South East England, East Anglia & Central Southern England Regional Weather Chat

[Timbo]

Looks like East Anglia could be in for some severe storms later, with a high risk of large hail, very strong downdrafts and possible tornados!!!, lets see what ex Bertha can throw at me here in Lowestoft, think im in a prime spot for later.

[HammerJack]

No rain here. Just a breeze and cloudy skies!

[Typhoon Turner]

rumble of thunder in the distance, squall line incoming into SE london

[anything-but]

Slight breeze and a little drizzle here in Greenhithe at the mo,friend marshaling @ brands hatch today says it`s persisting down there.

[chillyblast]

Grey here but calm rain has passed through (e.beds/w.cambs), is that it?

[Timbo]

Watch the squall line that has now developed , as this moves slowly eastwards expect severe weather to develope, this could turn into a very dangerous situation later, keep safe everyone.

Is that a proper squall line then?

[Biggin]

Tad dark here lights on heavyish rain.

[BLUNT]

Bit over the top? sounds like the Daily Express and the Mail?

[Biggin]

Loud crack of thunder too

[Sidsnake]

Very dark here. Raining and first claps of thunder.

I have heard three distant rumbles in east London. Set to go out soon, so hope I have an excuse to stay in and watch a storm (and hope my mum doesn't scream and scare my toddler...lol)

Got woke up by thunder, quite some angry storms about. Estofex picked up on the storms, I did not expect them to issue a level 2 warning not windy at all here, main feature is the rain.

[Mesoscale]

Looks like I missed out on the fun by a couple of miles!

[HammerJack]

We have thunder now. Gone really dark also.

My thunder just petered out before it really got going! At least it's nice and cool for a change!

[Jax]

Here on the cusp of the EA/Midlands border it has stopped raining and getting brighter now, still calm too.

[Wyre]

Morning folks.

 

We just had a lovely long roll of thunder but the rain that had been going all night seems to have tailed off for the moment.  Ooo another thunder roll!

 

Eta:  I spoke too soon.  The rain is doing a lovely gentle drizzle.  Bet that changes later.

looking like some very wet /thunder storms  over  London  could  cause  flash flooding  very easily

[HammerJack]

T&L and torrential rain now

[Meggy]

Nice bright flash and some rumbles. Feeling quite close still. I have my thunderstorm goosebumps... always a good sign!

[Lauren]

Thunder but can't see any lightning.

Thunder but can't see any lightning.

There was no lightning and no rain when it was thundering here!
