Yes I'd say we're right under it here - it's pelting down.

Absolutely sheeting it down here! Wind and rain remarkable the kind you get in a thunderstorm. Not heard any thunder though...

[Dancerwithwings]

Cometh the bright echos that are right over Barbmac......Could do with a clap or two  

[mother nature rocks]

Heavy rain and small hail here. Proper sheeting down.

[Sweatyman]

Absolutely  awful in bournville can't believe it!

[Dancerwithwings]

Blimey! that band isn't hanging around, Same here.....Good just of words "Proper sheeting down"

And it's gone! That was short and sweet.

[weather09]

Yep, stormy winds here just ahead of the cold front.  Clearly convective activity exacerbating the winds, confirmed by hail/lightning reports. 

Had mentioned the possibility in the Atlantic Storms thread.

Absolutely hammering down here in Coventry, can't see a thing outside!

Here too in Bedworth, it's like a hurricane! Stuff is going bang down the street, wouldn't surprise me to be chimney pots!

GFS still going for the undercut, trouble is snow chances off on this run for Friday, looks cold with E winds

[sawan]

850s look good for snow?

[PolarWarsaw]

Pouring down here..something theraputic about listening to rain in bed with the window open.

Alas, when we get cold it's dry, no precipitation

yes, definitely, but a little further north with the track needed really for me

[I remember Atlantic 252]

does track too far south, but FI and hope to see this forum buzzing soon

[Dancerwithwings]

I'll be the first one buzzing....Let's see how things pan out, been here a few times of late.

Looking good though for

[weirpig]

Could do with the low sliding further north as some have said. However time for adjustments  this is possibly looking the most promising of the season so far.  the plus point is that the uppers do like they are upgrading from each run      fingers crossed
