It wasn't that big up here in Milton Keynes. No wind, but heavy rain.

Shame there wasn't that much lightning, as what I watched was good (that passed over). The storm to the east looked more active but was just out of direct eye shot.

Estofex Level 2 issued for Friday night  for us Wouldve been a level 3 Yikes but not certain yet :)

 

http://www.estofex.org/

 

 

 

The focal point of the threat should travel northward across the English Channel and may well affect southeastern England during the 00-06 UTC time frame. Because of this uncertainty, an level 3 was not issued at this time.

Thanks Anything. I now have the app.

I was wishing for my camera earlier, but it was downstairs and I was too afraid to get it. The intercloud action was almost tropical.
