Nowhere swiftly, but lets hope it moves SSE.

Have been watching for about 15 mins, seems to be getting bigger. No lightning observed yet but constant growling coming from the top of the clouds.

Thunder here, no idea which direction the storms going yet

Plenty of different cloud types up there today

Some potential for early next week according to GFS

Have seen some of the most spectacular sunsets lately

Heavy ppn along the south coast of Cornwall, and a few sferics detected out to sea

@Flash bang flash bang etc  awesome pics, where were they taken? It looks like a good place for storm chasing as there's very little in the way, i.e. trees/hedges/hills etc.

Look at the Lightning archives from yesterday and today and looks to be our storm still active for almost 24 hours?

Yeah, hard to believe we bred that one in the channel

A screenshot from a video on my phone as the storm approached

Just been out chasing the cell that moved through Shaftesbury/Salisbury area, drove through some of the most torrential rain/hail I've ever experienced, A36/303 flooded in places. Saw a few nice CG bolts but most of it seems to be IC.

Constant rumbling here!

I'm taking today's potential with a pinch of salt

Storm near Brest still alive but has yet to make it's way across the unforgiving english channel

Lovely sky yesterday at Chesil Beach.

I tend to feel down in the winter months when it just seems like endless wind & rain, coupled with short daylight hours and not very much exposure to the sun. Most of my hobbies are outdoor activities which rely on settled weather, so I need a few good days inbetween to stay positive.

Looking West

[South West & CS England Weather Discussion Spring 2016 (26th March ------->)]

A lovely looking sky out there earlier. Clouded over now though

Underneath the convergence zone here,  a few heavy downpours but no thunder, great to see some active weather again!
