  1. I didn't manage to see any last night, unlike the night before. So l am looking forward to seeing anything any of you may have captured, so thanks in advance for making the effort to film and post.
  2. I'm sure you've captured Lyrid meteor at about 1:40, correct me if I'm wrong. I managed to see 3 of them between 10:15 and 11:20 pm. One for a split second was travelling the other two appeared as bright white flashes. Daughter and I doing a meteor watch tonight.
  3. I was going to suggest satellites, there's been a lot on the move recently, however these appear stationary.
  4. Hi and welcome. Personally it's the pure rawness, you can't beat a storm exactly as it happens. It's all about the anticipation too, looking at forecasts, charts and radar watching. Good quality sound too, to capture a good crack of thunder like the sky is ripping apart does it for me.
  5. Buona pasqua, per favore tieni al sicuro.
  6. I managed to catch a couple of strikes, filming with my tablet. Will get daughters help editing and then I'll post them.
  7. Fantastic stuff, frequent thunder, caught 3 flashes. Loud and proud.
  8. Sferics on the radio very frequent and growing in intensity. Had 9 absolutely decent cracks of thunder, been looking to the skies in the radar direction not seen any lightning. Its really popping now.
  9. I have thunder, and the heady aroma of petrichor. Bring it on. Better than a chocolate egg.
  10. Just having a few spots of rain at the moment here in Macc.
  11. Same here, I'm about 57 miles from you. Started the day clear with altocumulus, crud set in from the north mid morning. Now low cumulus forming under it from north to east direction. Have my radio tuned into a station about 540khz, so hoping to pick up any sferics as the day goes on. The sun trying its best where crud levels are thin. Fingers crossed and good luck to all.
  12. Two strikes noted on Blitzortung, south of llanwrst, and one to the west towards Ruthin. Random strikes, looks like they are social distancing too.
  13. ESTOFEX are back up and running. When did that happen? Gone dull and murky in my part of Cheshire, very doubtful for anything convective, doubtful for even a drop of rain.
  14. Thanks for your reply, I wondered also if it could be the lack of flight data.
  15. ESTOFEX have no valid storm forecasts available, last forecast was 24/25th March. Has this service been temporary suspended due to the current global crisis? Am I having a mushy pea brain moment and missing something? Can anyone shed any lightning on the matter. Pun intended. Thank you.
  16. Yep, lovely walk to and from work today, tis feeling much cooler now.
  17. Morning all, hope you are all well. Yesterday would have been the first day I didn't need my coat on to walk home from work, but carrying some essentials home to drop off for my two vulnerables, I had to keep it on, and boy was I rather warm. Another beautiful day has dawned, another pleasant walk to work serenaded by bird twitter. Hope you all manage to get outside to soak up some vit.D cos going to be getting cooler. Keep safe.
  18. My heart goes out to you, it's a really desperate time, we are acting on advice given and praying it is the right thing to do. Perhaps now is a good idea to set up that thread of support you suggested on Sunday.
  19. Driving back from mums just over half hour ago, good mix of hail, sleet and rain. Did not see any lightning. Temp on the way about 7pm was 6°, dropped to 3° coming home. Light rain at the moment.
  20. My sentiments exactly. I read through the first few pages of this thread earlier and in comparison to what to what is being posted now is mind blowing, and in such a short period of time. Thank you for starting what has become such an important source of up to date factual information, this thread for me fills the gaps the news channels leave empty.
  21. Snippers very first post on this thread. This was ONLY 58 days ago. Unbelievable but true.
