Grey skies and showers here, with the South Midlands clearly missing out once again with storms favouring areas to the North, West, and East.
Haha. Yes we deserve to sneak in here in LB. We are in the Lee of the Chilterns, so from the SE and Dunstable Downs there is a near 150m drop. Cleverer people than me might know if that is anything to do with it!

Hehe well we had some biblical rain and constant thunder for about an hour, Didn't see any lightning other then the sky flashing. The power went out for a few minutes also. Was good fun, cant wait for next years storm
Ah well, not too bad all in all. We had our daily dose of steady, heavy rainfall. Thrilling

M1 does seem to be a dividing line at the moment. For stronger/weaker storms.

I'm just up the road near Wing. We have had lots of action this year but LB and Aylesbury seem to take a larger beating. The one a couple of nights ago did die down after looking quite massive in Luton.
I just want it all gone now. Bring on winter!
Agree. Aylesbury genuinely winds me up. Always gets a hit! See one now gone over us and intensified towards Buckingham! Ridiculous.

Its typical again isn't it bud...now all the action is to the east of us lol can't make it up
Yes. In the firing line for hours yesterday, darkest rain shadows in the whole UK. For steady, non thundery rain. Genuinely can’t make it up

Ugh. We get the lighter stuff here in LB. All the interesting stuff off to the east of Beds. The in laws in Bedford getting a pasting by the looks.
Some bits currently in Central London might hit us later. Much more humid than yesterday.

Oh yes, come directly at us now with the boring heavy rain! Shame you couldn’t do that on Tuesday eh. Bastards
Was running in the rain at lunch. Genuinely cold getting back to the house. Far cry from a ridiculously hot walk from the beach to the pub in Poole last weekend.

Lucky you just grizzle here. Dont think I'm in for anything
See above. Nothing special just torrential rain.
-
Oh hang on, might have a direct hit here from the east. Just torrential rain so far.
Update. So that’s the only white shading on the radar so far, just moved away. Torrential rain but no fireworks sadly.

That looks about that for now. Never really had a hum dinger here in LB, always just to the south of us. But ok with the fresher air now.
just months of Atlantic crud to get through before snow talk

Decent light show now here in mid Beds after the previous cells this evening seemed to pass us by.
A number of aircraft in a holding pattern away from LTN too right now because of the lingering cell over the field.
Yep watching them too. Finally a downpour here and one massive flash & bang, as last!

Poor buggers in Wizz planes trying to land at Luton. One has tried a few times and looks like it’s on its way to East Midlands or Brum.
-
Come on. Big white radar blob only a few miles away. Don’t you slide away to the south you blighter
-
Yet more storms approaching in an organised line from the SE, only for the LB storm shelter to rip it to bits and push it westwards. Few flashes towards Aylesbury, as per usual
-
Oh. Just heard thunder here in LB...not even looked at the radar for the last few hours. Bonus late storm or another ‘meh’?

Fair enough . Needs to be a rule though, location in name or post please

Holy c**p lightning just struck no more than a few hundred meters from my office, whilst I was looking out of the open window. My ears are now ringing. This is the Zeus' revenge for me complaining all summer about the lack of storms in Kent
Where though? The amount of time I spend going through a profile to see where people are
-
Hazy nothingness here in LB...funny that purple oblong of warning level 2 thing is basically marking an area of no showers...and all the action is around the outside
-
Lovely here in Tring Park. Quite humid and sun just starting to poke through. Car temperature was 17 degrees this morning, 40 degrees yesterday
-
Ah. Driving to Tring from LB and it’s suddenly pepped up from nowhere! Probably be like this all day?
-
As usual just steady rain with no thunder. Died a death as it hit the M1. Dull.

Oh. Not checked radar for a few hours, saw a few towers to the SW, thought it was still a NW direction, now it’s coming from the SW! Just heavy rain so far.....
