I can see that cell south east of here, it appears to have initiated from the line of mid level cloud that passed through here earlier.

This all seems to be kicking off earlier than forecast. This could be a very interesting afternoon!

Working on a water tower in Brentwood, Essex. 

Got a cracking 360° view to watch as things develop this afternoon, and as soon as I'm finished work......the chase is on!!!

Unfortunately phone signals terrible as we're upgrading the network so if I get any cool shots I'll upload later

Skies here in Reigate have cleared. Wall-to-wall sunshine. 38c in direct sunlight on the ground. Around 28 in shade. Plenty of energy here! I see we've got activity up north already.

Currently positioned in Stevenage, large towering cumulus to my WNW. A matter of time before it goes bang. Anyone know of any good vantage points nearby?
