Rather limited activity around these parts today which is unfortunate. One would think that the area with the largest CAPE would at least see the showers developing but thats not even happening here. I seek assurance in that the chance of thunder goes on into the night but otherwise today is becoming a bit disappointing so far.

Absolutely nothing happening round here. Spitting with rain and gone a bit darker and thats about it. Grrrr. Any chance of something later I wonder...

Have a lovely view of that cell from here over N B'ham - dark, menacing clouds and some nice scudding going on beneath the cloud base.

Edit: Nasty sounding thunder here now.

yep, the forward edge of the anvil is overhead here, but the most active part of that cell (near Harborne) will drift up to my east, towards Great Barr & Brownhills, I think....Another cell has fired up near Tamworth, a nice view of the anvil from my back garden, and a potent looking cell is heading towards Telford, to my west, again nice view of the encroaching anvil from my front garden

...probably heading a bit further east actually, more towards Sutton Coldfield

We had a thunderstorm here today. Lasted around 30 minutes torrential rain and fork lightning. Loud thunder and a little flooding. :D

A heavy shower came from nowhere this morning,followed by a pretty lively thundery shower with lightning to the SE died as it went that far north,followed by a less lively T shower but there was one loud crash to end.

Overall showers were not all that heavy though.

But it`s 4 years since there was thunder in september. :drinks:
