I put 50p in meter, might get electric back on.

Welcome back!

[karyo]

Torrential rain now!

[carl1980]

Wind has picked up ahead of the in coming rain

[Weather-history]

Raining here. Looks to me the frontal edge has lost a lot of the really intense echoes now. Get the feeling it is just going to be wet more than anything else but who knows. 

[Had Worse]

Just had a small burst of hail.

 

[dodge]

Aye as with everything from the East it takes a while to get going over this side of the pens but once it crosses over that threshold it's absolutely bucketing it down now.  Nothing thundery though.

[SP1986]

Could have swore I saw a flash of lightning then out the corner of my vision .. maybe it was just my mind playing tricks

[SnowThunder]

Just rain here not expecting anything else rest of the week looks pretty bland as well with plenty cloud

Just started chucking it down here! Sudden gusty winds with distant rumbles of thunder now a monsoon downpour in progress.

Wind suddenly got up here in Whitefield 

I think that could have been a gust front.

Caught something on my timelapse that night. You can see by the tree behind the detached house suddenly shaking as the gust front passes overhead starting 13 seconds in

Yes, very wet underfoot here in South Cheshire this morning but no thunder or lightning last night that I was aware of. A damp quite humid morning and further showers anticipated later.

[karyo]

A slow start to the day with cloud and some drizzle up to half an hour ago. However, now hazy sunny spells are developing and we thankfully lost the dreadful easterly breeze.

Fingers crossed we get some surfaced based storms later.

[Had Worse]

Same here, although the black bases of the CB's are becoming more numerous and we've had one heavy shower earlier.

[karyo]

Nice tower to the southeast of me.

[cheshire snow]

Well my lightning detector has detected Lightning strikes in the Midlands.

C.S

[karyo]

Towers shooting up in every direction. I get the feeling that areas just to the east of Manchester will do well in the next hour or so.

[Rush2019]

Same around Macclesfield, some huge towers in every direction, went dark 20 minutes ago, but it resulted in just a shower.  I don't know if there was a rumble, lots of noise outside at the moment, traffic, building work in a nearby property.

[A Face like Thunder]

Yes, and some dark clouds coming up from the south into South Cheshire.

[karyo]

It went quite humid for a time but feeling fresher now.

[Had Worse]

Lorraine has arrived, I didn't invite her but she's p1$$ing big time on my head.

[Rush2019]

Mass of bubbling convection in the distance north west of Macclesfield, out towards the Dee estuary at a guess.

[severe snowstorm]

Clouds rapidly developing into large towers in multiple directions here.

[karyo]

Those cells east of Liverpool look healthy. They will probably give some thunder soon.

[loubie_4]

Had some booming thunder here - currrvtly under a torrential downpour. Not seen such heavy rain for a long time

[severe snowstorm]

Deep roll of thunder here.

[loubie_4]

Proper storm going now. Frequent thunder and flashes.
