[Costa Del Fal]

Pretty much the same places as Wednesday and before all getting the action as usual. Can't remember the last time a storm developed say Gloucester area and came here.

[big_treacle]

[Gordon Webb]

Hi Gordon, how you coping with the storm threats...?

Hope you're ok, I'm starting to twitch a little.......

Cheers

I'm actually doing relatively well because there doesn't seem to be much at the minute and If i do see any I expect them to move fairly quickly so fine at the moment

[Grazy2266]

It's kicked off big time!!!! Lucky so and so's down in Bournemouth, but hoping some of that stuff east of IOW will move up into home counties ! 

 

You and me both, please god don't let us sit here in a dry slot in the middle like we have the last few times haha

[TropicThunder]

Almost constant flickers to my S/SW now!

[Odd Spot]

Still a few strikes now and again near Yeovil heading more N but I don't think it will make it to Bristol/Gloucester onwards. Best action heading NE from Bournemouth...really looks fantastic.

First flash of lightning and starting to rain! Whoop!

[Mark -W-s-M]

Lightning now visible to my south in weston super mare

[snowwonder]

Distant lightning to my southeast. Do we feel these storms are in line for Luton area. Seem on course.

This is just the start I reckon buddy! Let's enjoy it while it's here!!

[SnowJoke]

Just wondering if the storm approaching Bournemouth is super cellular. It appears to be taking a more eastward shift than the storms to it's west and the lightning frequency is tremendous.

C'mon storms, don't you dare avoid the Midlands!

[Daniel*]

Isn't this exciting

[UKSupercell]

Pretty active cell just off Dover right now too. About 15 strikes per min. 

If nothing comes our way in the home counties then screw driving east into our congested capital, I'll hit the A303 and belt it down Bournemouth way.
