Taken from Bracebridge Heath near Lincoln. Amazing structure to this storm, enjoying watching it move towards me putting out regular fork lightning!

Very hot already and not a cloud in the sky in Lincoln, doesn't look like surface heating is going to be an issue in the east! Fingers crossed everything comes together this afternoon to make use of the conditions.

Must be an incredible light show if you're anywhere near those Stoke/Birmingham storms - looking west from near Lincoln I can see faint flickers in the sky, about 70 miles away as the crow flies!

Not a single strike recorded in the whole of Lincolnshire...yet.

Give it an hour or two and there's going to be storms all over the place, the conditions seem to be absolutely perfect for growing storms.

The sun is breaking through a lot earlier than yesterday here at Coningsby. Feels very muggy already too, can only be a good thing for Lincolnshire's chances later on.

any chance of it moving east
There's a chance of it doing anything at this stage.

Here's something to whet the appetite...

Few bits popping up in the channel?
I think/hope there's still time for the main event!

Looking west from Lincoln, looks like the cap is holding firm, towers going up and then just stopping dead.

Fingers crossed it'll reach us
I'm keeping an eye on the triangle between Stoke, Birmingham and Shrewsbury for storm development which may effect us.

There goes the cap!

A level 2 was issued for Northern England mainly for (very) large hail, severe wind gusts and tornadoes.
Good grief, I'm not sure I've ever seen a level 2 sitting slap bang over the UK!

My God the BBC are scared to talk about storms in Scotland. Their graphics hardly show anything for the early hours but the storm forecast on here suggests otherwise... Gonna have to wait and see but I'm not sure why they're so reluctant to mention storms
I've noticed they're always very hesitant to forecast storms. I guess they're so hard to predict where and when they're going to pop up, that they don't bother forecasting them much at all for fear of being incorrect.

I think so yes. The one that moved over my area I tracked from around Blackpool / Preston ish area and watched it blow. It was the rainfall that was unprecedented up this way - I have never seen so much rain fall at once. But I remember some intense storms earlier on further south so that sounds about right.
I remember it all kicking off that day but it was before I really took an interest in the weather, so I thought nothing of it at the time unfortunately. Only looking back on it now do I realise what actually happened and the severity of it!

This storm was a monster. I seen walls collapse and streets turned in to rivers it was amazing / scary at the same time. I work for a housing company and two of our houses were struck by lightning and burned to the ground. So much respect is needed for these weather events but I love seeing them unfold (obviously not the damage) but the light display was amazing I have never seen anything like it.
Am I right in saying on that day there were two storm systems at once, one which moved north easterly from Birmingham area through Lincolnshire whilst the other moved north easterly from Manchester towards Newcastle area?

Leicester is the best bet, CU tower on sat24 and heavy precip out of nowhere on the radar.
Looks like it's game on.
Edit: maybe not.

Already seeing a few faint flashes of lightning from just south of Lincoln! Must be from the stuff in Cambridgeshire I guess
