Frequent lightning and forks seen clearly towards the North now. Lovely pink colour to the strikes as well!

Good to see some action for you guys further south! Been a very promising year so far! 

 

Hopefully a sign of more to come! :)

Most lightning is now east of my location. Haven't seen so much lightning in years.

Flash bangs every 15-30 seconds here now. Rain coming down hard. Whoops! That was a loud one.

The storm that moved through Southampton about 2 hours ago is now showing signs of reigniting over the channel?!

 

Surely the Channel isn't a breeding ground for France and not the UK!

Absolutely hammering it down with rain now, 20p sized droplets, can't believe there is no thunder so far with it, unless it's still building  :wallbash:

 

20 miles west lightening and thunder but little rain

Second storm rattling through. Some faint infrequent flashes way to our north again, cannot believe how this has turned out.

Loud metallic long rumbling thunder now in MK, just as the rain is easing off. I bet this sodding storm gets stronger as it moves away to my south  :wallbash:

Joke this. Bloody loads of lightning to my south-west....some huge flashes but so distant I can't hear the thunder and partially hidden by the big ash trees across the road....if I'd have known reading and the surrey area would have this much lightning, I'd have left 2 hours ago and found a high spot to watch.

Wow we lost power in Aylesbury for 5 mins just now, I can see quite a few flashes coming down from MK way now, it;s not too far from arriving here.

 

EDIT just had a massive gust of wind.

Definitely thundering well to the east of MK now, long loud rumbles and very frequent elevated lightning. Looks to be moving away as I suspected it was doing.  :wallbash:

 

Oh appears to be getting closer, rain has stopped and the wind has completely changed direction from a NW to a SE flow, thunder getting louder and lightning brighter  :cc_confused:
