Did you see the massive bolt earlier with the loud crack of thunder from your end?

I did indeed and I believe that was the strike that took the power out. Agree with you as well, the lightning looking north after the storm was incredible.

Would have been incredible. Looking south from Hykeham atm I can see the odd flash however nothing major on the radar???

Some more virga being reflected off the sunlight. Lovely.

I'm also seeing the odd flash, can only guess these are elevated from the storm we just had

What a shot, well done 

[OddSpot]

How the heck do you upload images from a Samsung mobile. None are showing what I'm uploading. None are above 200kb.

The pictures I have just took looking over Chesterfield are stunning

Aye that's still pretty impressive, especially with the colour

[Hirudine]

Well we didn't get so much as a drop of rain even, but by way of compensation we got this funky effect at sunset....
