A few loud rumbles just now including one that shook the house. Looks like the rain weakened a bit before reaching here so didn't end up as heavy as i thought it would be. Only 0.4mm so far.

Just started to get the odd rumble here! Doesn't look like many are going to miss out on this one.

We had two like that last week from our front garden nest box, very sweet little things.

 

Now that it's getting light, it's harder to see the flashes, but instead the cloud structure is becoming apparent and WOW! Still distant lightning though, no thunder (just birds).

New little embedded intense cell has popped up SW of here. Good job I renewed my radar subscription yesterday! Getting sporadic lightning from that now and can see very disturbed mid level cloud in the early dawn light.

Just as I was about to try and sleep I heard a sudden louder rumble. Looks like it was a bit lonely now as most of the activities moved east.

Here's hoping it's going to be a good year for the storms.

As quick as it arrived, as quick as it left Newbury.. lots of big rumbles and was expecting more but it was over in a flash.:D :drinks:Garden got a great soaking though.. so pleased I didn't decide to water it yesterday. 

Ps anyone else struggle to sleep last night.. just wondered if it was too hot or me from drinking too much wine..

I am so happy, was thinking I was cursed never to see an overhead storm again, but last night put an end to that in style.

Constant thunder and lightning & very heavy rain, reminded me of how storms used to be 10+ years ago.

Everyone around here must be as happy as I am.

We have had storms around Weston, and only last week a storm passed over the town centre (knocking my mates satellite out) but I was at work in Nailsea and saw nothing. Seen cracking storms in the distance over the Mendips and  further East, or over Wales, but finally had one pass right over.

Bring on the rest of Summer!
