Missing us going down the valley to the east. The sky is a wonderful orange. I was hoping it would put my neighbours bonfire out so I could cool my room down.

The thunder and lightning scared the shit out of me.

a storm dropped by my house tonight as well.. no orange sky though.. more of a green

We've had thunderstorms here virtually everyday for over a month now. I'm actually suprised that we don't have more power outages being the Lightning capitol of the US (2nd in the world to the west coast of Africa).

Tonight it stopped just prior to sunset and the clouds were ablaze in a bright rose hue. Very pretty

[The PIT]

More lightning overnight but no rain and nothing special. No rain shown on the met office radar near us so it's starts raining heavily from a lightly clouded sky. It's now clouded up and the rains almost stopped. Nothing as weird as weather. Right now it's like a sauna at work.
More storms are forecast so we may get an interesting one later.

The storm TP mentioned last evening was quite impressive here in NW leicestershire - some lightning and a lot of noisy hail. I unplugged the PC & cable modem j.i.c.. The one around midnight-1am was the most intense I have ever witnessed! I unplugged everything in the house. It was like the storm was circling overhead. House alarms & car alarms going off all over the place. Amazingly my 4-yr old, who had been complaining about the heat, slept through the whole thing!

Its now 26 degrees in my computer room, and I'm very glad my car has a/c for my trip to Aston Villa this pm!!

I hear that in Milton Keens last night the lightening set off about 15 house fires, Maybe the weather has had enought of that place as well as everyone else.

-Aston Villa there is never thunder - lightening - fireworks there [apart from the away team maybe]

[DentyCracker]

Here in the haunt of Jack the Ripper it was nice and hot. 33C woohoo. I suspect it will be a lot cooler in Blackpool on Friday or tomorrow in Birmingham.

[Fat Tone]

Say ahh!

[The PIT]

Nothing of interest happening here.

We had a couple of funnel clouds, and one full fledged tornado touch down in my area yesterday (ok, the tornado was about 55km away, but still...). Strange though, since we only had dark grey skies yesterday, while last friday with no really nasty weather, the sky was the deepest darkest green I've ever seen. It was downright spooky.
