Will storm

Flash of lightning with loud thunder here, rain is torrential. Wasn't expecting this :/

Was in an exam at uni, very close lightning, thunder after 2 seconds gap. Around 3pm not sure of exact time. Certainly made everyone jump.

Storm that came through was nasty, frequent lightning and strong winds which I didn't expect. The rain also caused localised flooding :S

Switzerland is also having problems with the snow. Zermatt was cut off a couple of days ago by an avalanche. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/snowandski/8996826/British-skiers-stranded-in-Zermatt.html

Fantastic thunderstorm just went through here Really surprised

Large earthquake swarm in Katla Caldera, http://en.vedur.is/e.../myrdalsjokull/

Cam in Amsterdam showing lightning and great thunder http://www.terena.org/webcam/

12 earthquakes above mag4 with greatly varying depths in the past 5 hours in the Ethiopia-Eritrea region. Possible volcanic activity? http://www.emsc-csem.org/#2

Infrared satellite from 8:45 UTC shows that the plume has stretched right over Argentina nearly to the South Atlantic http://nwstatic.co.uk/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif http://www.ghcc.msfc.nasa.gov/GOES/goeseastfullir.html

The earthquakes run sw from the volcano, :S http://en.vedur.is/earthquakes-and-volcanism/earthquakes/

Depth was only at 1km so no wonder the damage was more severe than you would expect with a mag 5.3. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1386019/Spain-earthquake-6-killed-5-3-quake-strikes-Lorca.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

Short Video of the Tsunami hitting California at 0.29 seconds :/ http://www.accuweather.com/video/64448107001/tsunami-impacts-on-the-us.asp

We had 2 small snow showers today around 2:15pm which gave a dusting, very happy

Another vid of the eruption at Merapi today. The plume looks like something out of a film at the end http://forum.netweather.tv/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif

Video of Sheveluch volcano or Klyuchevskaya Sopka volcano here Looks like an huge eruption :S

The volcano has a small plume this morning :/ http://live.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-hvolsvelli/

A great storm last night with frequent lightning at one stage. I witnessed over 200 strikes as the storm rolled on for 2 and a bit hours. The pictures include a partial 120° Parhelia , some storm clouds brewing yesterday afternoon (5th) and some lightning I captured as the storm was fading to the east. There was a storm a bit l8er but I was too tired to view it. I have nearly all my GCSE exams in the coming week which will be fun :/ The storm was a break from revision, but I think it was worth it The video includes lightning from the beginning of the night onwards.

Fantastic view of the ash plume this morning from the vodafone cam. It's huge :0 http://www.vodafone.is/eldgos Edit: It's calming down a bit now

Back in shot for the time being http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-valahnjuk/

Looks like activity is ramping up at the volcano according to the tremor graphs here: http://hraun.vedur.is/ja/Katla2009/stodvaplott.html

The webcam shows the ash cloud really thick and now black with hardly any white in the plume. http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-thorolfsfelli/

Bigget plume of the day so far at the moment :/ http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-thorolfsfelli/

You can see it on this webcam too, http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-thorolfsfelli/

It's exploding big time again on the vodafone webcam !!!!!! http://www.vodafone.is/eldgos
