Beginning to notice the odd speck of orange (hail) showing up on the weather radar's weather type setting at the center of some of the storms... could the cap be breaking already?

You’re wasting your time if you’re looking for thunder or lightning.

More than welcome to stare at some distant clouds if that’s your thing

Unless he thinks the sea is a puddle?

the only chance anywhere near that region is up near Kings Lynn and around Lincs. But only one person can see that far...

That storm appears to be heading round the other side of the Clwydian Range... Here’s the back edge of it. :oldgood:

good insolation here for awhile. 21.2°C. DP 14.8

Same here garden shade temp at 21° too.  Feeling much warmer than yesterday, cloud growth greater in height too.  Similar pattern to yesterday, storms developing south/south west of Macc, at the moment Shropshire,  we will see if they go west of me and straight on to you again.  I would like one a bit closer today though.  I love the anticipation.

Clouds rapidly shooting up to my NW (Crewe/Nantwich direction) pileus on almost all the towers! My phone cameras too crap to see them as they are too far away T_T

This storm is mental. Came west of Shrewsbury now still south of it and out of the  rain. And it’s Constantly thundering right above us and flashes of lightening to the the north . CHs. Purple. 

 

Crazy. Rain coming so might have to move again.

Yes it is, sat in my garden listening to it @ Swadlincote listening to it, also just heard a very deep rumble from my southeast which must be the one just to the west of Leicester that appears to be on a direct hit for me

Heading to Ellesmere now to watch it come towards there. If we can beat it. It’s bloody amazing. Staying south out of the rain.

IF that thing stops back building eastwards and starts moving forwards properly again It'd end up being a direct hit for me now.

As it's only a 40 min drive, I'm up on Mam Tor (dark peak) with excellent views. Hoping for something later this afternoon but if not it's been a lovely walk
