Cracking storm ~ 5.30 - 6.30 over North Swindon today.
Good old fashioned fork lightning and almost immediate tremendous thunder not seen this for a few years. Torrential rain of course.
All stopped by ~ 7pm.
I had one or two "Hal" moments........i.e on Malcolm in Middle Hal does the odd high pitched scream when scared........maybe you have got to have watched it a lot to know what i mean.
