North West Regional Discussion March 2022 onwards

[Had Worse]

Back in Hadfield now and I can see the tops of the Preston and Liverpool storms.

[Miamay]

Heavy rain here in Liverpool

[Weather-history]

Getting that "nothing here" feeling.  Look as though most of any activity is up the western side of the region. 

The stuff coming across the Midlands doesn't seem to want to develop further 

[Frost HoIIow]

Sat outside a shop at Crown point in Denton waiting for my better half and her sister and I'm cooking with the sun beating down. As I look west I can see the storms in the far distance...some towering cumulonimbus clouds.

Going dark looking SW'wards where the Congleton cell is developing, it'll likely miss here by a few miles but it's a good early sign.

[MikeUpjohn]

In Macclesfield and ready to head out in the car when it goes off!

Might track west of me or curve for a direct  hit.

First strike from the cell now recorded near to Bollington.

Interesting how the cells suddenly developed as soon they enter Cheshire. 

[Had Worse]

Heard the rumble. 

Please come closer.

[Miamay]

We are having the odd rumble of thunder

[Ashley1998]

Second lot of thunder here now large heavy raindrops 

[Had Worse]

Distant thunder from that.

[Had Worse]

Its brushed me on the western flank.

A few rumbles, one glimpse of ic lightning and its gone quiet.

[weatherobsuk]

Took a quick drive to the top end of Disley in the hope of seeing a few lightning strikes but typically the cell decided to die-off just as I found a place to park, but as soon as I got back home the showers have decided to re-gather around Buxton so there's still some hope.

[severe snowstorm]

A couple of torrential showers here and some nice cloudscapes, but no lightning or thunder.

Torrential rain. My sky has gone off

[Had Worse]

Serious rainfall in some areas to the North

[Miamay]

Lashing down here and the wind is getting up

[Hoghtonwhite]

My new garden has just been washed away in the space of 10 minutes. 

[Had Worse]

@SNOW_JOKE, shower received thanks.

Did you forget the thunder?

There must be a storm-shield up in the High Peak today with plenty of thundery showers around but aside from a few audible rumbles it's been a bit of a quiet day, on the positive side at least the garden doesn't need watering.

Not here in Crewe they haven't, been dry all afternoon bar 1-2 spots of rain.
