Whhhheeeeeyyyyyyyy, big flash to my east, loud thunder as I type. This is as good as some of the SE storms I enjoyed in Crowthorne. Rainfall rate 26.4 mm/h at one stage. Rainfall from storm now 5.1 mm, so nothing special in that regard. But the lightning display has been magic. One thing about living on Dartmoor is that it is normally dead quiet so when you get a storm you hear everything, from the slightest murmur to all the deep rumbles.

Still dry here at 2040Z, Will. If it doesn't fizzle it will be the first TS over my way since god knows when. Snow has been more common in the past 12 months and that's saying something ! Jon.

Still raining hard at 6.9 mm/h with the storm total now up to 6.9 mm. Bar 1008.4 hPa and steady so trough now through. Lights just flickered for some reason as distant lightning flashed, thunder now murmuring. Well that was fun :-) Will. -- " Visit Haytor meteorological office at http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk/Hayt...met_office.htm " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A COL BH site in East Dartmoor at Haytor, Devon 310m asl (1017 feet). mailto: www: http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk DISCLAIMER - All views and opinions expressed by myself are personal and do not necessarily represent those of my employer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
