Lots of strikes to the west of here, but nothing coming this way yet

Guys, are there any really good weather station sites where you can monitor thunderstorms and where their heading?

I'm on a night shift tonight. Should be fun.

Just about to ask this myself. Trying to find a better lightning strike tracker.

But i was in Canada last summer and we got some really hot, humid weather...hit about 38c in the day but late evening i was sat outside my brothers house having a cig and what a lightening and thunderstorm turned up...was pure awesomeness.

love the way you say that....

Thunderstorm turned up... like it was a mate...

made me chortle good way of describing it.

It's 36 here in Belgie today and my gusset can't handle the heat hoping for a nice T-storm to turn up tomorrow although not when I'm driving back from Luxemburg.

good storm over Loughborough at the moment.

Haven't heard any storms here yet, although I just took the dog for a walk and the air was very still and close. Hope we get a good storm though - not only awesome to watch but makes the air feel much fresher.

im hoping for a good few storms tomorrow! they keep changing the weather forecasts!

Rozzy85 · 22 Jul 2013 at 21:15

Hope something happens here on the southern Northants/Oxfordshire boarder just to clear the air. Muggy as hell this evening.

EDIT: Never mind, just heard a rumble of thunder.

A few bits of thunder and lightening here and its just hammered it down with rain. Seems like that's the end of it already.

Conscript · 22 Jul 2013 at 21:19

Think I spoke too soon....I'm sure I just heard a crack of thunder.

nothing in shropshire yet

physichull · 22 Jul 2013 at 21:30

Nothing in Manchester area. Maybe tomorrow. I do love a good summer thunderstorm. The garden could do with the rain though.
