The Midlands - Weather Chat

[Gord]

It's a good one, but I think it's a quick mover. Lots going on here now though!

I would agree! Seems to have moved north east! Not much rain out of it either.

[Bishop Brennan]

At last, things are starting to look a lot more interesting!

Not sure we'll get anything more. The northeast push is obvious now. But we got something! And I can still hear it!

[Summer of 95]

Off to bed now, another wasted night in the land of no weather.....

I would say wake me up when there's a storm, but I don't want to sleep for 10 years.....

[RobR]

Big hole around Stoke...rubbish!

Incredible ten fifteen minutes worth then quite spectacular! Absolute deluge and ear splitting thunder. Some very very close strikes! More like it alright.

Where in the West Midlands are you? It was close here but I'd never say it was ear splitting. Will be interesting to see where exactly it tracked.

Quickly moved away that has now. Whatever is around Gloucester should reach here. Not really a new movement but only N or nne. Even that cs England cell might be seen from here if it lasts though wouldn't be Overhead.

I can see the moon peeking through the cloud!

I'm not convinced the Gloucester stuff will. I fear it will be east of the M5 at least by the time it gets this far north.

 

I hope I'm wrong though...and I think I'll stay up a little longer to see what it does because it is causing us some interest at the very least.

[matt_in_dudley]

Still getting the odd flicker from the south...not heard any thunder though

[Costa Del Fal]

Yes lightning to the south again now.

[Adzyy]

.Not sure it's gonna hit us or not. I'd like some sleep so I hope not. Keep hearing the distant rumble though

[Gord]

Hmmm...think my last post was wrong. It's all moving so quick. It's at Worcester/Kidderminster already!

[matt_in_dudley]

I can see flashes to my south...thunder now audible! Most storms i've at once since moving here in 2013

[Costa Del Fal]

Worcester cell now becoming active rapidly. Distant thunder too.

Flashes already every 10-15 seconds again now.

[fazer76]

These bad boys are developing wherever they like lol! Local but my very noteworthy stuff. Next storms approaching I see.

[Costa Del Fal]

This next one looks even more good for us! Spectacular flashes now!

More lightning.

Make that distant strobe lightning! Thunder now.

[Costa Del Fal]

This one is special now! Almost Constant lightning now!

[fizz511]

Morning Bish!

Did I just hear a rumble then...? (Can't hear over the fan - too hot to turn it off!)

[fazer76]

Here we go again, beasts they are.

[matt_in_dudley]

Lots of lightning in this one!

[Barbmac]

Woken up by thunder, lightning and torrential rain. Appears to have eased off, so short and sharp here on the Malverns.
