Yep, shocking. Time and time again this happens- all veers off east; east east east.

 

To those getting and those who will get storms, enjoy them

Sky to the south flickering away every minute or so. Moon looks spooky with the cloud passing in front. its these kind of nights that terrified and got me interested in weather as a child!

[SnowJoke]

OMG OMG OMG, i just had an accident in my pants, I can hear thunder rumbling in the distance, sounds like it's coming my way 

[Darren Bown]

Tiny blobs appearing in south Cheshire on radar. Hope it's not anoprop!

[sconetone]

Thunder and a decent light show to the east of Darton, Barnsley, south yorks

Thats where my photos came from with that storm. was over goole area!

[I Cumbria Marra I]

Must say iv never seen thunderstorms develop overnight, normally just die out when it gets dark.

[topbanana]

That's it. I give up for the night.,

24c outside. no wind at all.

 

bet I miss all the fun, but gotta try and get some sleep

[UKVoodoo]

Can confirm the storm an hour ago over Selby....just erupted from nowhere

Disappeared just as quick too after a few violent rumbles

[ZONE 51]

Sounds about right, seemed very electrical for a while then just stopped

[East_England_Stormchaser91]

Seeing lightning here in Borough!!!!

[IanR]

From the latest output, the main area that stands out in my eyes is the area around Cheshire for convergence storms to erupt. This ties in with expectant GFS and to an extent the MetO (although the MetO are keener to place similar multicell storms in the same areas already previously hit by the earlier storms).

cheshire , you must be joking, wont happen tonight for sure, no matter what the charts say, that I can guarantee, the north west has become appalling  for lack of  thunderstorms recently, was never the best area anyway. but we did get a few decent ones each year, something has inexplicable changed imo

[Arnie Pie]

Managed to catch the Hinkley to Nottingham cell as it started its journey.....once again excuse henry Tarroni`s scrap yard hanging of the end of my lens

Yet no-one will believe just how bad it is. They think I'm making it up!

[MP-R]

All this lovely CAPE here and those showers from the southwest are b*gg*ing off. Come on, I need to go to bed!

[Hodgheg]

I shall stay up until 1 as I have to be up at half 7 in the morning for work. hopefully anything else can hold on until about 5 tomorrow lol.

[Supacell]

Surprised those cells to the south of Brum aren't electrified considering the ripe atmosphere out there. If they can electrify then they are on a collision course with here and it would be the first storm over Belper since I moved here last September.

[Harry]

Off to sleep shortly...early am alarms set as you never know!

Night all...good luck all
