    Thanks for the advice. This is the first time i've driven this route. I planned to stop off at Niagra Falls and then on to Toronto. From Toronto to Montreaux and then back to New York.Sorry this is off topic but i want to hire a car that has a decent boot so i can get a couple of big suitcases in but on the hire company websites they are only really tell you the name or model. Any suggestions ? Thx Bofh

    yes really good cloud activity coming from your way. not sure what its going to do. can see really black clouds with low sagging pouches heading this way so might be a few sharp showers yet to come for my area

    now the wind has done a 180 the skies darkening again and it looks like the rain is coming back for a second helping. maybe its the rotaion of the storm and i'm getting hit by the trailing edge. wind speed is gusting 11.6 m/s at 1229

    rain is easing slightly but the winds have increased severley. garden table just lifted off and went for wander down the garden.

    wind has swung round and now blowing west to east. intense rain and gusts. can't see the base anymore but its heading north north east

    bl**dy hell its really kicking off. lots of rotation to my north and rain increased 2 fold. sky tv is cutting out and wind speed is increasing quite scarily

    not sure cloud is definately moving in different directions i'm going to venture out for a better look
  9. Bofh
    anyone else near reading seeing cloud moving upwards ! really strange. low straggly cloud is rising upwards. can't make out much more as the rain is blocking my view

    no let up here. few lightning flashes but more just intensive rain. did get lighter briefly but getting darker now. frm the meteox radar there is a red blob right over me.

    Report on N24 people trapped by flash flood in wales. still heavy rain here and loud thunder but can't see any lightning. maidenhead is flooding in places. i'm starting to get a tad worried myself as i live on a flood plain

    Still chucking it down. getting gusty at times with the rain coming from different directions. drains are taking a pounding and backup in places. not looking good if it doesn't let up soon as we flooded a few years back to local auth not clearing the drains of debris. heres the view looking east toward london

    just been out into Caversham / Reading and the roads are horrendous. Sporadic fork lightning and torrential rainfall with no let up for hours. Lightning seems to have petered out but thundery rumbles in the distance

    Just took this. Its our pool table in the back garden ! and as i type this the thunder is getting louder <_<

    Morning all. Update from Reading. It's p*ssing it down. Very dark i've got the lights on. Its like dusk outside. Had a few flashes of lightning last night but these faded quickly. Woke up to thunder and heavy rain. So far over an inch has fallen. Weather warnings galore for the area. Rain became so heavy a few minutes ago that a small river appeared in the road ! Nothing electric at the moment though.

    Meteox radar is showing different to Meteo24. Not sure what to believe at the moment
  21. Bofh
    Arrrghhhh yes the radar is showing it heading Due North. What the hell ?
  22. Bofh
    What do think our chances are of seeing anything overnight ? I have to drive up to Sonning at 4 in the morning and am getting concerned. or have i been reading to many threads lately
  23. Bofh
    looks like the system is heading in over cornwall. and judging by the sea state getting windy to.
  24. Bofh
    Not in Reading they're not! I have to take my son to school at 04:15 tomorrow as he's off to france for the day. Depending on how hard and where it hits it could make my trip to the chilterns very interesting indeed.
