I was quite selfish to analyse that as a point of interest because I can get a vantage point over Dundry, I would prefer if something formed near Winchester.

Don't be. It's all c-c lightning.

Well that's number 3 this year in Wantage, looks like a home grown affair, short., but sweet. But more generally I think we could be in for an interesting weekend!

Explosive developments in SE London.

Constant sheet lightning and deep booming thunder

Very few forks and little in the way of overhead thunder,rather more constant booming from high in the sky.

Hail and torrents of convective rainfall
