    Weather appreciation post here… 

    I’m on day 8 of covid and not really getting much better. I’m surprised how this is affecting me mentally. I feel quite down and I don’t usually get down about much. Anyway, got up this morning and stood in the kitchen gazing out the window at the rain… and then there was the closest lightning strike I have ever seen! It was just across the road, partly obscured by trees but there was the brightest white flash that started as a ball and just elongated and the sound of fizzing and crackling and of course accompanied by the loudest of bangs. If I wasn’t poorly I would’ve absolutely pooped myself but I just stood amazed at what I’d just seen! This immediately lifted me out of the covid cloud and made me feel myself again 🙂 I haven’t so much as looked at the weather for the past week so it was a complete (and wonderful) surprise! Thank you weather gods! 

    hope you feel better soon!

    What on earth! Full blown thunderstorm here in Rushden, travelling from the direction of Bedford! A real goodun as well, most unexpected and at this time of the morning lol. Enjoy all.

    and it came from no where! I always have a nose on the radar to see if there was a chance of rain for the school run and there was some bog standard blue returns coming my way. Then i thought i saw a  flash and boom. best storm i've had all year.

  4. wow. I can still remember being woken up by my Dad telling me school was closed. I never heard any of it and the only thing different was the fact my window was covered in muck.  A friends dad who worked as a fireman rung to say it was too dangerous to go out with falling tiles and trees. We were quite lucky as it goes - we lost too plastic plant holders outside that, strangely, had left the actual soil and plants unharmed where they had once stood. We never found the pots.

    Our school fared worst, as our gym roof had fallen in. 

    We lived 5 miles inland from the sea, and the day before had sat in the car eating fish and chips by the front, i can always remember how odd the clouds looked, like straight lines heading towards us. It was this event that piqued my love of clouds and storms.

    If you was in the desert gasping, it would have been a god send... if you was floating in flood waters it would have been the devils work...but  gorgeous here today not a cloud in the sky since fog cleared couple of spits and spots yesterday but nothing to write home about 🙂

    Could contain:

    It was straight out of a comedy. But after 40c i don't mind a splash of rain, even without a coat. It wasn't cold either. 🙂
