Can't wait for some storms to break out today. I'm still not quite sure if I will get one but I'm quite confident!

Grey and dull start to the day Temp: 11.7c

Misty and dull Temp: 14.8c

I've had so many awesome storms in Bedford, there are so many sick ones but I can't decide on which one is the best. July 4th, 2015 The best storm I've ever experienced throughout 2015. Really good lightning strikes, so frequent as well. Started at around 1am so I only got around 3 hours of sleep that night. July 19th, 2017 Again, one of the best storms I've ever experienced. Really close lightning strikes, one of them struck about a couple of miles from me. Really heavy rain also, and this storm started at around 9pm and rolled through and stopped at about 2am. August 2017 This month was quite bizarre. I was on holiday in Florida and there were some wild thunderstorms, and I even spotted a funnel cloud. I went to Florida for three weeks, and out of the 21 days, I'd say 14 of the days was when we got a thunderstorm. September 1, 2017 This was one of my favourites. I was watching England vs Malta downstairs in my lounge when I heard a large crack of thunder and started filming. I got about 10 strikes on camera and most of them were anvil crawlers that lit up the sky. April 18-19, 2018 I had two thunderstorms in both of those days. One right after school, and one that lasted through the night about a couple of hours after the first storm. Usually after school I go to a rowing club, but I'm glad I didn't go because most of my friends didn't go rowing for some reason on that particular day. And the one that lasted through the night was an average thunderstorm with a lot of heavy rain afterwards. May 26-27, 2018 This is the last storm I have seen, and this is one of the most outrageous storms ever. I remember when it started around the London area, and gradually pushed its way north up to Bedford. Really bright lightning strikes too. But, when the storm hit us, this is when thing started going bonkers. I remember one close lightning strike which struck a mile from me, and another one which struck a tower in the distance. I unfortunately didn't get any of those strikes on camera, but that is going down, I guess, as one of the best storms I've ever seen. i spent 15 minutes writing that lol
