The storm has now moved on heading North East from High Wycombe... PK that is in your direction I think. Angela

I am not quite sure how this forum works but a storm lots of thunder and flashes is heading from High Wycombe towards Watford... Angela

A storm has just come up from the Reading directions and is heading up towards Watford/Harrow moving quite fast... lots of noise a few flashes but no rain yet. Angela

Well, the last storm finished about 20 minutes ago heading north... now a second one is developing fast on its heals - sheet lightening this time - last one was folk... trouble is that storms seem to get stuck in the valley... Wonder if we will get cricket played on Saturday... crucial match Wycombe Warriers -v- Henley. Everytime I think it has gone quiet there is another rumble. I am going to risk trying for the car park and the drive home - Tuesday took 45mins longer than usual... 1 hour 30 mins to go 17 miles. Angela

I am reporting the 2nd thunder storm this week - so far it has rumbled on for over an hour... Tuesday's was a real humdinger - best I have seen since leaving Cyprus in 1986... the rain came down so hard it came in through the window seals at work... and it was all hands on deck to mop up... need to move to higher ground... Oh sounds like its going around the valley again... Angela

I have just experienced one of the longest thunderstorms... talk about flooding the rain was coming down the insides of the windows at work - the drainpipes are clogged... So its computors off, windows shut, fans off (and we have no air handling system at the moment) - but then its a fight with the traffic to get home. Angela
