I don't know about the Brummies but it has landed here in Bedfordshire.

[Tilly2]

It certainly has, Ubasses.

Is it heading to London?

We had a hail storm last Saturday.

[Tilly2]

Here's another map.

And our power has gone off.

[Tilly2]

Oh dear, I'd better get dinner on!

[ToraToraTora]

nothing a copper tie won't solve.

[Tilly2]

I think it might miss London, Tigger. Travelling E.N.E., as far as I can see.

[ubasses]

We had ours earlier to eat in the garden, which was in bright sunshine, half way through we had to grab everything and run back inside.

[tiggerblue10]

That's a shame. I was looking forward to a light show and rumble.

We had ours yesterday afternoon - outskirts of Oldham- and it flooded a local town centre.

Arh we’ve missed het through that damned Fog on the Tyne, I love a good thunder storm ;)

[Tilly2]

It's gone now and it's really freshened up. Lovely.

[roopower]

We've had three minor storms today, and in the last two days. A bit of thunder and lightening and torrential rain. I don't think the gardens need it any more!

19.25: 3T, was that your attempt at brummie for a cup of tea?

N.W. Lancashire---Last night it was bad with flash floods ,thunder and lightening. Started again about an hour ago .TV keeps freezing and going off.

[tonyav]

Not just the Brummies, melv. It's passed over now, many floods though.

[Bobbisox1]

I’m sad if anyone’s suffered flooding

[roopower]

Spoke too soon, an hour and a half of it last night!
