Look mate real unstable mass has only just reached coastal areas and yet to interact further inland. Give it half hour and I think you'll be surprised..

I'm no weather expert, do you think it'll make Wivenhoe???

from smaller than the size of Wales to larger than Ireland in a matter of a few hours... that's quite a lot of energy there

the lightning part seems to be heading NE but i think there'll be a few surprises if this gets up so high and has to fall/convect somewhere

 

Exciting (-:
