Rain has eased off - was VERY heavy for a few minutes. Lightnings appear to be by Wolverhampton now.

Only an hour ago you were petulantly bemoaning the lack of lightning.

And now a massive storm has visited your house.

Be warned.

I've put Talksport on MW on, I can hear crackling of far away lightening!


Or is it someone turning a light on within 2 miles?


Blimey this constant football talk is boring.

It's not lightning here but it has just started raining heavily, so I live in hope.

The moment I finished typing that sentence, thunder suddenly started up.

That map says it was near Worksop.

There's no lightning near me, but the wind pressure's way up.

Quite a breeze channelling through my flat now.

An air of something dark approaching...

I hear thunder!

Absolutely precipitating it down!



I was supposed to be going down t'gym, but I ain't going out in that.

All clear now. I could have gone down t'gym.

There is currently thunder. I have yet to see any lightning.

It is hailing.

There are big black clouds in the direction of Crystal Peaks.

The hail is now the size of basketballs.

We've had heavy rain on and off throughout the day, then around 3:30 there were some distant rumbles of thunder but nothing too exciting.

That map says that Penistone's just been hit.

It is currently thundersome. I have seen no lightning.

There's plenty of thunder around, right now but no sign of lightning.
