Slight TS went through 14Z only put down 1mm and about three rumbles,
but cloud formations gorgeous.


Not noticed up here. Very warm and SWMBO's said it was very muggy this
moring. Just been out myself and it's nice and warm gentle breeze but
not oppresive.

Remembers she did mention that Warcop was being noisy this morning but
that was well before 1400. Distant (approx 15miles) big bombs and
artillary don't sound like distant thunder though.


Apart from the occasional high-level storms I've experienced in Rushden -
never anywhere else. Innocuous-looking cloud cover, not dark at all, no
rain, but I hear a distant bump. Gradually, they become more frequent but
still just very faint bumps, no rumbles. Looking overhead, I see a
flickering in the cloud as though it's backlit by many dodgy fluorescent
tubes. Strange that what could be classified as a severe thunderstorm -
going by the frequency of the lightning, which is continuous - passes
unnoticed by most people.
