Have they run out of storm names for this season?

Some big storms around today, 2 reported supercells (one was Oxon).

Nasty squall line going through Wilts/Hants/Berks

[ChocolateFrog]

Flash flooding level rain in South Yorkshire.

Just as the tractors were being pulled out of barns as they were seemingly everywhere this morning.

[Timothy Bucktu]

We just had the loudest clap of thunder I've ever heard. Massive flash and immediate bang.
Incredible.

Passing over me now. Although rain not as heavy as further south.

Was on a call and heard a large bang. Looked out my side window and my bins were ok, but when I looked out the front all my neighbours had blown over.

[Scabutz]

Ooooohhh big clap of thunder. This is getting exciting

It's been as windy today as any of the recent named storms, pretty gusty with heavy rain at times and all day too.

[Celtic Dragon]

Very fitting as it’s still raining here!

[Seasonal Hero]

Some mad wind and rain here in North Hanfs between 6-7pm. Plus rain pretty much all day. It’s soggy as fk here.

Yes, but not confirmed whether it's a Full Nelson or a Half Nelson.
