ChannelThunder I can remember on this day in 1990, temps were around 80f in the South East. I was out sunbathing with my mates -

Eagle Eye If it helps at all: I use a 28mm lens, ISO400, f8-f11, 10s exposures if it's a busy storm. Then I stack the exposures during post-processing. -

When the straight line wind hits...time to take cover. Came in very strong at Seaford last night and put an end to any photography, we just made it to the car before the lashing rain hit. My friend couldn't drive for the first few minutes and cars were pulling over. -

Sad isn't it? Everybody walks around with a camera in their pocket these days (well, maybe not me, I don't own a "smart" phone), but the moment you pull out a proper camera, everybody stares (mostly with suspicion). -

Two strikes at Selsey just showed up on Blitzortung, then vanished again. (they might be back, that often happens.) -

June 1994 was when I took my first ever lightning pic. This was looking East from Wormley, Herts: (When I can find the neg I'll be able to restore this) -

Rain hitting now. It's been a long time since I saw the sky this dark during the day. Cloud heights are 10K plus. -

Went down to Pevensey Bay and was precisely placed. Frequent IC lightning and torrential rain. Most of the lightning was hidden but still made for some nice pics as the storm rolled in. Lovely structure. -

Takes me back to the late 80's - early '90s when we'd all sit out in a field at night, drinking cheap cider and watching some spectacular storms. This was in Herts, I seem to remember quite a few storms coming in from the NE around that period of time. -

cells forming in a line and heading NW, I never pay attention to models this close in, just watch satellite and sferics. -

Well, I got my little storm trundling over the Channel after all :) First noticed it just on the French coast and went out to meet it at Pevensey Bay. Nothing too spectacular, but first one this year. -

Some fairly close strikes this morning here in Hailsham. Thunder gave me a start as it's the time of year when I generally stop checking the radar for storms.
