Thunderstorm over Tyne & Wear between 3:10-4:00pm, very little rain so we must have

just caught the southern edge NW rainfall radar confirms this.

A rare thundery day here in the northeast today,with the first storms kicking off around midday and continuing off and on for the afternoon,and still the odd rumble even now.

Some flooding has occured in places,which perhaps isn't suprising given the impressive cloud structures around today.

Very rare occurrence on the Isle of Lewis of a Thunderstorm with torrential rain and hail at 14:00 hrs lasting for 50 minutes

Loud cracks of thunder with CG lightning. Pea size hail for a a couple of minutes.

Preceeded by very well marked wall cloud moving in from the SSW.

Quite a surprise as earlier than I thought it may occur, but nice to hear a few rumble before it headed northwards. Not alot of rain though in the water butt this morning :)

A brief but heavy thunderstorm passed over Bristol yesterday evening with very heavy rain indeed and quite a bit of thunder. Have had a few intense downpours this morning also but no thunder.

Heavy rain, thunder and lightening...the first of all week (bar some light rain overnight one night).

Been reumbling away for the last 10-15mins.

Seems likely the Northeast will lose the title of being the worst place for Ts as weve just had another..!! :doh:

Really impressive structure with about a dozen observed lightning and 20+ thunderclaps some very loud.

Still raining but no electrical activity seen or heard now. Not a bad ½ an hour storm..

Was a storm here at 7 PM'ish this evening, though I'm not sure I would call it a storm as much as I would a cloudburst with thunder and lightning.

The best part what that big flash about half way through with very loud multiple booms, I'm guessing it was a very big cloud to cloud type flash moving along the base, though I only saw the flashes it generated rather than the actual bolt.

Here is an in progress radar image I uploaded of it in the convective discussion:

On Ferriby Foreshore (about 2 miles upstream of Humber Bridge N bank) at 13:00 looking SSE. Heard thunder from storm to NW that was moving NE - distance about 5 miles or so.

Second storm approaching from SW at same time was peppering the Ancholme Valley (Lincs) with CGs - up to 4 per minute. Watched this for about half an hour as it moved across the estuary and over the Humber Bridge. Nearest lightning to location was about 1 second between CG and thunder.

Lovely vista to watch a storm - most surreal experience was, in the middle of the storm CGs everywhere, a man pulled-up in his white van and unloaded three crates of racing pigeons!

Dangerous sport?

PS:

Thunder SW of Sancton E. Yorks at 14:30

Thunder heard W then N Beverley E Yorks between 19:15 and 20:00

I went on a bit of a chase from the New Forest to Alton. Although there weren't really electrified storms down here, the structures were still good.

So I decided to see what was at the end of this tail... chasing down back roads that were flooded from the core made it difficult:

I thought I could see a cloud lowering through the trees just infront/above me, whether it did actually drop I couldn't see but I found this scene around the next corner!

And the prize at the end of the rainbow, this anvil:

What a nice local chase this evening for a change. :)

Some notable storm action in the northeast today,especially around the newcastle area where there was some local flooding as well as plenty of thunder and lightning.

There was a funnel cloud seen in the stanley area at around 1.45pm,which was also spotted by myself and a few other members.

Quite remarkable for this area. :D

Obviously never seen that funnel cloud but i did seen one around here yesterday morning, Lorrie would also appear to see the same thing and it looked like a developing funnel cloud. Only lasted for around 30 seconds but interesting nonetheless. :D
