Currently just sat north of Gloucester. 21c and lots of sunshine. I am keeping my eyes on those showers over Wiltshire.

Also using the new V7...awesome!

Well, none of the cells within reach have fired yet so I'm not dissapointed yet. I would've had to have left Exmoor anyway by now even if there was some activity...

@Ben Sainsbury, hope you're enjoying that thunderstorm!

I appreciate it mate, but I've not heard nothing and everything looks quite unorganised atm!

As a matter of fact looking quite interesting to my SE! Large Cumulonimbus the other side of this cell too!

Clouds are very similar to May 11th 2005, they gave brilliant displays of lightning overnight. Good luck everyone.

I think tomorrow's going to be the day for me, lots more potential with widespread thunderstorms with quite a few of them being only a 15 - 20 minutes drive from me. :)

Yeah, have you seen the amount of cells on the Met Office map, there will be too much choice on offer! :D

At least we won't have all that crud left over...

Very dark cloud to the West of here, towards Swindon way, sun still out here although have heard a rumble, so assume it is thunder.

Sitting in a pub nr Swindon. Getting colder now but not much seems to be happening. Seems like forecasts for this area were over-egged a little, though I do see a few small cells about on the radars

 

by over egged I mean estofex giving a level 1 - and I normally find them very reliable!
