Yes i think it's the same cell. We live a few miles to the south but close enough to hear distant rumbles of thunder.

 

 

 

Can hear the rumbles here in Surbiton too. View from the garden.

Tempted to sleep in the car tonight with the aircon on, but worried that i might get a visit from Greta Thunberg in the morning.

It’s OK - she sails now to lessen the carbon footprint of flying. It’d take her days to get to you. You’re safe

On the netW radar its got a couple of lightning X.  But trust me there are 2-4 strikes a minute happening can hear deep loud booms.  Thats a proper storm going on there!

Well then... Back in the 'Good Old Days' (like in June 1974!) we'd  have one hot -- 26C -- Sunday afternoon and a whopper of a thunderstorm, thereafter... Something has clearly changed: umpteen days' 30C+, followed by f'all!:olddoh:

So are these "surface based" storms like the storm warning said?  Cant believe how a storm can go from nothing to full on in 20 minutes, its staggering!

Must admit, with this much heat and the atmosphere obviously full of energy, Im suprised storms have not formed all over the S and E.

If you're on the east coast you might see a few distant flashes from the Dutch storm as it limps into the N Sea and re-ignites somewhere near Scotland.

It's about all we're going to get from this hot spell.

Hi peeps,

Unfortunately the storms over northern France seem to be decaying away. Certainly the chances of them coming towards us now I think have diminished. Alas this is a all too familiar story looks yet again further north of us there is storm activity.

oh well tomorrow is another day and my chase will start again.

good night all

Odd experience just now in Hythe, it felt very stormy and we could make out what almost looked like a wall cloud.... As it approached the gusts really picked up and the temp dropped, but no storm!

Any ideas why this happened, what formed the gust front?
