Was working in Woking today some heavy thunder and lightning during the afternoon. At just before 5 o clock there was a huge clap of thunder and a near by CG strike that actually tripped the surge protectors on the pc’s. someone said it hit the building but I cant confirm that.

[Andy Bown]

Having watched storms building in the distance all afternoon, and only getting sharp showers here, I had to go out to football (away) at 18.00. At that time a huge storm cloud seemed to be edging in from Salisbury Plain.

There was a spell of torrential rain between 1830-1930 and my parents counted 2 flashes of lightning and 2 rumbles of thunder.

Further showers have fallen since and there has been 5mm of rain.

[Kent Snow]

Drove through a heavy rain shower earlier today. No electrical activity, but it was one hell of a cloud.
