Uk Convective General Discussion & Forecasts, 7th July 2012>
Hodr replied to Coast's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Just had a torrential downpour here but there was/is no lightning and I haven't heard thunder. It's quite suprising today actually. I expected things to get going around 4/5pm here but whatever did develop in Lincolnshire died pretty quickly and never made it this far. So far this year I've only had 1 unexpected thunderstorm, and the ones that looked most promising havn't delivered or dodged me completely. -

A lot more strike being detected. I hope these 2 cells over Lincolnshire can intensify a little cause they are heading right for us. I'm a little more confident to see something within a few hours now. -

I used to live up Mountain in Queensbury and can vouch for this. The snow drifts can be 10ft+ some winters and 3 years ago snow and ice was on the ground for nearly 3 months. We certainly don't miss out on the snow up here but last winter we did which was very unusual.About today, I think we might have a good chance around 5pm onwards for some maybe weak storms like the other day. -

It certainly looks like it albeit not as heavy and I doubt we'll see anymore lightning, not untill later at least. There's a heavy shower heading straight for you now but no lightning.. -

Not bad to say it's only 9:20am. The rain is easing off a bit now but more heavy stuff is building and heading my way by the look of it. Not seen anymore lightning but heard a few rumbles of thunder. -

Extreme downpour here, frequent CG lightning deep booming thunder. Very nice wake up call but I'm worried for the folks down in the valley. -

Thunder still rumbling away here, seems to be another small storm approaching. The rain was crazy! Edit:45mm/hr! which is suprising to say we wasn't really forecast that much. -

Another day of potential and another day of dissapointment here. Really sucks these past few years, we used to have massive storms in the 90s. The last proper storm was in 2005 I think and I've heard about 4 distant rumbles since then. . Still can't help watching the radar and looking at charts though. Temp 21c, 79% humidity, 17.7Dew Point. -

Dull, white blanket of cloud and mist here, very humid and warm. All the lightning symbols have dissapeared from the forecasts as usual. Not expecting anything remotley interesting rest of today or year. -

Hodr replied to Liam J's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
After yesterdays dissapointment here I won't be getting too excited . Heavy shower just passing over now but no Sferics. Can't believe the bad luck yesterday, 2 small rumbles in W/Yorks and Armageddon North, South, East and West. -

Hodr replied to Coast's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Anyone give me a rough estimate what time (if at all) that band approaching from the West will hit me? I would love to see something even slight now but am not really hopeful after how the rest of today has played out for us here. -

Aye, I reckon they might be having trouble with power though cause I'm sure we'd have seen a lot more pics and vids by now and I haven't noticed anyone from the hardest hit areas posting. -

Hodr replied to Coast's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I find it quite strange the lack of pics, videos or comments from Leicester and Birmingham and the worst affected areas. Maybe they are having power cuts with all the lightning and flooding, hope they are safe. -

Tell me about it Paul, it couldn't have gone any worse for us so far today. Storms to the North East South and West and we are stuck right in middle with nothing more than a few short showers. -

Quite a potent looking cell just popped up over Huddersfield with 2 strikes detected, not quite sure if I will catch anything from it or which direction it is heading though. -

I wish I could see the funny side to that but it's probably true for us. 6 Years since my last storm. Feel totally violated and cheated today by the weather after being so confident. -

Hodr replied to Coast's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
That's terrible news I hope there's no more casualties or deaths but I'm sure a fair amount of damage and suffering has been caused. That's a major downside to days like these but it is almost inevitable with weather as severe as some people had today. -

My windows are filthy after the showers from today. It's like dry salt and sand. Sadly that's the most interesting thing I have to report from today's weather. -

Halifax is bright and the sky is milky overcast, it's misty as well. Still quite humid but I think I've lost hope now of anything major happening. -

I'm with you man bugger all here apart from 1 distant rumble earlier and now everything is heading East or North East and missing me completely. I can't describe how I feel else I'd probably get banned!
