There is the cat and fiddle web cam, if you tap the image it clicks to an image of flash, tap it again you then get an image out over the cheshire plain to the Dee estuary, I think it refreshes every minute, for some reason my tablet wont download the cam.  I wondered if any of the Wrexham cell can be picked up on it.

Hi all, got this photo of lightning with a rainbow, from yesterday's storm. Thought I'd share 

 

lightning-rainbow.jpg

I remember seeing that one, happened a few mins before the rain blasted through!  

 

(Yes, I have a weird memory )

Yeah, it literally came out of nowhere! It's not very often you see lightning and a rainbow, especially the lightning going through the rainbow, haha.

Was a great little storm, moved past quite fast though.

Found a spot to view the storms that miss me

Hate to mention Xander but you're looking over the sea in the complete wrong direction for Southend.

Southend is on the other side of the pier not looking out to the wind farms over Neptunes Arm.

You can faintly see it in the distance there.

Better up-close below.

Afternoon all. Some wicked convection today, but most of the activity out to the west. Been busy today, so couldn’t get out chasing. 

Tomorrow looks to be a more active day for eastern parts, more so than today, so I could maybe hit the road, if I have to!

Very warm and humid in the sun, but we are right next to the CZ and back building of the line of storms through the West Midlands and East Wales, it is developing right over Walsall currently and seems to be back building closer to us in the Black Country as can be seen on the radar, here as some towers i caught as its developing, although they were much larger than they look in the images.

For that matter the whole of this week looks active, with lots of opportunities looking likely for lots of places so I can't wait!

Well I’m at the end of my little chase today, went across to Whitchurch and down A49 though another small storm and back to where I started where it’s 18 degree still and still feels oppressive. 

Now looking back west To the storms building on the M54 corridor. Photo take three mins apart to show how they are building. Photos below. 

Great fun in Shropshire today when the big beast came through.

You are in a fantastic position. Watch the moisture pool of where these storms have fired, always the same spot either SW, West or North West of Wolverhampton. That will continue to happen as the southerlies but into the easterlies and lift north. It will eventually join up and make a line with the stuff off to your east over Leicester way.

Would love to be in Stoke right now not a quote often heard I would imagine lol

Probably because of how rare they are

Forty five pages to catch up on since my last visit in here...looking forward to seeing all the pictures/videos! 

Got a supercell brewing to my North West at the moment...think a tornado warning will be issued shortly. 

Expecting a strong tornado from this within the next hour...EF3 or above.

I am currently just northwest of Stoke. Maybe I should hang about for  bit. Or would you advise heading South?
