[Supacell]

At long last.....jack all year....now we get one

 

The NSC is getting smaller by the day during this very active October 

[ChezWeather]

Looks like a real nice storm now over Chester area... fingers crossed for some more stuff developing further SE of it... 

[Mokidugway]

Just cleared a blocked drain of leaves nearly 6 inches of standing water, rain cleared, sun trying to come out ...

[ZONE 51]

Here is a join of 2 photos of the Stanwell Thunderstorm on Sunday morning. What would you think if you saw this heading your way!...The image stitch shows exactly how it looked along the horizon. 

Not on home computer are upload pics of Sunday (TSTM) storm at some point

This is how it was straight from the camera!

 

Can I throw in a nice sky pic from another week...

 

(going to look back in the thread now see lots of amazing pics to look at!)

Just had a weakly electrical cell pass to the east, had a good few rumbles of thunder from it which was fun. hoping for more, still loads of sferics around

[cheese]

That storm near Manchester is visible from here, and is almost blocking the sun.

[Supacell]

Some heavy downpours across the West Midlands now to the west of Kidderminster/Stourbridge. They are heading my way, they just need to turn electrical.

[IanR]

second decent storm here within a week!  some close cracks, seems  to be more electrically active as it moved north of here

 

constant thunder now to my north, wow

[timeless]

met office was predicting thunder up till an hour ago, now they are just predicting rain. tho in all honesty lm not a fan of thunder so will be glad if it misses hereford.

 

looks like its mostly north thats getting hit, only one or two strikes were recorded in south wales tho l did see one strike recorded further east from hereford on Blitzortung but its mostly up north now.

Has it got Leeds in its sights.......NO

[Summer of 95]

Missing everything here again, 30 miles north and south all the fun, just boring light rainshowers

[harrythefish]

That storm from Wales will likely run across Cheshire and into Manchester. Nothing near here unfortunately.

 

It just has done!

 

Huge bolt of lightning and a proper downpour within the last 20 mins, but fizzled out alarmingly quickly.

 

Still, that's three thunderstorms in October, putting this month in second place behind July.

[ChezWeather]

That storm just keeps going! 

[IanR]

going dark to my southeast, towers around

 

can we possibly get two storms in one day in wigan lol

 

surely not

[Mokidugway]

Second bout of torrential rain, no sferics as of yet.

[Cloud 10]

Some impressive looking cloud just to my South-west and the wind has dropped completely.

 

 

Satellite loop shows developments nicely.

Typical another T storm goes past us this time to the north. A heavy rain shower approaching here from SW if it survives the shield.
