James175 replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I'm not usually one to complain, I love it hot. But it doesn't feel great at all despite being under 30 -

I was expecting another bust in Kent but the humidity and these beauts suggest we may be in with a shout -

I thought that looked a bit rotational. Here's hoping you're right! -

Can see lightning in the distance from Gravesend now. Praying the north Kent done doesn't go up -

Not so sure it's a seagull, that looks like it leaves a trail and we are currently in Perseid meteor shower season -

What are the chances of one of those blobs becoming electrified over the Gravesend area? Majority of the action appears to be heading west of Medway from what I can see -

Buzzing for the night ahead. I should know by now not to get my hopes up but it's looking increasingly promising by the hour -

Update no 2, cell has passed and our site manager is currently trying to prize the gate open with a crowbar. Will see if I can grab a pic of the damage on my way out at 5. That's if I can get out lol -

Update, the lighting hit the gate to our site 20 meters from where I was standing. That was a close one. Gate now won't open, hoping I'm not stuck here tonight lol -

Holy c**p lightning just struck no more than a few hundred meters from my office, whilst I was looking out of the open window. My ears are now ringing. This is the Zeus' revenge for me complaining all summer about the lack of storms in Kent -

I think this might finally be Kent's day. Temperature has shot up to the high 20s, it's dripping humidity and we've got plenty of convection. -

This is getting flipping ridiculous now. This morning's storm took a break as it went over Kent and fired up again in Essex. This one is taking a route around us. The forcefield is well and truly up -
