nothing to see or hear around here right now, not really looking likely i dont think

Your reverse psychology is working a treat as we have real deep distant rumbles now

Meanwhile in C.S. England it is unbelievably still. Horribly sticky and still hot. Never mind a storm,I'll settle for a bit of rain

Even the same down here on the coast. Gone really still and humid.

Notice on the radar there's a lot of rain but not a lot of lightning being picked up

[sparky1972]

storm incomming, just seen first flash of lightening

[TJS1998Tom]

I have a feeling though out of no where we could end up having 10-20 strikes at once

Could you put your location in your profile, please?  It saves us having to guess where "here" is!

[TJS1998Tom]

WOW, That was so loud! I missed the flash on camera but wow that thunder was amazing, I had a feeling we would get strikes out of no where aha

Looks like the Bishop Auckland area is in line for a torrential shower

[Lincs Observation]

Distant rumbles spots of rain here heading to me from the Sleaford area all very still and warm

A lightning strike on real time lightning shows one right by my house as well, very close indeed

[TJS1998Tom]

Its nice and dark now which is perfect for lightning c:

Those cells have really intensified in the last few moments.

Same out here. If the storm that passed through 'W Essex earlier had been a few miles further South East I'd have taken a direct hit but alas another sleepless night lies ahead

That sounds very American! Stay safe in Lincs if true!

[Arnie Pie]

Didn`t need a crystal ball to see what was going to happen today......"30 miles to the East"

Oh well at least we`ve had a cracking Sunset

[Lincs Observation]

Flashes in the distance to my south west sitting on my decking watching it all kick off

[TJS1998Tom]

This isn't even the main storm, yet its already amazing

That is beautiful. Thankfully you can't see the scenery it's setting over  

[OddSpot]

Viewing out of our window, I can see the cloud tops lighting up now and again from the Newark storm
