keep the MW or LW to the same volume then if it gets louder than its getting closer :drunk: i put the station to nothing other than fuzzy(right at end of tuning) so all i can hear is crackling of lightning interference, play music elsewhere, but if you got one device than crackling would be over the music any way.my post on topic!!..

those in my area and south east we join the club later, in fact we could end up with some top rated cells overnight...

I meant in my location?

Maybe at 3am, but may just be rain by then, or getting daylight, seems to be pushing east quicker than forecast

Hello all, just got back from sitting on the beach watching the storm come in from the channel - amazing lightning show finished off with a healthy dose of large rain drops and cracking thunder. What a night especially as we thought we might be just that bit too far east!! :yahoo:

Sorry to be OT - Thundery Wintery Showers - I tried PMing you, but I got a message to say you couldn't receive messages?

Once TWS responds, I'll delete this message, if I still can.

Round 2 for the west midlands is organizing itself over the west country, getting ready to tap into all that lovely mid-level CAPE and go "BOOOOOOM"...and then Round 3 is developing further south in Biscay, I can already hear its hypnotic voice, whispering my 3 favourite words in my ear seductivley...."Mesoscale Convective System" .....:air_kiss:
