    still no thunder, showers have developed though , quite heavy, maybe this is all we get, looks a bit messy tbh
  2. IanR
    if that was just a rogue single strike that thunder sound carried a long way , that looks to the south east of warrington , maybe 15 miles away from here, wonder if it was a positive cg groundshaker
  3. IanR
    not a wheely bin , a definate rumble ?, must be what i heard then too, quite distant though, like a low faint grumble
  4. IanR
    as suspected, damn those wheely bins
  5. IanR
    going dark to my south , sure i heard very distant thunder, but now think it was a wheely bin, damn
  6. IanR
    doubt any thunderstorm for here tbh, the amount of times the nw gets forcasted storm activity, only for other area s to steal them i have lost count now,
  7. IanR
    ah well, all towering cumulus have gone, and left with this nice sunset and stable sky, not sure what this week will bring here but we have had 3 thunder days so far in 2016, hoping for quite a few more
  8. IanR
    had a huge mountainous cumulus building an hour or two ago, it just never got to the shower/storm stage and fizzed later
  9. IanR
    if patchy moderate rain floats your boat its a fantastic evening out there
  10. IanR
    how many times does this happen in the nw, lost count , we had all the lightning graphics and pecipitaion over us on the forcast , with other parts of the uk seeing not much on the charts , the reality is the south and west midlands got it, and whats betting southern coastal areas get somthing later, naff all here apart from spots of drizzle
  11. IanR
    always a bad sign, that carl, when an active thunder shower ot storm is approaching you usually hear / see thunder lighthing before tha rain, if its starts raining and there is nothing , it usually means there is nothing too been around long enough to experience this many times
  12. IanR
    the north west was forecast to be the focus of the storms this afternnoon and early evening, looks like the midlands was the prime area, hope these dont die off , as we are up wind, but feel they will fizzle by the time they reach this region, still have slight hope , but i am prepairing for dissapiontment, *opens bottle of wine*

    thunder here, saw a couple of forks of CC you could hear the hail coming like a train amazing, gusty wind with the storm, now calm again, third thunder day of 2016
  14. IanR
    does seem to be a reccuriing theme over the 3 years or so, mild winters, coolish summer overall, with the odd fleeting heatwave, the last prologed summer heatwave was july 2013, its seemed to go on a couple of weeks, slighty relented then reloaded the heat and sunshine , until august which was meh, since then heatwaves are short sweet and rare, just like severe deep cold in winter, yes our climate is now perpetual autumn
  15. IanR
    yes , the season of below average has begun, 10.1c
  16. IanR
    any decent temps forcast , been a dissapiontingly cool spring so far, seems sunny weather too has been a premum, i know its still early in the year , lovely crisp start clear sunny morning , but as usual, the thin high cloud is getting thicker and now making the sun weak and milky, there is an all too common greyness setting in again those days of a clear blue sky all day with strong sun but the odd bit cirruis waving across occasionaly seem history
  17. IanR
    just had a flash and rumble here , gusty winds, brief burst of heavy rain , all stopped now
  18. IanR
    cant join , already had the first storm of 2016
  19. IanR
    had small thunderstorm this afternoon, a few decent flashes and rumbles, heavy hail
  20. IanR
    this is exactly my point, to be fair though today has been good , very springlike in the warming sun, with just a hint of haze for the sultry effect , although its been far from sultry, i fear the rest of the week will be cruddy and cool
  21. IanR
    anybody else feel this protracted spell of high pressure is wasted, its rare thesedays, but we know this will end up a dirty high, and better use would be made of it later in the year such as late april, may or june when the sun can do its magic and burn the crud off, i fear this will be a spell of featureless grim stratus, and 'meh' temps to please no one, 9c and dull , no thanks
  22. IanR
    how can pleasant 16 temps be a nightmare, gawds sake, bring it on, its time for spring, not more dregs of winter
  23. IanR
    indeed, the nuisance factor faux cold sticking around now is adding salt into the wound for fans of real cold and snow, just go away and lets have spring in, you had your chance winter and failed , now naff off
  24. IanR
    I hate easterlies in march, pointless faux cold , stratus laden boring fest, although that cloud tends to break sometimes on this side of the pennines
  25. IanR
    soon to be entering that time of year when the months seem to have a better chance of retuning below average values regarding temps
