The Midlands - Weather Chat

[Snowshine]

Now somethings starting to build near Worcester and heading Kidderminster way. Not doing much but shows that it's not over yet.

 

I think it's going to come good soon. More showers seem to be appearing.

 

Edit: Although it looks like it's dying again!

Everything which forms over the Midlands always seems to go North.

The stuff over Bournemouth is heading straight here. I'm cacking myself for it. you guys. An take it. Take it away!!

Dont get your hopes up. The storm could actually die over the Midlands and come back to life in Manchester or Leeds (up North). Its happened before.

[Adzyy]

Looks absolutely insane down there.

_Hello,

            _{Why does the midlands have the effect of reducing the potency of a rain cell, for it to then regenerate as it travels north, please?}

[Gord]

Now there is rapid development near Worcester.

 

This is our chance.

We have supercellular activity towards our far south, wind is manic out there has to be said! A warm one at that.

[Summer of 95]

Just rained heavily for all of 30 seconds.... No more thunder or lightning, yet (optimistically)

[Arctic Hare]

Absolutely hammering down here in Bewdley. Really heavy rain, battering on the windows. No thunder at all, though.

 

Edit: eased right off now, almost stopped. That didn't last long!

Quite fed up at how the SE constantly manages something and rapidly developed storms even though their risk should have been low

IMO. Thy would never happen here. Any showers here are lasting about 5 mins before dying.

That storm may break in two, causing some of us fellow Midlanders to miss out on what seemed to be heading directly towards us.

Gone quiet out there now the lower mid level showery cloud seems to have cleared for now,just the high cloud currently.

So it's got about 15 miles to develop into something!

 

Well they've managed to die off between Worcestershire and here before...why not the opposite?

[anvilcrawler]

Just hoping it hits Rugby,all me gear is set up ready or is it a case of head to Northamptonshire?

[Adzyy]

That one near London is heading West. Either one of those storms are bound to hit us. 6.30am wake up call doesn't fill me with joy now.

[fazer76]

This could be a classic, storms migrating northwards and expanding. Wind almost constant?

[Costa Del Fal]

Ready to go to bed soon I think. Can't be bothered to wait for a few showers which clearly don't want to electrify over the Midlands.

[Arctic Hare]

Ooh, a flash! Out of the corner of my eye, so can't be more precise than that. No thunder (that I heard) though.

 

Edit: heh, now a distant rumble. Too long after the flash to be directly associated, though.

[Costa Del Fal]

Finally a couple of Flashes here now. Spoke Too Soon but still have my doubts on the overall picture.

[smethwickgg102]

Just heard a rumble in the distance dog not impressed, will it or won't it, another hour or so and I'm sure we'll find out.... typical though back home today and Grays (work) is getting hammered.

[Adzyy]

I can hear rumbles now.

[SalopWatcher]

My storm chase is over, have come home.. Nothing on the radar and Mabey not till the later hours. Sleep with windows open and pray for best.

[Gord]

Seems to be a storm developing and heading this way.

[fazer76]

Lightning and thunder becoming more frequent.

[kar999]

Plenty of CG directly to my south probably Kidderminster. 1 to 2 flashes a minute...

[smethwickgg102]

Flashes to my east

[Costa Del Fal]

Nice Flash to my North then.
