We are in the same boat, just two rumbles here so im guessing im doing better haha. I have a good feeling about this one though, something seems to be different about it.

I will believe it when I see the lightning, even then I will question it. I wonder what has changed in the past 20 years to push the storms further east? or did this happen a lot then as well? Am I just compressing memories together to make me believe that there used to be more storms?

Yay Estofex is back! http://www.stormforecast.eu/

Cool cams those im watching the 4th stream, its a shame we cant get storms like this, we had nothing not even a rumble today. Disappointing.

Stayed up really late last night and we didn't even get a wet fart, I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed but that's the game. NW France, Belgium, Luxembourg And the Netherlands looks like good spots later. I really think we need the pesky channel gone.

Thought I'd check back quick and storms have started producing lightning ha to far south and too light to see anything from my location which is currently wrapped up in bed. If it gets close then I will move but for now I'm too comfortable!

Just looks like a line of normal showers, I do not get how all the models could be wrong about the overnight hours and good forecasters. Its so frustrating, tomorrow the same scenario will happen... we will all be cam watching. Same here mate, clutching at straws I think. They are the lucky ones then.

The problem is the UK not the ingredients haha. Its a shame/

False positive, I saw it also but then the computer software corrected itself.

I keep seeing false positives that disappear.

I hope it was the Union Flag and not the French invading! Its starting to get light im not sure if im going to head off to bed because this stuff looks like its not going to do much other than the odd flash of lightning. Even the Biscay stuff is dieing.

Looking good, I might be a bit far north to see it spit lightning though as a thin layer of cloud has slid its way over. I just hope more builds to the west as its making a its way directly for Central London.

Another has shown up south of Brum im guessing just north of Worcester. Or not im sure it was there for a second.

?Hasnt hit the shoreline yet hopefully orographic lifting comes into play but im not sure if the south coast has the elevation.

I believe that that is a false positive. Looks a bit like anoprop.

Where are you seeing that? Im looking at both Sat and Blitz and I cant see anything?

Not with bare feet, Euro mouse spiders have one of the more potent venom's found in any UK spider. Back to storms looking tasty over the channel but I have a feeling this stuff is not going to get here until mid morning at this rate unless it can gets wiggle on.

Haha im talking about European Mouse Spiders, not as scary I can tell you, they are beautiful they have shimmering grey hairs on their abdomens with brown legs, that's why I think this was a mousey but I am not 100% sure. Sorry dude but this thing launched itself at me when I was trying to help it haha.

No problem I had a serious phobia of storms until I was about 14/15, I can still remember to this day my father putting headphones on me during storms, it also helped me as when I was ready to take them off my dad was there for me. Sometimes I still get worried about storms, I have a condition called Alopecia areata when I get nervous clumps of my hair fall out and I still have a bald patch from my parents leaving me in charge of their house whilst on holiday and there were storms during the night, the first time I had ever faced a storm alone.

I am glad there is at least someone on this thread thats not directed by their feelings (like me haha) Also is this a Mouse Spider? It abseiled in front of me and when I went to move it away with a bit of paper it became very aggressive and went straight for the paper I have never seen a spider do this before normally they run away, it then ran under some baby wipes, when I picked up the baby wipes I took this picture and it was froze like this and then ran away before I could get a glass to move it out. This is the second encounter with a mouse spider if it is, last year one ran up my the inside of my leg but I was able to get it out before it bit me. Dont worry I didnt harm the spider I actually love spiders in my house as they keep pests away.

Overhead headphones playing calming music and gloves. I still use that to this day to calm me down.

Sorry that was my fault... haha

So what is the trigger for these storms? Even France is quiet right now. Typical I could pick any other hobby avaliable in England yet I am drawn to the two things that elude us the most, Snow and Thunderstorms. haha

I think this is going to be a massive bust if im honest. Only tomorrow will there be storms... maybe.
