Last night on a quiz show (Eggheads) the question was asked, 'What is
an anvil crawler?

During my 30 years plus working for the Met Office, I have never heard
'Anvil Crawler' before. Just reading about it now and it's an American
term to describe lightning forks travelling across the underside of
the thundercloud. Has anybody in UK ever heard this term mentioned?

New one on me.

I'm seriously considering a sticker for my car's back window
that reads "I brake for tailgating bampots".
