Storm & Convective Discussion - 16/07/15 onwards

[Mesoscale]

BAMN close strike to south!!!! 

Finally getting in on the action I see!

[Tom Jarvis]

Hopefully there will be more stuff to the east in the Sussex area

[Lauren]

Very specific storm line tonight. Great for the few under it, not for everyone else but thems the breaks.

[Daniel*]

Some angry fellows lining up with Cambridge..

[Flash bang flash bang etc]

The storm approaching is lighting up the high level clouds :-P

It's cool!

[UKSupercell]

Frequent lightning looking far-east over Watford way still....but blimey some real close strikes (3,4 sec wait before thunder) just south of me - Gerrards Cross area

[Hodgheg]

The storm to the north of london is now going crazy on blitzortung.

[Rain123]

Just had a close rumble!

[> mark]

Quite a few IC and some CG to my E now (towards W London)

[Harry]

May be the pessimist in me but I'm beginning to think the primary zone of interest is now passing. Sky flashing increasingly like a beaut to my North while clearing more here...I said to myself I'd give it until midnight, but unless something springs further south or east, that North London cluster may be the indicated MCS

Thats just north of me no lightning directly at my location atm but that stuff near Gerrards is coming for me! Second storm of the evening I have been very lucky this year!

[daveywoo1977]

Clear skies now in West Sussex. That isolated band looks to be about it

[Mesoscale]

Lightning really got going just North East of here. 

[Emz by the Thames]

Some very juicy CG in the last 15 minutes - quiet now.

[snowwonder]

Amazing lightning to South and East of me so bright it's like daytime.

[Rain123]

That is mentally elevated! I cant here any thunder, but lightning apparently is striking all around me.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Second thunderstorm . .

Next

[Rain123]

Absolutely no thunder! Oh my!

[TheToastPeople]

Just starting to see the odd horizon flicker here now

[Harry]

Flashing like a nutter to my north...lot of high level flickers which makes it difficult to tell if it's all from that cluster...occasional very bright cloud flashes on the southern side.

To mock me it continues to try and spit lol

[Daniel*]

Absolutely no thunder! Oh my!

Very comparable to 2 weeks ago in fact I think the storms are even more elevated this time as there were some cackles, faint growls but no one is reporting anything of the sort on here?

[> mark]

Welwyn Garden seems like a sweet spot!

[Biggin]

Hmnn plenty of "dry" lightning around made a mistake of just looking where the rain is on the radar.

[Rain123]

Guys, I am seriously starting to get freaked out now. There is lightning all around, but no thunder. Have a look on lightning maps.

[Mesoscale]

Just had a CG bead out right in front of me but the thunder was soo short and not as loud as I was expecting!
