Can't see any flashes from here in North Kent.

I have some hope of some showers forming here in North Kent.

Fingers crossed really.

It's not very active now

Seeing flashes and hearing grumbles currently to my S/SE looks like another 'spike' is heading our way

Is the system now stuck in the channel? Looks like it’s stopped moving completely

Some cells just developed near me in Taunton, we had a brief shower and it didn't equate to much. The cells seem to be intensifying a bit though.

Which direction Liam? N I presume?

Last night Shropshire got constant lightning but tonight there's flash flooding with it.

From last night....

Elevated flashes to my S.

Doesn’t look like we’re getting anything here tonight still I’ll be happy with some rain I guess

Yep, the cells were moving north. Seemingly died down a lot since it passed over me, I don't think anything will come from this, but there is a small chance.

Behind the last lot, check out lightning maps and look to the French coastline

Should have been on Feb 14th a Valentine’s Day storm .

[StormLoser]

No. No. Just...no.  The rain area in the Channel is showing every sign of giving up and conking out.  I cannot believe this. Our garden needs water like the Gobi Desert and this happens again.

its moving westwards now, after that lot has cleared us within the hour, i think that will be it for tonight

[Ryukai]

The lines of Thunderstorms that the MCS is drawing into itself make it look like it's got spikes sticking out of it's back xD  Wouldn't be surprised if it starts spinning where they all meet o_O

Ahh, haven’t looked at anything like that since i hit the beach. Now home charging up and catching up. So what’s the heads up on this? Are we expecting it to channel hop?

[T4Toby]

We’ve had a decent amount here in Swansea again!! Continuous lightening, saw it from a distance so only heard faint rumbling 

 

[BlueHedgehog074]

Looks just like an Octopus

Couple of shots I took an hour ago. NW Wales.
