Raining now. Lightning quite infrequent but occasionally very bright

[matt111]

Seems to be picking up again here with more thunder again now

[TropicThunder]

Just back from the waterfront in Southampton, some stunning lightning both CGs and crawlers across the sky, although not as frequent as other events. Thunder still rumbling away occasionally.

Certainly no bust here!

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Waaaah the storm has slid past my West and has gone Stockbridge way. Not much thunder either as it's all high up/far away. It woke me up then sodded off!!

[matt111]

This was the loudest I heard it tonight. I have got some other videos but not sure they've come out that well but I'll have a proper look tomorrow.

Can see very occasional bright lightning to my SE, what a pleasant surprise.

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Oh mother f er!!! The fire alarm just went off in the same room as me. I nearly pooed myself!! Must have been the lightning set it off somehow. It's only a battery one though. Calm my beating heart ... Caaalm ...

Fantastic night with good friends watching Elevated Storms with great Cgs. Targeted an area east of the mush on the WNW Axis of turning Storms North of Chichester with great 360 degree views. Only got rained on briefly twice and these are off the back of the Camera for now but will be much better when edited and cleaned up. Just rolled in at 4am to Essex to bed. Not even scratched the surface with the amount of Cgs we got tonight.

Second push of instability showing its hand around here!

[Stormhog]

Now getting going in the SE, just as predicted. 
A lot of distant flashing and rumbling to my WSW from Hailsham.

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Look at that radar! There's a train of storms lol!! No sleep for the rest of the night ... That'll get me for complaining earlier lol.

[tomp456]

heavy rain, loud thunder, and lightning

 get in there my son. 

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Andy Bown]

Lightning frequency and closeness of thunder increasing to the E/SE of Warminster now. Perhaps Salisbury Plain is aiding developments too. 

[Monkeypants]

[Zak M]
