Just had an hour or so of reasonably heavy rain but no thunder to be heard. Rather anti-climatic.

I did catch some lightening yesterday evening over the Lake District fells though, so that has helped soften the disappointment!

Yes, I have just head a rumble of thunder in the distance. As I write, it has also gone very dark and it is absolutely chucking it down with rain here now.


 


The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.

The storm is trundling NNW just to the east of Edinburgh city. Lots of high based activity so long lasting thunder. Steady moderate rain on it's SW flank here

Starting to get distant rumbling thunder here now.  Less than an hour ago there were just two very distant towers to the SW, amazing how quickly those storms have developed and are now on the verge of our area already.

Lots of thunder, a bit of lightning and only a few spots of rain.  Now back to sunshine but black clouds all around.

Not a sausage here, Caz - yet. The wind had got up a bit so maybe something will come by. 


The radar shows a few signals near Lincoln. Promising clouds look a long way off.

Heard distant thunder in your direction Caz, but looks like this first cluster of storms has missed us.  Just a few spots of rain here so far.  More storms brewing further south as I speak though.

An overhead shower just then, with some large clouds going up over the Pennines just east of here. Feeling extremely humid now too.

Nothing yet south of Lincoln, Andy. Cloud is building now towards Waddington in the west and Horncastle to the east.


Fingers crossed.

Earlier storm in Edinburgh cleared north and we have sunny spells again. Becoming humid again with chaotic medium level sky, some vertical development to our south again

Thanks Jerry.  Looks like Ilkley might be getting hit now too.


At least 12mm from it . I had to go and put my rain gauge upright during the worst of it as it was on its side.  Brightening up now.
