lashed it down for the past hour or so.

[picog]

Wet and horrid, and looking that way for the best part of the week. Roll on the cold weather — at least it might be drier.
