I may be going insane but I swear I just heard two or three rumbles coming from sea direction in bexhill. Upset the gulls. Going down to look and photograph

Not from the sea, NNE of us! Getting slowly louder, Convergence line maybe slipping southwards?

Can hear non-stop thunder with strikes 30km away here in Hastings. If this reaches us it could be epic. Formed over land not sea, usually dies out near us when over sea.

Camera at the ready, will pop out shortly to Bottle Alley.

Close again but no cigar

*pops out door* ah I see it now over hastings way

[Eagle Eye]

Not sure how we're going to get out of this. 

[Harry]

Still a lot of signs of convection over London way right now 

[Liam Burge]

Can I ask if an Amber "Excessive Heat" warning has ever been issued before? I've never seen one.

[Eagle Eye]

Got a nice structure to it.

I’m gutted I didn’t even realise it was thundering. Had the idiots next door using their angle grinder

From bexhill seafront looking in towards the north east of town and towards hastings 

[carinthian]

Webcam de Wimereux, Boulogne on the French side picks up the storm cloud looking towards Blighty. Again not sure how to link this camera ? Great picture though 1

Yeah like I thought, it was introduced just now for this heatwave I'm guessing:
