I'm not convinced the Bournemouth storm is turning right, the core is moving due north, but the fact the anvil is being sheared off to the north east gives the illusion of north eastwards movement....It is an absolute beaut though...can see the lightning from here (50 miles north/north east)

[richep]

Is it worth me staying up here in the west Country or has our chance been and gone.

[Chris K]

Absolute beaut of a storm - I need a teleporter

[poseidon]

Insane CGs raining down over Croydon now, wow, camera rolling

All IC here currently, Nick

Enough of it though

For whoever criticised the term explosive - Bournemouth is a mosh pit at the moment

[UKSupercell]

I never ever ever ever thought I would say this ....... I wish I was in Bournemouth now!

[Grazy2266]

Just seen my first few flashes just to the southeast of Aylesbury

[Bolt from the Blue]

Debating whether to go and chase that Bournemouth storm, thought it was coming here but now veering off to the NE.

When the cold front moves in a lot of people in the south will see some nice flashes and rumbles.

There is always the chance of the weymouth storm to reintensify but it doesn't seem likely right now so, it's up to you?

[Panayiotis]

London getting ingulfed by thunderstorms now! Can see lightning to my south from Cardiff but not sure from what haha

[Buckster]

If that bournmouth survives its trip up north, It will be a direct hit for me!

Flashes to be seen every 10 seconds with occasional grumbles.
