We did I'm afraid. Could see it and hear it but couldn't get to it. We came very close though. I turned down a chance to go into Birmingham this evening as well.

Well that was a decent little storm. Only lasted 20 minutes or so but I counted at least 12 lightning bolts, including 5 or 6 that were fork - a couple of which let rip some proper shotgun thunder. The rain was the heaviest since El Brumo back in June 12.

I used to live in Brownhills and of course there are reports of thunder and lightning there now. We got side swiped a couple of days a go as well. Now had 3 rumbles in 5 days. So infuriating.

Been watching this nice little storm pop up over N London this evening, probably helped by the UHI (Urban Heat Island):

Very heavy hail shower just blown through. Set a few car alarms off. No electrification though, but the hail more than made up for it. A nice end to a frustrating day of radar watching! :) :)

I'm expecting the line of showery rain currently approaching Lincoln to have died a death by the time it gets here in an hour or so but the way the last line of showers pepped up over us gives me some hope :)
