I can see as far as the Wicklow Mountains of Ireland from my village Deiniolen which is 215m asl. It depends on the conditions on a milky sky red sunset. If you're on ynys Enlli on the Llyn Peninsula at night the only light you could see is of those in Dublin. Ill post some pics tomorrow!
Turning cold now - +2.8C = Snow still hanging on above around 700m here in Snowdonia. Had a few showers lunchtime but apart from that it's been a dry day! Say 'No' to the S4C cuts!
Better conditions here today - skies clearing to the North now - but will it still be possible to see the Perseids Shower again tonight? Would love to some...
Woke up to some deep rumbles of thunder here although the sky is quite bright - Saw some distant lightning from a cell that was to the North East from here last night at around midnight - although distant the lightning was very bright . Quieter now......
Could see some fantastic Cumulonimbus with anvils over Ireland from my back garden here in Deiniolen, Gwynedd, North Wales - although it has been a beautiful, warm day here with one or two towering Cumulus around.
Had fantastic thunderstorms last night that lasted from around 1am - 2.45am, with very loud thunder and downpours. Rain Gauge had 28mm rain in it this morning - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west_wales/10448356.stm
