so how do you do the listening to lightning thing on a radio? I have fm/mw/lw - is am the same as mw?
Yes. AM and MW ware the same. Tune into something either low in the range or higher so you don't get any interfering chat and music!!!!!
-
Just seen a flash of lightning around Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. Time to go and hang from the window I think.
-
Lets see what tommorrow will bring!!
-
How do you post screenshots of the Netweather radar?

CG boom 6miles west of here now, very dark base and again thunder.
I thought I heard something but it is bin day here.
It has gone very dark to my west/NW.

Another mini chase! Right under cell that has passed over, CG and IC seen, some interesting scud in the distance, mammatus forming, rain and hail core, with rainbow in distance but more like a smear over the distant rain and hail. Another cell behind me? Looks quite dark, managed to get mobile radar working Very pleased with all this interesting weather we are having
Where abouts are you?

Very windy here in Bury St Edmunds. Cannot measure wind speed but feels a lot stronger than last night.
Stay safe.

Hello lewis and 1200max, hope you enjoyed the rain : )
I was driving back from Ilford along the A11/A14 at the time of the downpour. Not something I want to repeat for a while.
Still had the idiots who thought it was ok to be going fast and the ones with no lights on!!!!!
-
The wind seems to have picked up here again in the last half an hour.
-
Yep some exceptionally loud cracks when it was overhead. Lasted only about 15 minutes - pulse type me thinks. May see some more action later on.
Here's hoping!!
-
Raining big blobs here and just had three loud rumbles of thunder. Radio is crackling well!!
-
Just come over dark here - enough to have to put the lights on.
Been raining most of the day but this feels different.
Edited to say it was only rain!!!!
-
I am down in Kent/Surrey this weekend. Do I stay down there until Monday or do I come back to Suffolk on Sunday?
-
Very nice.
-
Nice flash to the south and now the rain has started.
Just a couple of hours until it is dark and hopefully the storms/lightning will still be around by then. Keeping things crossed.
-
First rumble of thunder!!!!!
Edited: And the wind has picked up.
Edited again: The radio has also become lively - and another rumble.
Please let this be the start of it :excl:
-
Big old blobs of rain now!!
-
Raining here at the moment. No thunder......yet!! Haven't felt warm rain for years.
-
Given this and your post yesterday evening, I can't help but think that here in Bury St Eds I could end up in a sweet spot today.
Ooh I do hope so. Camera is charging as I type, portable AM radio has fresh batteries and everything is crossed. Just got to go shopping and then in for the rest of the day!!
-
Must remember that tommorrow is bin day and that not all rumbling sounds will be thunder!!!!!!!!
anyne else going to come forward and admit it lol|!

Wind has just picked up here and gone dark to the SW. There is a few spots of rain on my office window but no thunder as yet. Got one heck of a storm headache though!!!
