  1. Finally managed to get back online after a power surge during Tuesday's storm, managed to wipe out my phone line and some rather expensive electrical gadgets! I got about 10mins of this storm on my phone, it's in HD but was a bit of a rush job - so excuse me for that! and for the dog who you might hear in the background, he won't be appearing on storm chasers any time soon :-)

    If you don't fancy watching it all, T&L peaks around 6-8 mins and about 4:45 I nearly dropped the phone with a rather unexpected rumble!

    How long did that video take to upload. I've been trying to do mine since yesterday and it's taking FOREVER.

    Good video.

  2. Longest - August of 1997. Was an MCS that kicked off at about 6pm and kept going strongly all night and then died at around 7am the next morning. Fantastic light show, it was too loud to sleep and we all stayed up all night watching it. Several houses nearby were hit.

    Shortest - A tie between Beijing (July 2006) and Thailand (November 1999). Both extremely potent yet short storms lasting around 2 minutes with torrential rain constant flashes and thunder and disappeared as quickly as it appeared.

  3. Woohoo! that's more like it. 2 VERY close strikes and lots of other strikes with incredibly loud thunder, lot's of thunder and torrential rain.

    haven't seen stuff like this in years.

    I haven't got a you tube account and don't really want to start one, but I'm happy to share the video i just captured with you all if anyone would be so kind as to put it up on their account and I'll send you the video.
