Temp here near Horsham in Sussex 7.0c Edit.. oooops think ive posted in the wrong place!

Yes seems like a long time since we had some snow around here.

Remember about 5 years ago..... Steve Murr said Snow bomb about to hit Sussex! and the next min it happened..... best moment ever!

Big crack of thunder over head here about 10 mins ago.

Anyone from Basingstoke still on here?

Oh no, good luck mate.

Sounds amazing!!!

Yep! I'm about 12 miles from there.

Tell us more what's happening?

I can hear constant rumbling for over an hour but it's far away and not getting closer. Must be a great view of the lightning up on the north downs.

Lighting popping up all over the south now!

Yep sky to my north lighting up with flashes

Yep we are both near to that storm but not near enough lol
