Everyone is very quiet in the east of our region. Thought they'd be jumping up and down with that lot heading towards them!

[LeeKay]

Just a cluch of straws but a weak cell is developing out of the Bristol Channel bearing NNE. Good placing if it can hold together for the Black Country area(s)

I'm hoping the storm in Oxfordshire take out the traffic lights in Oxford City Centre, never been so an angry at traffic lights till i drove through Oxford last month. Every 20m another red traffic light! Lol

Might be a good idea bud. I'll probably sleep, wake up and find I've missed out!

Cell near Leicester is developing fast, it was barely there 15 mins ago and now already got sferics.

Getting the camera and tripod ready, but tea is cooking so I won't be leaving home, just got to hope for it to come close.

 

Quite a cluster of strikes on the latest update!

[cyclonic happiness]

Lol! storm has just shot up over the top of us and then gone electric as it moved north over Nuneaton! Typical, but shows how much energy there is out there.

I can hear the thunder as I type :-)

Actually, it might have been the neighbours wheeling out their bins! Either that, or PolarWarsaw has fallen asleep and started snoring in a very big way
