We have some more initiation around Lancs coast area moving NNE - seems to have burst from nowhere looking at the radar. West of Manchester now...- 2,726 replies

I would say so mate - it was pretty constant here albeit only seen a few flashes of lightning from the distance, it was more noisy than anything.- 2,726 replies

Same here - to be fair not sure what's happening as the radar is showing intense echos but not really reflected on the ground here. Also the line was supposed to have moved directly over me but not much change in activity..- 2,726 replies

If you head up the A1 or A19 towards Newcastle / Sunderland you should be able to intercept something which is moving west to east - a lot of activity on the front.- 2,726 replies

Not looking at the radar - the last update showed the storms headed NE from Blackpool area. Main thing is they need to maintain their intensity...- 2,726 replies

Sounds ace to me matey! I suspect it's something to do with the fact it was right over you and the area you have there so perhaps the sound bouncing around the hills / mountains? Either that or someone's windows have gone in haha- 2,726 replies

P-M replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
That's a good sign then - I always fear that the heights around your region will kill off any storms but today doesn't seem to be one of those days! Did the thunder sound like a very loud shot gun going off? If so that means it's pretty much right over head..- 2,726 replies

That's given me refreshed hope - thanks Nick. Just a question - are the storm moving NE from Blackpool area likely to maintain intensity etc as the head over to the NE region? Sorry this is an IMBY post but just curious. Cheers- 2,726 replies

Hope so - I just don't want it to fizzle by the time it gets here! It was clear blue skies before and now has become very unstable and convective. The main storms are still a fair distance away unless things break out ahead of the main band.- 2,726 replies

P-M replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
This set up almost reminds me of the thunder event we had in the NE back in 2012. Storms initiated and trundled from around the Blackpool area and by the time they got over the NE caused power outages, floods and prolific lightning that was to become the best storm event I had ever seen in my time. Storms around Blackpool right now look to be headed NE'ly same as then - I am sitting with all digits crossed that they maintain strength and continue the way they're going! Scotland looks like it's getting a good pasting right now - anyone with reports from that area?- 2,726 replies

Was about to say that juicy storm passing to the north of Newcastle on it's way to Scotland looks great on the radar. As per previous forecast storms trundling this way now radar active - let's hope they maintain and build as I'd like to see a good storm!- 2,726 replies

Some good little storms kicking about today. Lovely morning here again so far -- expecting it to get lively as we go through the morning and afternoon as the storm risk shifts over to this side.- 2,726 replies

Makes it even worse doesn't it that sometimes they can be so out of kilter with what's actually been shown from the Met. (Not just talking about today)- 2,726 replies
