Quirky looking clouds. Do they have a name?
Mammatus. Just moving past me now! Shame the proper stuff is to the south.

Cracking thunderstorm...brilliant !!!
Sure is mate..and again...
Nice. I’m not allowed any decent action just because I got lucky visiting my folks the weekend of the Bournemouth mega storm in 2015

Hilarious looking at the radar at storms approaching us. They’re like planes avoiding a storm, first to the south west, now all to the east. Any storms approaching from the south literally dissolve as they get close. Need an expert to explain why.

This is building to the south...is it linked to the activity to the south of St Albans?
It’s over you now isn’t it? Just checked the radar.

Nice view of the Aylesbury storm directly to my SW. There’s an area further south that might get us in LB. Heard a rumble.

Meanwhile BBC Weather after the news….
Some thundery rain in the South West.
Finger on the pulse.

Wow this lot developed nicely, nothing here in SW Beds, usual storm shield in place. Fun watching some funky routes on plane finder app as they pick their way around the storms!

Ah so i wasn't hearing things!
Yep i have.
Couple of flashes and bangs from the one here, I face SW from LB -This one was sliding towards NW London

Can’t wait for some crisp cold weather. Instead of this Atlantic crap. I think the wind is even more annoying than the rain.

I have to run with my kid to school with him on his bike yesterday so got caught with the double whammy of looking stupidly at the BBC forecast and the radar playing up. Luckily put his waterproof on last minute as we got caught by that bloody squall line too.
Can’t believe it’s raining today too, no chance of a nice clean trough pushing through either..bits hanging right down to the south coast so bound to get wet again this morning. God I detest Atlantic weather, can’t wait for tomorrow.

Literally, this just sent by my mum at my Grandparents house, absolutely atrocious:
Yeah when it gets real it’s not great. We only had it that heavy for about 15 mins and there was water pooling on the patio etc.

Deal is going to get washed into the sea isn’t it? Stuck in a line of constant white shading on the radar. Not great tbh.

Cloudburst here in LB, probably heaviest rain I’ve seen here, like those videos of Winchester yesterday.

My observation. Rain coming in quicker than forecast. Only ever happens when I run commute in London
-
Couple of loud rumbles here. Very heavy rain in town, to the NW of here. Other showers likely to miss to by the looks of the radar.

@Buzzard that lot must be over you now, right? Not massively active but making a lovely crackling sound every minute or so!

Seems like that channel storm likes the look of Calais, constantly looking to build itself eastward.
Worked near Calais as a campsite courier in 95. Can confirm the area is amazing for thunderstorms

Still torrential here, not a whiff of anything electrical though. Just as a guide for any other hopefuls!
