Interesting variations between some of the lightning detectors available. If you look at the Meteorlogica site half the south and south east seems to be beset by storms but not showing on other sites. I suspect we'll stay relatively out of the main risk area?

Storm no.3 sorry EA guys that are storm starved today.

@guy in last thread, your mate was not lieing, about 10 miles easy of Leicester I realised all the fields were half white, there had been 10p piece at least sized hail, was amazed.

Stormy in Melton Mowbray noW

He's none too pleased about it all. I suppose non weather aficionados are likely to be hating it, especially if they are suffering because of it.

When you think about it, although many of us are a bit envious, there are many, many others there who would be envious of our sunny, hot day so far.

Anyone seeing any potential home grown storms building, after clear skies about 2 hours ago the cloud has started to bubble up in Southend now.

I know stuff is firing up now, closer to home - like Norfolk.

Edit and a shower is developing just to my west, near Chelmsford! The sun has gone in.

If it's the storm east of Le Havre, it looks like it blows into the weeds anything seen in Britain today. Pity it's not heading our way.

I'm having major problems today, viewing the radar here and other models.

Reports of extensive damage frOm

The hail in the mIdlands, really not surprised considering how bad some of the storms were that I saw

Yeah saw that, just shows how bad our weather can be sometimes.

When I knew there was a storm risk today I never imagined it would be this bad, think they may have been supercells earlier with loads of lightning and reported golf ball sized hail.

[Steve C]

There's just been a flash of lightning near Dereham in Norfolk.

There's just been a flash of lightning near Dereham in Norfolk.

Really?? I'm about 4 miles from Dereham and there's nowt in the sky to suggest anything remotely resembling even the smallest teeny stormette!

Could be the storm indicator here then...

That storm the grew out of nowhere near Rouen is a beast.... It's huge and pretty severe probably more so than the ones up north today.... Shows how much energy there is waiting to be unlocked.... It's 27c here with dewpoint of 21c..... Sticky.... But quite a gusty wind....

any chance that the storm will make it accross to us

[Timmytour]

Seeing that action in north west France now....feels like we are the middle of a dry thunderstorm sandwich :-(

[snow raven]

Shall we all do a rain dance and will those storms over in Northern France to move in our direction?

I really think we should be rewarded for putting up with this heat and humidity!

[Coast]

My word for today:

op·pres·sive/əˈpresiv/

Adjective:

• Unjustly inflicting hardship and constraint, esp. on a minority or other subordinate group.
  
• Weighing heavily on the mind or spirits; causing depression or discomfort.

My song to sum up today... So Close - Jon McLaughlin

[janetmh71]

Could do with a storm around here pretty hot and humid indoors. Would be nice if that storm to the north drifted south a little :-/

[Jimmyh]

think the Rouen storm is starting to migrate north

[Will Padz]

Something is developing nw of that Rouen storm.....look at the radar/ satelite relay......

[Norfolk Sheep]

If I hear anyone else say "the south/south-east/east always get the storms" I will do them a right mischief

[Keraunic]

Hope it reaches us. I'm mafted and I sooooo want a storm.
