OOOOOh huge rumble of thunder or the missus in the bedroom. I hope it was thunder :wacko:

That next little cell is heading straight for me. Hope it holds it's line and intensifies a little.

Its Thunder but its to the north

[Craigers]

Nice thunder here. Only missin by 1 mile hah

[Snow free zone]

Looking at the radar that little lot to the East of Lancaster seems to be intensifying as it moves North.

[paul m]

Nice thunder here. Only missin by 1 mile hah

Same here and how many times it has done that this year is unreal

[Craigers]

I would chase it but not that active

[Alex95]

That lot moving into the North Pennines / SE Cumbria looks quite intense!

[Darren Bown]

I missed the whole lot. No thunder at all

[tomp456]

So to sum today up:

Precisely seven seconds of rain...

0 rumbles of thunder

0 flashes of lightning

Mother nautre, I hate you.

[Static Prevails]

Will there be any more convection or is that our lot for the night? I'm quite pleased about today, despite not being underneath the storm. I got some nice pictures, saw lightning and heard some nice thunder. Another to add to the thunder days list, which now is on six days.

Hopefully I'll get hit directly tomorrow.

[sunny scunny]

Incredible bad luck yet again, with about 3 storms missing my area by 5 mile.Nothing but the odd spot or rain here

[tomp456]

LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY!!!!

[Raidan]

Some heavy downpours here today,No thunder or lightning though.

[P-M]

That lot to the SW of Darlington looks very juice, but I suspect that it will be little more than light drizzle by the time it reaches the great northeast

[Katherine]

LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY!!!!

And now - all gone! Sky still quite dark!

[CalmBeforeTheStorm]

Good storm here that has just passed to the north i believe, some quite loud rumbles of thunder after the lightning, Not bad at all for late on in the evening

[carl1980]

heavy rain/hail shower one rumble of thunder about 10mins ago.

[MP-R]

Have just had the most monumental downpour of rain I've ever seen unaccompanied by hail, thunder or lightning - at least 15mm of rain in last ten minutes. Still coming down but not as heavy but more to come.

Heard thunder earlier to the southwest but nothing overhead - just lots of very heavy or torrential downpours today.

[Darren Bown]

That is a BEAST in N Lanchasire. Lucky people up there....

Lettuce all here.
