Wish I could see the development, it's all grey skies here at the moment, there's a slightly darker grey to my west, but that's all I can see.

Melton about to get a taste of the action by the looks.

Thunder getting more frequent and longer here - looks kind of a bit yellow outside, very strange.

hmmm, it's still very much a 50/50 chance of it reaching here, hope your right Andrew. Seems to be breaking down once it hits Melton. But anything we do get will be a bonus considering the impressive show we witnessed last night.

I think we're about to get hammered! Incredibly loud thunder and lots of lighting with spots of rain just starting.

24mm in the gauge after I emptied out 5mm from the first storm so 29mm all up. Now up to 51.8mm in total (since last night). Only 4mm off the monthly average and it's only day 1. Brief lull now as the area of storms has moved away. It's absolutely dark as guts here, more development to the NW looks impressive.
