East hasn't been best for many, many years sadly!

There was a good lightning show in August last year. Guess there's still time yet

The cell near Warwick has finally got it's act together. That'll be the first one to keep an eye on for us then.

[summer blizzard]

Showers forming east of Sheffield and Nottingham. Main band is between just south of Birmingham to Peterborough.

[RichardC27]

All quiet here now but the sun is making an effort so hopefully something kicks off later

The stuff extending towards Peterborough should get further north as the day progresses so I'd expect something. Best place to be is on the slopes of the Peak District of course so I'd expect Nottingham and Sheffield to have a great day later.

Belper is directly to the SE of the Peak District so hopefully I can get a storm at home. Normally Belper is poor for storms as the Peak District shelters it to the west and the north, but this week is a rare set up these days.

It is!

[Joshy]

I might be in luck, it's just been cirrus clouds all day, no comulus in sight till I looked east, not the best pic because of houses in the way, I'm hoping to attempt to get more lightning pics, if I get anything at all

Damn, these storms are slow moving.

Ive had one rumbling away in my back yard now for about 2 hours! (not overhead though  sadface. )

Gave us a good show for a while in Cheltenham. Still rumbling on now to the north.

Impressive amount of rain!

Yes it looks way more impressive on radar than it does in the flesh.

[alexisj9]

Rain has stopped here for now, but still visible to my east. Looking at radar, France has had some more build this side, so some more rain likely here soon most likely. Not sure if they'll be any distant rumbles with it this time, seem more reluctant to electrify even over there now.

Naff all in Southend either.

[Mapantz]

I've got a few strikes logged on my website from that gubbins North of me. Other than that, no thunder heard throughout this whole ordeal.

[ChezWeather]

Cells now firing up SE of here, I'm trapped at work till 5! 

[Jeffers146]

Are these storms in around Peterborough gonna push up into Lincs or not. Feels very muggy again here today
