    Just looked out the window at work (near Liverpool Airport) and it's as dark as night with very heavy rain!
  2. Stubbette
    The rain here has been so heavy in the last 1/2 hour that the traffic was slowing everywhere and the streets looked like rivers. Is that storm in the midlands moving Manchester way? Looks possible on the rain radar...

    Seems we had a power surge here during the storm (just stopped raining) and now have no water! Carinthian, can you lend me a kettle full please?!
  4. Stubbette
    It's still raining torrentially (just had hail too) AND thundering with loads of flashes (some impressive strikes!)... and the sun is out! I'm just up the road from Carinthian at a guess - about 3 miles closer to Manchester airport. I wonder if this is the last of it - my rain radar link's not updating.

    Tell me about it! Conservatory leak has soaked 4 towels so far! It's moving off towards the NE now here so still a rumble a minute, but it was overhead. Rain's starting up again now, but it's brighter than it was.
  6. Stubbette
    Spoke too soon! Can see it all now! A couple of miles away at the moment...
  7. Stubbette
    Rain's just reached me and thunder every minute. Huge clouds but no lightning yet
  8. Stubbette
    We have some massive cumulous shooting up to the east here, black at the bases. Really seem to be developing, but they're not diverting the manchester planes as yet...

    BBC Breakfast NW news reported funnels, an intense storm (10+ strikes per minute) and two houses struck by lightning and set on fire in and around Southport at 2am. Missed that one... again!

    Sorry, that's my fault - I put shorts on this morning! :lol: Is there any chance of this cloud breaking at all today? The north-west was meant to be in the firing line for any activity, and we've not even seen the sun yet!
  11. Stubbette
    Sorry, I've been smelling it out the window ... but it seems to be bypassing us. Bum!
  12. Stubbette
    I must be just round the corner from you then! Do you think we're going to get anything or will it miss us? I have to pop out to the supermarket and don't want to miss the excitement!
  13. Stubbette
    Can see the tops of distant big cumulous to the south of here, so I'm guessing it could be the storm that's in Staffordshire at the moment? Keep sending it our way! :lol:
  14. Stubbette
    Very dark with heavy rain just started here (5 miles SW of Manchester airport - I'm sure I posted SE yesterday, must have been the wine!) but no thunder as yet. Muggy as anything though!
  15. Stubbette
    Just having our 2nd one here now, worse than the first, but no thunder this time. Our road is a swimming pool! ETA 3 bath towels and 5 teatowels drenched. We really need to get the conservatory leak fixed, but it only ever happens in really torrential rain!
  16. Stubbette
    Torrential rain, electricity dips, distant rumbles and black clouds here - 5 miles SE of Manchester Airport. Anyone know if something's kicking off, as the conservatory's starting to leak! :lol:
  17. Stubbette
    It's very dark and oppressive here - 5 miles SE of Manchester Airport. Nothing happening, just a big black ominous cloud overhead not moving much...
  18. Stubbette
    All stopped now, just drizzling. Still, it provided a bit of excitement for 1/2 hour!
  19. Stubbette
    Yup, it's pretty heavy rain now and extremely blustery! Time to get the towels out as the conservatory leaks in downpours like this!
  20. Stubbette
    Just come to post about our stormette - some nice rumbles and flashes and torrential rain here - we're about 5 miles SW of Manchester airport.
  21. Stubbette
    It took me about 5 minutes to determine a direction! Seems to be building in size... can you send it back our way please?
  22. Stubbette
    At a guess, northwards - seems to be heading towards Manchester Airport away from us... Lots of little rumbles and a couple of loud ones here in East Cheshire.
  23. Stubbette
    That area of rain and thunderstorms has just hit us in NW Cheshire! Stubbs
  24. Stubbette
    Erm, I seem to be in the minority here but we're having the most massive storm here in Cheshire - near Manchester Airport. Torrential rain, maybe a strike a minute (so not too active) but enough water to make the rain pour down the INSIDE of the conservatory and flood the patio and road to a couple of inches deep! Seems to be easing a little now, but has been here a good 3/4 hour... Stubbette
  25. Stubbette
    Ours has moved off from Knutsford now - passed to the east of us, heading north, probably along the pennines. A couple of great close c-t-g strikes, and loads of rain. Still very muggy. S
