Oooh a little light show, not much, but better than we've had all year, absolutely chucking it down too.
We're too easily pleased these days, it's why I'm heading back to Holland next year in the fond hope I'll see something!

Seems to be dying in it's backside on the radar, despite all the warnings of severe weather in the local news.
Most people round here ignore the warnings anyways as they keep being issued and nothing happens
I tend to try and ignore convective forecasts as so many (like this one) big up the eastern region and follow it up with precisely zilch.

looks like a squall line developing towards Leicester/Peterborough way....East Midlands might join on in on the action soon.
Unfortunately as always we are too far north west to enjoy anything as usual.
Try living in the east, it's beyond dire!

Blue lightning away to my SE. Getting brighter.
Thunder reported in B St Eds by a friend. Maybe it can limp over the border at some point!

Thunder reported in Bury St Edmunds now, maybe it can limp over the border.....

Lightning activity seems to have died out, leaving a whole mess of heavy rain.

Back to trawling YT for decent storm footage for me, it's the only way I get to see any lightning these days!

Usual Norfolk yawnfest, some excitement earlier with a bit of heavy rain at lunchtime, which is as good as it gets here. Looks like the action will stay west of the A1M or in the N Sea.

Getting dark here.
I think it's just normal twilight though

Check out this live stream by BigJet tv on YouTube. Heathrow getting battered:
Good old Jerry, I do love a bit of BigJet, although I do wish he'd stop wittering on about twisters!

Please tell me this isn't just going to be a SE affair again!

Hoofed it down here for over an hour, I couldn't even get back from the barn to the house so amused myself chiselling off the last remaining lumps of sheep poo cardboard from the ex-sheep pen and managed to off load the last trailer full of muck. No thunder but some boobies floating past on the back edge.

Blimey, that must be the first time I've seen rain intensify on the radar over my location!

Few flashes to the west of me earlier this morning...interesting skies but looking at radar most of the action further west...was hoping for this to be further east today but good for those getting the storms...
Have a look at Dan's forecast this morning. Interesting! There's hope yet.

Morning, all you Thunder lovers.
After those two blistering heatwaves during the Summer and with what must be higher than average S.S,T's in the English Channel, it should come as no surprise to experience quite a Thundery Autumn, especially in Southern Coastal locations.
We seem to be developing a Mediterranean type climate.
Thundery transition from Spring > Summer. I witnessed a couple of Thundery episodes here in S.E. London, in May.
This was followed by a pretty much Thunder free Summer, which was followed by a bit of Thunder as Summer transitioned into Autumn.
Being half Italian, I have witnessed plenty of Thundery episodes whilst on holiday during October, in Southern Italy.
Regards,
Tom Q.
I'll take the extra warmth (helps cut down on heating) but I'm sure the Med doesn't do dull and grey that often! Once again the east misses out....

A typical summer's morning in Norfolk, dull and grey. Looks like the heavy rain will as usual give this area a wide berth!
At least it's warm.....

Early morning murk has disappeared and the sun is making an appearance, so I can stop clceaning and get on outside, yay!!!

Well, isn't this a splendid early summer's day!!!

Well that's typical . I head back today, currently in Zadar.
Edit: Just checked, that is quite far south of Pag Island. I may have a chance in Zadar.
I loved Zadar, shame Sleazyjet failed to bring our luggage though, so we couldn't actually go anywhere in case the airport phoned to say it was being couriered. Missed out on trips to Pag, the Plitvice Lakes etc., some 60th birthday holiday that was...not. Will have to go back at some point to make up for it!

Very quiet day weatherwise, cloudy with very little breeze and warm enough to carry on gardening in shorts and vest.
If there are any gardeners, look out for a variegated Knautia with magenta flowers called Thunder and Lightning, I couldn't resist it!

Some rather attractive anvils floating about today, the wrong sort of anvils obviously, but almost the first decent cloudscape all year!
However, it should either rain all day or at night, this constant downing gardening tools for 20 mins every hour is starting to grate somewhat.

It always makes me laugh when I see a vid on YT or somewhere saying "severe storm UK" and it's has like 2 flashes of lightning in 20 minutes!
