What a horrible day here, been under cloud all day. Happy that you guys down south are having fun! Does anyone think that storm just passing Durham is coming my way?

Hello all, Can anyone tell me what my chances are of getting something over the weekend, My kids love storms too and are nagging me for answers. I know I have a 70% chance tomorrow at 1600 but understand that can change and it's hard to pin point any storm action. Thanks

just move to Scotland , stormy weather at least every 3 months ...oh and free prescriptions

hello all ,not very often i post here but over the past two or so hours the wind gusts have increased enough for me to take note and see whats going on , so far i have found a couple of roof tiles in the back garden with little bits of insulation stuck to the fence(guessing its mine) , not much you may think , but the storm last week damaged my roof to the point water was pouring through the smoke alarm ,as it was connected to the mains i dare not , and would not, try and remove it , so spent the whole day with the alarm sounding till an electrician arrived. im thinking of bringing my two kids down stairs to sleep , my roof seems to be taking a pounding , i love extreme weather, but at the moment ,things are getting a bit wild here..even for my standards. hope everyone else is safe and well

just had some of that strobe lightning people down south were having the other day..haven't seen that for years , pretty gusty winds also ! .. can see the lower cloud getting sucked up above me..day of radar watching it is then

storm just to my west ,giving off some deep rolling thunder

come to daddy!!

does it look something like this ? if so then its called mackerel skies http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altocumulus_mackerel_sky

the storm(s) over me just now seem to be intensifying ..aircraft at Edinburgh airport are taking a flightpath east then south over my house(which they never do)..engines screaming as they do , can only guess its due to turbulence..must be quite nasty up there

storm still ongoing here , nothing spectacular, but im not complaining.. do you all think this as the last for my area tonight or will it be worth staying up till after midnight ?

thundering here now

that storm around Sheffield looks impressive ..

good morning everyone , what a lovely wake up call ! ..pretty intense storm , lightning every 5 seconds

oohh , i thought i was completely out of the firing line till at least tue/wed...thanks convective
