I'm based at barry unit as barry's boats officer :lol: but I was there because penarth unit wants boats :lol: and I was at a meeting sorting out what ones they wanted

[JonGill]

Not long ago (21:30) had a short sharp thunderstorm here in Norton Fitzwarren, couple of really close strikes, knocked the power out briefly a few times, now its rumbling away in the distance.

[dogs32]

All quiet in Swindon at the moment. That`s what we want dogs, some action, keep it coming my beauty. :lol:

lets just hope these are the type of storms that dont need the sun...but keep on going then we will be in for a treat in the morning

[remymartin]

that storm coming out of le havre is intensifying

[Kain]

Any chance of the west mids seeing any of these storms?

[YokTok]

Is that heading North.... if so I think I maybe in line for something, currently deciding if it's worth staying awake late tonight.

Lovely bolt of lightning here, looks very thundery indeed now, its about to hit in the next 10 minutes

[Kain]

:lol: It's all up in the air now. The thunderstorms which are meant to start affecting the SW in the early hours are already here according to the latest BBC forecast and will continue from now until the morning. After that, they then die a slow death before reaching the Midlands. However another line of thundery showers/storms will move up from France to affect mainly C-Sern and parts of the SE.

Bloody typical :lol:

They break off in a V shape as they head towards me, it's eather wales or the east that gets em.

I wonder if I turn norwegian and start praying to Thor I might get some lol

Elevated plume storms are capable of lasting the night sometimes. :lol:

[mark-anstee]

time for me to shut down lightning is getting much closer

[Darren Bown]

You can see the storm over le havre in France here http://oceanes.ville-lehavre.fr/Ville_en_images/Webcam.html

Wow it's really lightning there!

[dogs32]

:lol:

[Devon-Nelly]

Its been going more and more grey to the east, but the clouds arn't really moving very quick. To dark to see now But could possibly be a storm brewing just out to sea, i wouldn't put it past it round here.

The 12th June Event all kicked off with a small cell that developed just out to see and turned into a multicell monster which saw some of the most frequent lightning displays i've seen.

[Kookylou]

still going here!! lightning much more visible in the dark - i have to get up early tomorrow!!

so are these the storms we were supposed to get overnight and tomorrow morning?

[MP-R]

Fantastic thunder and lightning here now - both east and west!
