I was awoken at 1.00am this morning by a huge hail storm! It is very rarely that i'm awoken but this was loud! Hail bouncing off everything and the wind howling, it lasted about half hour and i returned to sleep

I looked on the radar for about this time and could see bright red echoes, london areas should of had this weather also? Anyone confirm?
