Convective / Storm Discussion Thread - 31st May 2017 onwards
SarahWxm replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
It is weird as even though the sky looks gloomy and fearing nothing will happen, it also feels so still and eerie like it's just waiting to go bang. Don't know if that's my wishful thinking though lol -

I'm getting fed up and disheartened now. Sky just looks crappy and gloomy in East Yorks. -

Keeping fingers crossed! I'm just on my way from Sheffield back towards Hull and on the M62. Skies has darkened considerably but looking mucky and few spots of rain started. Very oppressive and temps 25c. -

Hi dangerous. I'm originally from Wrexham but currently on holiday just to the south of Hull. Are my chances better there? Would hate back home to get more than me whilst I'm away lol (which would be typical tbh!!) -

Is this going to be a bust now? All a load of hype for nothing or is the biggest risk going to be nearer sunset? -

Haha yeah I normally jinx things so hoping this is not going to be the case. It'd be my luck wrexham got more action seeing as I'm not there atm. I'm in Sheffield today but coming back late afternoon, staying in Raywell near Hull. -

I'm so excited!! I live in Wrexham but currently on holiday in East Yorkshire. Later today is looking absolutely amazing!! -
Just seen 3 cracking CG strikes far off in the distance, some intermittent faint flashing and 2 bright flashes through my bedroom window. Would these be the storms breaking out over Birmingham area I can see??

We'll I'm sitting in my kitchen, been reading this forum all afternoon and evening and looking at the lightning detector constantly! My weather station predicts rain, temp has dropped from 23c a hour or so ago and it's now 19.4c, but humidity rising steadily and currently 62%. Please can someone tell me, what are the chances of a thunderstorm in Wrexham!? I can't cope with the anticipation lol

That's all I've heard as well, though its still looking pretty black out there. Only thing I've been glad about is that I was going out and decided to bring my washing in before I went. Good job as there was some quite big rain drops. Never saw any lightning either :-(- 491 replies

SarahWxm replied to Jane Louise's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Been sat in the garden for the past hour looking at the skies and not a single flash or rumble, not even in the distance. Shouldn't be surprised though. Load of crap once again for this area!! Lol -

SarahWxm replied to Jane Louise's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Oh no, I'd be gutted! It wasn't the greatest storm ever but some good cracks of thunder (1 in particular overhead made me jump a mile!). There was some great cloud formations too. Hoping we get another one soon in this storm starved part of the country lol -

SarahWxm replied to Jane Louise's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Woo hoo nice thunderstorm over Wrexham atm. Only saw one flash of lightning but heard about 12 good rumbles of thunder, including one that shook the windows lol. Finally I've got a storm, shame I didn't see more lightning but can't have it all lol Took a nice shot of a double rainbow at the beginning of the storm :-) -

SarahWxm replied to Jane Louise's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I suppose that's something then lol. I'm gonna hope for the best, expect the worst as every time I've been confident something will happen, nothing has (well unless you class 1 bang of thunder as something happening lol) -

So.... Are you saying Wrexham may actually have a chance of a storm today?? Lol -

Feeling totally peed off as again been a let down here. Had 1 clap of thunder this morning at 6.20am and everywhere to the east of us were covered in strikes on the radar!! It's looked stormy all day and very humid but not even 1 drop of rain. So disappointed!! -
Woo am feeling more hopeful now. Sun is finally starting to show who's boss and it looks like the cloud might finally break. Keeping fingers, toes and everything else crossed!!
-
Hi, could anyone tell me how likely that Wrexham will get a thunderstorm today or tonight? It's currently very cloudy though looking like the sun is trying its might to break through. Not sure if it'll manage it though lol. I'm desperate for a storm :-)
-
Yeah, just had another small flash and more distant rumble, but seems like it is moving away. I'm just chuffed to see one flash of lightning though and I'm tired, but don't want to go to sleep! The atmosphere feels like its just gonna go bang in good style! Fingers crossed
-
WOW! Massive flash a minute of so ago. Was just drying my hair by the window and the flash blinded me. Nearly jumped out my skin!! lol. Good rumble of thunder just after too. OOOOHHH and again!!! Massive flash YESSSSS!
-
Actually just started raining quite heavily here and bit of a breeze now. The sky has that murky orange colour you get when storms are about.
-
I'm not far from Wrexham town centre and haven't heard any thunder at all, or seen any flashes. I was all set for bed a couple hours ago but may end up staying awake all night now lol
-
Ha ha! Well I'm normally too dozy in the early morning to think about anything but sleep :lol:
