[Lauren]

Thats A bummer. How long are u stuck in the office for?

Until about 3. I hear the main stormy stuff is due late afternoon/early evening so it might be OK.

[icy toes]

Some nice rumbles in Cambridge now. No rain yet

[That GFS]

Chucked it down here, with a thunderstorm nearby

I love thunder snow too, it's a shame it is so rare here. Think it was 2003 the last thunder snow!

[Buzzard]

I did see a flew flashes from it in the end and my camera failed to capture another forked line across the sky.At least I got to see something.I see brighter sky coming now.

I saw a forked line too, quite early on in the storm, MK direction. Looked like the end of the world encroaching!

[loopydreamer]

Raining moderately now. Thunder stopped... not much to ride home about in the end

Back to the radar

[Biggin]

Had heavy rain n thunder bout  30 mins ago. More on way.

[Dami]

Just a few spots of rain here, lovely dark cloud. It just circled round me, then built up

[lassie23]

A cell heading towards me looked promising, but as usual, it crumbled to pieces and the main bit went to the SE leaving me with nothing! :cray: This keeps happening this summer, I wonder why? :cc_confused: :unknw:

[Dami]

I watch storms all the time go round me then get bigger once out of my area, happening today. *kicks storm shield*

[loopydreamer]

Sun's out now.

[lassie23]

I am not aware of a storm shield around here! My house maybe?

There is another big dark cloud forming to my west, let's see if this does the splits too!

[Biggin]

New rumbles heard.

[Polar Bear]

Oh here's one approaching from South reading....

[Biggin]

Continuous thunder now.

[Jimmyh]

torrential here in sutton few sheet ligtning and thunder 

[saint]

We had a surprise storm about half an hour ago, which was relatively brief, but continues our good run this summer!

[EWS]

After a short storm late this morning, we now have pretty constant but fairly distant rumbles of thunder every 20 seconds or so. I don't remember having had a summer of storms quite like this one. 

[Wet'n'Dry]

Storm no.18

 

This year has been very productive, I thought the skies looked a bit moody this morning but I didn't think it would come to much!! Oh how I was wrong.

[snow freak]

just had few rumbles of thunder in central London.  raining but not torrential.  had quite a lot of thunder this summer but nothing i would call majorly loud or continuous.

[Bogman]

I've come to the conclusion it's me.

 

When I'm at home they have storms where I work, and when I'm at work they have storms at home.

 

A couple of hefty looking clouds to the east and west, but seem to be going away rather than to my location.

[Ǝssex Ǝasterly]

Had a rainfall rate of 93mm/hr here half an hour ago

 

Recorded 3.6mm of rainfall haha
