Watching that for me, hopefully it will electrify.

The leading edge of the anvil is over the Wirral now.

Interesting structure to the cell which sprung-up from Bakewell as it was moving into Dove Holes, no lightning heard around here but it has given some much needed rain.

Definitely a mesocyclone attempting to form there to my eye. Great shot!

London cell looks cool from here

Very interesting structure I will never see anything like that this far south.

Overhead now. Torrential rain and at least 7 big lighting strikes in the last 10 mins.

Can see the Wigan cell, looks very potent on radar.

Heavy convective drops falling now

[weathertoski]

I think our SW London storm is backbuilding or at least a line of instability is rapidly forming behind first storm. Can see it developing from my window!

The cell to the North East of Skelmersdale looks really potent.

The lighting from the setting sun is perfect too.

Yes quite an extensive hail core there. Would love to see the conditions under that bad boy.

Decent-sized hail perhaps? 

[weathertoski]

Absolutely gigantic convectional raindrops
