quite a bit of lightning her now  more to come hopefully

[Hirudine]

I got some footage on my camera phone! Just waiting for it to upload to Youtube. That was brilliant! Still going but not as intense.

[P-M]

London is alive!

[Andy Bown]

Lol to all those who were bemoaning there being hardly anything on the radar at 21.30!

[Cheshire Freeze]

Beauty of an update from EURO4!! 

 

That pretty much puts the nail in the coffin for this side of the Pennines, just as I thought. Gutted.

[matt_in_dudley]

Im sure i can hear thunder...may be wrong mind you! The wind is howling too!

[Odd Spot]

I repeat lol. Brumcam showing lots

Might be my lot for the night....amazing lightning, mostly strobe IC but occasional awe inspiring CGs. Little disappointed there was no earth shattering thunder, but I can go to sleep tonight a happy moosch!!! Will evaluate footage over the weekend and post some of it....might need some training using my camcorder.

You people further north are in for a serious treat

[Karl83]

I'm going to Swindon is that a good idea?

[richep]

Watching constant lightning from here. Im under clear skies. Good spectacle though none the less

[Jordan Naylor]

You can see the Bournemouth storm on sat24's latest update, it absolutely explodes on the latest picture. What a monster. Nothing in the NW. Can see distant flashing over the coast of Blackpool. Nothing inland and only hear a faint rumble of the biggest strikes.

[keithm]

bournemouth storm,

 

it came as fast as it went,lasting about 45 mins.

 

3 or 4 decent cracks of thunder with the same 3 or 4 decent lightning flashes,

 

3 or 4 mins of moderate hail,

 

very disappointing really,but probably the best we have had in 7 years so can't complain,good luck to all waiting for something.

 

dramatically over hyped and reported on.

seeing 2 locations of lightning to the south west (Kidderminster) and to the north west (Telford) , spectacular . Distant thunder now

[Costa Del Fal]

Good thunder and lightning here now.

[Harry]

Oh hello...judging by the radar (unless anaprop) there might be more forming behind this mass....fingers crossed!!

[SnowJoke]

Can see huge flashes of lightning now to the south and southeast of MK, whole sky is lighting up. Hope it heads this way

Just seen about 3 simultaneous C-G strikes there!

[Grazy2266]

Can now see lightning, in the southeast, south and southwest from here

[sconetone]

Nice little CG there on the Brumcam

[A.J]

I don't honestly know what that Bournemouth/Wiltshire cell is doing! It's going crazy.

 

Can anyone around Bristol see lightning, and if so how frequent is it?

It's to my south (about 30 miles now) Scott, and it's kicking out lightning like its on amphetamines!....there's another closer (but considerably weaker) storm to my SW that's throwing out lightning every 20-30 seconds or so

[Dan the Man]

The loaded gun has just started to fire here. Long elongated rumbles.

[Odd Spot]

Some classic CG's on the Brumcam. Seem slow mo as well

[Hodgheg]

Here come more cells off of brighton! 

[weirpig]

constant lightning now  at least ive seen something from this storm

[Andy Bown]

Lots of lightning in the anvil of this storm system which I judge by radar to be pretty much over my location ; there are some flashes still pretty much overhead alongside frequent to the SE as it begins to batter Salisbury.
