    I truly feel bad for you guys in the south. I'm usually green eyed jealous but this was quite the British electrical embargo

    Nothing up here in Manchester. Of course. On a serious-er note my blitzortung shows some significant lightning in France about 40 miles sw of rouen. Surely that's heading towards the uk, isn't it? (I don't honestly know)

    At 9.05am I thought, "let's drive towards leeds". "Nah, it'll be gone by then, let's stay put." I would have been there by now :s Grimsby and Hull: keep an eye on that little baby near Peterborough

    Those came out of nowhere. I hope the sun breaks through and 'prepares' Manchester for bigger storms

    Daft non-expert question: given the cloud in Manchester here, would it be possible to get on local high ground and see evidence of the craziness that's happening in Ireland right now?

    Window open tonight methinks. Set the alarm for thunder o'clock

    I would still class you as in. I would say I'm out now. Wednesday night's rumbly scraping followed by a similar affair on friday afternoon; only I accidentally drove straight through a cell on the m56, in an attempt to traverse eastwards to catch the good stuff. Gutted I missed most of it but nonetheless, I'm officially out

    Yeah, I saw no bolts, just flashes. Is 800ft high or low for a cloud base? At the time, to me, it felt as if the storm was elevated

    I caught a few strikes last night but only the sheeting of them. The thunder sounded like it was fighting through stubborn air, a bit choppy strike 1~3.mp4

    I'm on my 3rd obvious rumble. The wait is over
  12. Another Kent clipper
    I hope tonight is the night. I'm in south central Manchester with not the best view from my biggest window

    I like it when supercells are not ruled out
  14. Another Kent clipper
    East Anglia is missed out for once. Unless the map is inverted of course

    That squall line was hilarious the way it bottled it on the eleventh hour. And then worst still, Tuesday 1st August; rain with electrical activity north and south of Manchester. No, I'm conveniently not including Rochdale, it takes too long to get to

    when you make your tweaks could you please extend the slight to cover Manchester? I promise I won't moan too much if it doesn't come to fruition

    It's all because I posted a guess on here MIA (as Chris Lea-Alex) that Tamworth would get a storm at 6pm on the 5th May or something. I had no meteorological knowledge to base it on, just a surface based hunch. I've temporarily jinxed it for the Midlands and for here in Manchester it seems

    Didn't the Midlands get a few cells yesterday? You know it's only a matter of time..

    Despite posting that I thought I'd heard a rumble this afternoon, I think now it may have been the bins from the other street. Nearest spheric at the time was like Rochdale. I tried to get on high ground but had to turn back at staylybridge to get to work. Manchester was in between squalls from looking at the radar. I'm happy for those in the west Midlands though, things seem to be picking up round there
  20. Another Kent clipper
    I think I just heard a rumble!!!! (south Manchester)
  21. Another Kent clipper
    A bit of early afternoon cauliflower and stuff in Manchester today. I was happy with that
  22. Another Kent clipper
    Well I had quite a mad one at work this afternoon but I took a couple of pictures of the April style showerage. Very on-off rain
  23. Another Kent clipper
    This squall thing has died a death as it worked its way inland. I thought I was well-placed for getting thunderboomers
  24. Another Kent clipper
    Would that have been technically a Cornado?

    Here's to an electric August people!
