Fantastic Thunderstorm just moving away here in East Leeds. Overhead Lightning, localised flooding and I saw a very strange lightning strike. Just a bright blue, extremley loud explosion infront of me as I was driving through Rothwell on the A639. Similar to elecrtical lines arking but at low down in the sky. Edit: It seems like it's similar to what happened round here in 2004. Torrrential rain for over an hour. Lots of flooding. Central Wakefield is getting a right drenching with severe flooding.
