[Storm Reports 25th November Onwards]

Torrential rain, thunder, lightening and the most amazing rainbow I have seen in years. Fantastic sight!!!! Better than the summer this is!!

[Storm Reports 22-24th October 2006]

central london had this too

I was playing poker on my pc and the screen went blank along with an explosion. My pc came back thanks to my external emergency power supply (Needed when playing poker for £££). All our other poweer was lost and has just come back on. Amazingly the broadband and phone were working all the time!!

The first strike (That caused the blackout) quite literally came out of nowhere, no rumbles or previous flashes at all. After the first strike came about 6 or 7 more with crashing thunder that shock the house!! Storm of the year easily!!!!!

Wow we have had a storm here that was better than all summer storms combined. It has taken out the power in a 300 flat block!!! Amazing and came out of nowhere!!

[Mission Statement!!]

Hi All

Interesting thunderstorm passing over London Bridge at the moment, heavy rain with hail mixed in, small amount of lightning and thunder!!! Interesting for early March.

Cheers

Yep got some thunder and lightning here, dark clouds came from nowhere with very gusty winds and heavy rain.

Just heard a rumble or two here after a very sharp shower clipped kilburn.

[BBC Weather Forecasts and Graphics Discussion]

Ok, I'd be interested in some opinions here - assuming that the BBC is highly unlikely to increase time allocations to forecasts in the near future, what is the alternative?

Personally I think the alternative is the internet, as I said on the previous thread, so what can net-weather do to fill the void that in many of your opinions the lack of time etc on the BBC is leaving?

How about a daily net-weather web cast

[The End.]

I would like to add my thanks for some wonderful posts and pictures. A very enjoyable read. Im sorry you didnt get to see an F3 but there is always next year. My dream is to join a chase one day.

[New Bbc Graphics]

I have now watched the BBC weather for 3 days and I hate it so much its ITV from now on. Although I take a keen interest in the weather the one thing that sticks in my mind for the next day's weather is what symbol is over london

9 times out of 10 a simple symbol will do the trick ie: a Sun=Sunny, A Rain drop and a half sun=showers and a Rain cloud=rain.

With the new forecasts I forget what the forecast actually is as soon as its over!!!

[Storm Reports - 27th April 2005]

Nice hail here a min ago. Distant thunder but I think the main clouds north of me :blink:
