  1. Rainfall seems to be getting heavier as it approaches the south coast. Wonder if it will give any thunder?
  2. BBC says that thunderstorms are expected across parts of the westcountry today. Fingers crossed, although its very overcast here this morning with a few large spots of rain
  3. Is there much chance of storms today? Got some pretty black clouds here with a few spots of rain. Getting bigger and blacker as i type
  4. Flew back from Turkey this morning and passed some very high cloud tops at around 5am/ 5:30. I think we were over france at the time. Very turbulent too. Had some nice storms while we were in Turkey also, but many of them were North of our Location.
  5. Flying out to Turkey 9 o'clock tonight, so hope for something before then, just to kick the holiday off in style.
  6. Yes mate, a lot of those strikes are orange, so about an hour or so old. There are a few white (recent) ones though, but not as regular as they were
  7. I don't think the south-west will get anything else tonight judging by the direction of the storms in the bay of biscay, although the south-east might
  8. Godot,,realy nice mate, all lightning seems quite a way off from here, gonna shoot out again in a minute
  9. Can see lightning to my west from here every minute or so, probably somewhere over Devon, along way off though. Is there nay more due after this batch or will this be it for the night for me?
  10. It's just heavy rain mate,, no thunder as of yet..
  11. much the same... I lterally looked way from the skys for 1 minute,, looKED BACK RIGHT NOW AND i HAVE VERY DARK SKIES,,,, gONNA TKA SOME PHOTOS
  12. Look at whats coming up from france,, sweeeet.. That look fierce
  13. Don't count your chickens mate South-east Thew main event is tonight,,, Shoewrs headingbup from france, not homegrowns..
  14. Camera batteries on charge, now just wait.. Thats assuming anything tracks across somerset
  15. I stand corrected then, nothing on the detector from that area though. Is there any chance of anything hitting somerset/west country tonight. If not I'm off to the bed
  16. The showers moving off from Cornwall are'nt realy thundery though, just heavy rain I think
  17. I'd be surprised if any one gets anything tonight, to be honest.. Look at what is pushing west off the south coast of England, if that made land fall it would be rather special, but it wont..
  18. If anyones got a boat,,, lets set sail. I believe thats our best bet of seeing any convective activity this evening. Although the storms in northern France seem to be tracking toward the UK, I think they will track along a western direction as they near the UK, maybe clipping the south western tip of the country, much like last night/yesterday
  19. Seems like another one of those situations when we all anticipate the arrival of thunderstorms when in actualfact, most of us end up with nothing. But part of the excitement is following the developement and the anticipation.
  20. I'm actualy being sefish and only talking for myself,,,, anything that needs to travel the continent here will probably doe before it even starts to head this way
  21. Looks like anything coming out of france/continent,,, will not even make land fall... Will probably die out over the sea,,, if not will probably head west along the south coast. Just like last night
  22. Right, I want to go to the pub, but will stay at home if anythings likely to hit Somerset, any thoughts?
  23. Looks to be some rain pushing over from the continent at the moment, according to the met office radar. Heading towards East Anglia.
