Amazing storm here at the moment, which is our 2nd storm so far today. This now takes the tally to ten so far this summer, so not too bad at all.

Not sure if anything else is going to fire up here for the rest of the afternoon really. Its looking more bare in southern half of wales where our showers were coming from.

Still managed a few rumbles though and its certainly looking lively on radar this afternoon in many areas, especially central and eastern england! As always the nature of these types of storms are a lottery on who gets hit.

That was nice.

Lots of thunder. One huge bolt above my head and instant boom.

Very good. Reminds me why I love the weather.

Radar suggesting not much more out in Wales heading this way, (plenty in other areas of Wales heading in somebody else's way though!) However, the sky to my west would suggest a different story. Will just have to wait and see.

Well naff all thunder wise in MK again so far. Showers keep heading towards here and dying out oddly, Cranfield down the road is showing in the NO:1 spot temp wise and it's currently 22.7'c here in the Middle of MK, so it should be releasing more SBCAPE I'd of thought, but alas not a sausage apart from a few spots of rain & light drizzle mega_shok.gif
