There's absolutely no link anywhere for me to attach any file directly from my phone! I can see the "insert other media" which just lists my attachments, but there is nowhere on my phone which gives me option to delete existing attachments or upload anything.

No chance of storms here but definitely a lot of convection which is refreshing to see

Quite an active little beast that one, and a rapid mover, although as usual it passes just a few miles to the west of me going from south west to north east. :wallbash:

Lol.

I've had enough and decided I'm going to invent a storm generator in my back garden. No more missing storms for me!

I wonder if the cell that powered up over Guildford will hit you? Looks like it is heading marginally too north-west to reach us here. EDIT: It's just started raining here; hardly the biblical variety though:(

It's the anniversary of last year's June 8th. Remember? It was the anniversary of June 8th 2015

Sorry flash, I don't remember June 8th 2015. I don't think I knew about the uk storm forums or uk storm radars back then (I never used to know there was a whole community of uk storm chasers, thinking it was a usa only thing) so would have only known about storms that I actually saw with my own eyes. I may have had a storm that day, but I can't remember anything date specific or where I was on that day (probably at work).

There's a huge cell rapidly building to the E-SE of here. Looks like a proper thunderstorm! Very warm and almost stifling here in the sunshine.

Agreed @stainesbloke some big ol' towers rocketing up now.

Very dark off to my W/NW - cell just started firing over London.

Some towers and darkening skies to my South too @Windblade
