If anyone is interested in that incredibly lively storm in France, you might like to check out this live webcam in Bethune:http://www.smartvisio.com/streaming/streaming_bethune1.htmlThings are about to get ugly!

105mm rain here since midnight Thursday - mostly this morning caught under the stream of storms moving north

[Darren Bown]

My best chance is if the showers over the Liverpool Bay Area turn thundery.

Sadly we've witnessed the death of your once great storm!!

Lightning strikes certainly seem to av died down now. Nm we usually have a few hot days then a storm. Next week is hot all week so maybe more storms when that comes to an end

[Dami]

quite cloudy here, looks more like dead cells rather than developing ones sadly

Same here, just like dead batteries!!

Wonder if this;

can make it to Bristol before decaying. I'm doubtful but hopeful at the same time. One last rumble would be nice.

[Ellozee]

I'm in east Kent, hoping we get some of that western half of the storm over northern France/the channel.

It was quite noisy with plenty of CC stuff but too far from me to be really good.

An unforgettable day here, perfect summer weather, hot and sunny with a pleasant breeze. My acre + of garden looks fantastic especially after that nice drop of rain this morning, nothing's been trashed or damage, haven't had to worry about looking at the radar or anything because the air here is as stable as a North Sea oil platfom  Been laying paving and working in the veg garden whilst the other poor saps have been stuck indoors because it's been raining 

[Mokidugway]

Gone very dark to my west ,and believe it or not it's ruddy sea mist !!!....

[alijoy60]

Just suddenly got torrential rain but nothing else.

The hail reached some height

I'll have it then! prefer that to sunshine

[Tempest]

Sea mist Mokidugway? Doncaster lightning map was quite interesting for a while as was showing lightning at Isle of Man, however blitzortung wasn't showing this. If anything was there it has died out anyway. Never mind.....

It just about made it to S Northampton before dying - we had lots of thunder then torrential rain with hail. Looks like the cause was the overhang from the French storms getting this far N.

[Speedway Slider]

This is a little baby Thunderstorm and is looking to be adopted by a Town or City in England, can anyone help? If you can then please get in your car and go to Welshpool to collect before it

loses its will to live......

I am suprised, this is the back end structure, still strong - maybe you weren't in the firing line.

 

 

I took the A5 down to Towcester - piccy on previous page somewhere, then the giant raindrops started so swung east to stay ahead - rea;lised that this wasn't working so cut southwards across country through Blisworth and Roade. The hail here was 5p sized, intermingled with torrential rain. Headed up the 519 to the motorway which was like a river, 20 mph max with standing water.

[Craigers]

Impressive storm over Doncaster today! Video of a very close strike and few frame grabs.

[Tempest]

Aw...you were havin' me on, weren't you?

[pip22]

The cell on the welsh border is getting its act together. This one could be our last chance for the North-west.
