Hi
You are able to make a reasonable comparison with the met office
rainfall radar which gives a good idea of the location of storms.
The present prediction by your Ipswitch location does not seem to fit
the bill. (no offence intended)

The 2100 met radar puts heavy rain over Cambridge as does Ipswich
Boltek.

Hi

Seems to be an increased amount of activity in the NE of England shown on
the various Boltec detection sites. Can this be confirmed by any visual
sightings as well as Mr Taverner's.

Not the NE but thunderstorm here (detected by listening and looking out
of the window) from 2035BST. Still rumbling away in the distance.

All the best

Hi
Thanks George
I agree you cannot beat good old fashioned observation, although I am
trying to perfect this damned equipment(in between the occasional glass of
the red stuff) and I do note with some enthusiasm that lightning is being
noted in your area.

Kind Regards

If I'm interpreting the display correctly there was a strike shown to the
north-west of here at 2050. Sounds (and looks) about right.

Regards
