    Afternoon all, Lovely large black cell passing ovehead here (north Brentwood) some mild mammatus and heavy rain falling from its trailing edge. One rumble but no lightning seen yet. I seem to be a storm magnet lately
  2. Wet'n'Dry
    That's my 2nd storm today, just passed through with 1 CG and heavy rain. Still pouring with what looks like more to come
  3. Wet'n'Dry
    A decent looking cell passing over London ATM. Also more dense precip behind it. South Essex and North Kent might well be in the firing line this evening!
  4. Wet'n'Dry
    Rain today suggests a short sharp event but several more to follow.

    I wouldn't dismiss her account, I've witnessed the same (funnily enough at my mums house) the lightning entered through the kitchen door window and exited through the main kitchen window so these things do happen. Just try getting someone to believe you.

    I fear not, probably too far north for you. Just had another 2 IC and CG strikes, plenty of thunder but the skies now clearing so that may be my lot for today but I will wait with anticipation!
  7. Wet'n'Dry
    Another IC strike and a loud 10 second rumble, anyone in Southend is in for a treat!
  8. Wet'n'Dry
    Fantastic stuff..... Horizontal rain and 5mm falling in as many minutes, radio still going mental and a huge rumble as I'm typing!! What a day, time to change my signature!

    I can see it coming, it's gonna give me a right spanking, big black and ugly

    The London storm is now moving into Kent/South Essex. Good luck to anyone in its path, it could be a wild ride!! Any AM frequency, it doesn't even need to be a radio station as the bandwith of lightning is so wide you will hear it wherever. This is the principle that Marconi exploited when he developed radio comms with Morse code using a spark generator.

    Eye of the storm or what? I'm completely surrounded by huge clouds and lightning/thunder .. Sorry for gloating
  12. Wet'n'Dry
    Any am radio station will do, I have UK Gold on MW and the strikes just obliterate the signal, you can also tell CG and IC from the sound... IC's are sort of stretched and muted where CG's are sharp and strong.

    Heavy rain and Thunder, plus my radio's going mental
  14. Wet'n'Dry
    A huge storm just to my NW, my radio picked up 5 strikes in 3 minutes, the IOW detector seems to have spotted them although the range is a bit generous!!!
  15. Wet'n'Dry
    I've been watching that build on radar, I think it might have my name on it
  16. Wet'n'Dry
    And the SE, there appears to be activity on the IOW detector right on my doorstep but I haven't heard or seen anything yet??
  17. Wet'n'Dry
    Just had a massive downpour here and more on its way. Can anyone explain why i'm seeing the dark storm clouds heading NE and low level white cloud heading South? It looks a bit spooky, also tiny funnel clouds are forming but not amounting to much!
  18. Wet'n'Dry
    Sorry Mike, another massive IC and thunder, spread for what sounded like 10 miles West to East.
  19. Wet'n'Dry
    I'm on the other side of that Lauren, 2 IC strikes and 3 rumbles, plus some very heavy raindrops. It's heading SSE very slowly so you may be lucky to get the tail end of it.
  20. Wet'n'Dry
    Locally now very dark skies, a few large drips falling and tracking approx N/E at 10mph. The back end is about 20 miles to my west and looks interesting but no sferics so I suppose it's not going to amount to much.
  21. Wet'n'Dry
    Awesome pic where are you?
  22. Wet'n'Dry
    Oooh that would be nice. I can see a line of CB's to my south that seem to have stalled in a line west to east along the Thames. Shame they didn't do much!
  23. Wet'n'Dry
    This is what it looks like from Basildon, not very well defined from my viewpoint but might bring some rain, not expecting much else though!!
  24. Wet'n'Dry
    I saw that article, but it's only an event in my eyes if I actually witnessed it, Basildon's quite a large area!
  25. Wet'n'Dry
    I share your pain, if anything happens here in Bas I'll let you know since you should be in the firing line.
