Looks amazing, quite a core on it with a ton of thunder, when i go outside where its quiet I can actually hear a few very distant rumbles from it!

 

For now here, showers have started to build and come in, currently got very light rain just enough to allow the ground to be wet.

Hearing a couple from the Bay - looking very dark to the north...

Looking like a great area for convection, hoping more energy over the afternoon=bigger storms!

No storms down my way yet,but got a lovely view of this, which I'm guessing is the one over Cardiff right now?

Been sat in the grandparents garden looking at it,doesn't seem to have moved,clouds are bubbling up nicely overhead though,with small appearances of the sun, making it feel really quite warm and muggy...fingers crossed we get one aye mate:)

Just heard thunder. Looks like it came from the cell East of Andover. Doesn't look that dark in that direction.

It's darker than night to my north, yet the lightning is coming from cells to my south.

A storm has brewed just downwind of me here, we can see it as a black wall of cloud, with occasional lightning, but it hasn't passed overhead, just formed where it is and is slowly intensifying. Torrential rain over Altrincham, judging by the radar, but not a drop here.
