  1. Getting quite nasty now, lorry gone over on the Bideford Bridge and gusts are getting stronger by the hour.
  2. The wind is certainly gaining strength now the leading edge has passed through, dread to think what it will be like further North.
  3. Yep stevo, I think this is where the fun starts!
  4. Starting to get some very strong and prolonged gusts now, slightly concerned as to what the next few hours will bring.
  5. ITV News make me laugh, They are reporting a "once in 50 year storm event" starting tonight. If this is worse than the storms of 86 then why are they the only ones warning us? A quick search reveals their source as the Daily Fail........That figures.
  6. Stunning pictures Paul. Wouldn't want to get hit by a hailstone that size though.
  7. Did the same as you Kaz, stayed up until 1.30 but everything seemed to be moving over Exmoor/ Somerset way. Storms were moving very fast and sprung up out of nowhere! Hoping for some more later on this evening if the sun does it's stuff. lol.
  8. Had 3 storms pass through in the last 3 hours, were moving very fast, didn't last very long, plenty of rumbles though. Maybe we might be in for a few more yet.
  9. Damn! storm is passing to the south of me constant rumbles of thunder looks like a very lively one may have to jump in the car and travel south of Bideford.
  10. Skies just gone black maybe the first storm of the year!
  11. I reckon you guys in Bristol may get a deluge within the next half hour or so. It's just passed over Barnstaple (very heavy) and some thunder thrown in for good measure.
  12. Those showers along the N Cornwall/ Devon coast have been getting heavier with each one. Just had a small storm pass over Barnstaple and it looks like there maybe more following on behind.
  13. stayed up til 3.15 to watch. The night chasing looked absolutely awesome. I'm pretty sure that as you approached the hook, i could see (through the lightning) a funnel dropping just off to your left. I must say the footage and your dedication to get it is very much appreciated. Maybe next year i may just get to see it for myself.
  14. Awesome lightning!! Made me laugh when the lads all dived for cover into the car.
  15. Keep holding out Harry these are strong cells and if you look at Sat24 radar there is a definate hook on that cell which should bring it over your way more later on. Now what you really want is for the bigger cell off the south coast to wing it's way a little more Northwards and hook up with the Kent cell and BOOM!
