Schveningen cam could be a good one very soon!! Now that is an MCS over there.

That T Wells storm.... Lighting galore and getting closer to me! 

Gonna try grab pics. 

[Rain123]

Actually, I'm not sure I did - I didn't hear a rumble, and the people over the road are moving their car about, so the flash could've been their headlights.

[Rain123]

Ka-boom!!!

[Andrew snow hope]

Another flash here in Yateley - fingers crossed there is more. Thunder getting a bit closer! 

[Harry]

Very bright flash and rumble just then...couldn't tell from which direction though

Wow, just like August last year (I was nr Zaltbommel) - 6hrs of serious storm action from large marble size hail, torrential rain and constant lightning. I think the whole thing stretched from N France into Germany!

Wow - it's chucking it down! Don't think it's hail though.

Wow! just got it loaded in time for a beauty!

[SenlacJack]

Apologies for being slightly off topic ( whilst still watching the distant lightning outside ), can anyone advise this technophobe how I can post photo's directly from my smartphone to this or any other NW forum please ?

Hmm, is our little friend moving to the right? Seems to be coming inland now. We have GOT to train our channel storms better, look how easy it is!

just seen some cyclists making their way along the sea front in the lightning - Excellent streaming webcam video

google translate is funny;

"..The streaming video ensures that way for you to be present from home, from your computer, even on the beach, without you having to do the door off."

this is amazing to watch also: http://www.lightningmaps.org/?lang=en#y=50.914;x=-2.3114;z=7;t=3;m=sat;r=0;s=201;o=0;b=0.00;n=0;d=2;dl=2;dc=0;
