 Bristawl Si Indeed. Had some good flashes of lightning and loud thunder though. Sun creeping out again now.

Jeez it looks like another thundery batch is forming around Bridport and pulsing NE! This would have been awesome at night, however then you don’t see the cloud formations!

Nice 'sferics overhead just now.

Not hear a decent crack of thunder in a while.

Been staring out the windows all day given there is a rare tornado threat for our area, but not seen anything twisty and turny so far.

The most active storm so far passing just over the edge of Salisbury Plain. Frequent lightning, thunder and swirling wind. 
 

Lol as I pressed to complete the post there was a CG and shotgun thunder!

It looks like yet another batch is forming near Bridport! What is it with that area causing the storms to develop?

 Andy Bown A couple of bands of intense rainfall across Dorset, I'm patiently waiting for ours!

All the thunderous activity is WAY to our north.

A bit of the squall line is just coming through now. 

Must be a tree down in the lane, as a couple of cars have doubled back and are going out the other way.

Just out walking the dog, it’s pretty wild out here. Not sure we’ll be out long. 
 

The low level cloud are screaming along.

Wind gust at Hurst Castle 75.1mph, still gusting around here.

45mph here, and bearing in mind our location, that's a high!

Absolute shocker of a day here. It’s hardly stopped raining since the start of the day. 2 batches of thundery activity in the past 24 hours. 

I do wonder with the amount of rain that’s fallen if a yellow warning could have been issued. Causing issues on the railways and doubtless on the roads too.
