Some really close Shotgun thunder as the leading edge of this cell comes over northern Barnsley.

That storm was brilliant,one of the best to hit here in years,decent bit of hail too.

Spent the evening up at Mam Tor watching the cell come over from Nottingham,not much in the way of lighting over the peaks,one decent CG seen. Was pretty surreal as the most intense part of the storm approached seeing the Hope Valley completely disappear with visibility for about 30 seconds down to no more than 50m. Strong winds followed straight after and could see full distance again within a minute. Attached image is as the storm headed towards Manchester seen from Ladybower Reservoir.

The cells from the midlands are still just about alive as they clear the Peak District towards Wakefield/Leeds but only seeing occasional flashes at present.

Friend of mine in leek reports seeing multiple flashes and CG lightning from the cell around Cheadle

Distant lightning (twice) seen to my south west from Wakefield.

The East Yorkshire storm was a beast,unfortunately no amazing pics but one just for the record of it heading away from Goole. some impressive wind speeds as it’s back edge went through,easily gusting 40mph or so.

That's just passed over my head,nothing special bar heavy rain for 5 mins,few rumbles of thunder but we've had better this morning. Looks like it's brightening now.

Yes,I suspect the flash I saw was the SW corner of that cell.

Nice bright flash south of me,somewhere north of Barnsley,also some distant thunder,probably the cell to my E.

Nice little storm built up as it's headed north from Barnsley. Nothing special yet but it's just nice to finally get some rain!

Heard my first thunder from the cells pepping up in West Yorkshire,might Be worth keeping an eye on?

Really heavy inside the "blob",not big flakes,but plenty of them!
