That's a forecast, a forecast isn't a guarantee.
Storms like Snow can be very hard to predict, so they use a wider-general area for forecasts, as it's possible that storms could have developed/ affected your neck of the woods.
You never know, there's still plenty of energy in the atmosphere for more storms to develop. Especially Elevated storms.
I understand that, but they can say its going to be hot and sunny with a very slight risk of a few drops of rain, that would be much more appropriate. And if it does storm that's an added bonus. But all these Amber warnings of stormaggedon that amount to nothing is so annoying coz as I said it means you have to plan accordingly ie not going on days out etc.

Can you believe it? Yet ANOTHER bust for this area of Cheshire. 8th time in a row where we have had massive storms forecasted and we haven't even had a drop of rain. Absolute bull. I will no longer be looking at the forecast anymore as you change plans for nothing. They categorically said this morning that there would be dangerous amounts of rainfall and lightning this afternoon or evening. But as I said for the 8th time nothing has happened. Rubbish.

So my town had a orange warning today with unprecedented rainfall, intense lightning and 90mph gusts... Yet we haven't even had a drop of drizzle. What the hell, how can every forecast get this so wrong again. Last week was the same, be prepared for extreme storms. And again nothing. And I'm in Cheshire by the way.

Think the NW and Cheshire area is done now for today, everything else good will go southeast northwards
-
Well we haven't had any storms at all in Cheshire since September 2016, nearly 3 years now since I last heard thunder...

Just now, Summer of 95 said:
It had better not- it came from Oswestry direction, if it gets 10 miles away and then effs off in that direction it'll prove most storms are allergic to this area
we don't get any either, although it does seem to be veering more westerly now
-
N Shrewsbury cell has suddenly intensified, think it is heading NE towards Stoke and Macclesfield?
-
are those cells in Wales still producing lightning? looks like they heading NNE
-
officially a bust for my area, again.
-
I'm not happy, in fact I'm quite sad we are literally in the gap between the cells to east and west. it was only after it passed my town where it developed. and they always die before they reach us too and then rebuild after its passed. you couldnt make it up.
-
looks like once again we will miss the storms despite being in the 60% severe storm zone. looks like they will be to the west and east of us and we in the middle of just drizzle.
happens. every. single. time
-
No lightning at all in the UK, and it isn't going tonight I'm afraid. We in Cheshire, started the day with 60% chance of severe storms, this went down to 30% and now has been cancelled.

Even though we was in the green warning area for thunderstorms today we got warm sunshine all day. Nice in a way but still no thunder at all since Sept 2016...nearly 2 years now...
-
I love how everyday people come on here and ask 'will my area get a thunderstorm today'? Nobody knows, just wait and see. If you do you do, if you dont you dont. My town hasnt had a single thunderclap or flash since september 2016 so dont worry bout it. Some places get more than others.
enjoy the great summer we are having
Rant over

My live weather app says its thundering outside but its just cloudy and absolutely nothing on radar...strange
