Damn, thought I could here a rumble or two through the open window, but ti sounds like they are routing approach aircraft into Gatwick to the East over me and it was an EasyJet 737 not thunder!

 

Tut Coast, you need to go on an aircraft recognition course  --  Easyjet fly Airbus planes Ryanair are the 737's

 

Just starting to cloud over here after a glorious start to the morning.  currently 23.4C

No they don't,  Norfolk had very little last time, all around us yes, but whereas others had 25mm+, I had 4mm of rain and not a single rumble of thunder.  This time there looks a beefy shower heading my way, no spherics yet by the look of it though

Excellent site that, I use it all the time

[NorthNorfolkWeather]

First drops of rain here....

perhaps that's why storms have been in short supply, they weigh over 10kg and Ryanair will not allow them on as hand baggage

[Biggin]

Been going for bout 20-30 mins here, now seems to be back building south of us ??? http://www.raintoday.co.uk/

First drops of rain here....

We even have the sun shining, not even enough rain to register on the gauge

A couple of over head shotguns 20 mins ago,some nice cc forking going on,and reguler rumbling,rainwise we have drops the size of 50p pieces.feels like a jungle.

[Captain Shortwave]

time to go into town. It will probably go crash, bang, wallop now 

[Norfolk Sheep]

One rumble of thunder earlier, despite it looking very promising. Pretty skies though

[Methuselah]

Morning all...After an overnight min of 20.1C, I hope it goes out with a bang!

[stainesbloke]

What a difference a day makes. Grey skies here, low cloud, but dry and light winds. Have a temp of 19C currently.

[loopydreamer]

What?. . . What's going on? Thunder! Wow! Woken up to thunder! Dark cloud west of me... Is it gonna miss me or is it back building? So excited to be waking up to this. Hope us lot in the Medway towns don't just miss these storms?

Definitely something heading up the coast....mind you, might be a trawler out of Cromer

[Heisenberg]

Black in Southwark, heard some rumbles but didnt see the flashes due to the low cloud. Seems to be brightning up from the south now....Is any expected later today?

[lottiekent]

Woke to distant rumbles around half seven which came to nothing (looking at radar it passed to my north and south) 

 

Another storm moved past just now, probably 30 seconds of rain and a dozen rumbles and gone!

 

Is this the cold front moving through earlier than expected?

[NorthNorfolkWeather]

Morning all...After an overnight min of 20.1C, I hope it goes out with a bang!

ohhh, that's hot, 16.4 the minimum here @05:59!!

[Wet'n'Dry]

Massive storm passing through Brentwood just now, plenty of CG and almost continuous thunder

[snow raven]

Apart from a couple of distant rumbles here at work about 30 minutes ago, there has been nothing since.  Why oh why can't it be this time last week when I had annual leave and would have been at home enjoying the storms over there.  Bloody sods law!

[loopydreamer]

Anvil! Where are you?
