TS in the Penn area of Wolverhampton
Times approx. From 16.00 to 17.30 light rain off and on. 17.30 to 18.00 torrential rain. 18.00 to 19.15 heavy rain lessening until stopped at about 19.15. Thunder heard from 16.30. Frequent T & L from 17.20 to 18.05. Four loud bangs of thunder (Rumble ain't the word!) that shook the house. Strangely when I got back home at Wednesfield 6 miles away it was bone dry. I saw on the MO RADAR that the storm developed and died of in virtually the same area. Presumably because of very little wind. When people say that TS are cracking, the storm I’ve just experienced I would call terrifying, and vicious Joe Egginton Wednesfield 175m asl |

The sun disappeared after about 17.00, but we didn't get a spot of rain, which actually rather surprised me. Until about 18.00 there were rumbles now and again from the north, though they never came particularly close. I wasn't able to get high enough up to look for distant lightning. -- Bewdley, Worcs. ~90m asl. |
