3 Claps of thunder, torrential rain and a large, possibly damaging, tornado here in Soham (South Eastern Cambridgeshire). It was very stormy indeed with large pea sized hail smashing down, looked like the storms they get in Texas . Vue pictures in storms and extreme weather section..

My only storm this year was a whi9le back and i cant remember the date, but it was very small with 3 rumbles of thunder.

I'm just thinking whether there was any more - cant think of any..............

oh yes, late at night back in april, 4 big rumbles or something like that....

been fairly quiet in storm terms however we have missed about 10 which have travelled just to the north/west/east/south of us!!!

i'm in Ware, Herts by the way.

2 Storms from yesterday, the 1st at about 1245pm with a Thunderbolt which must have been close, lightning and instant thunder which shook the house, 2nd storm at about 4pm with a few crashes of thunder. Screwed the BBQ Up just a tad!!

Yes like to verify Paul's assertion there. A thunderbolt in the direction of Hockley Woods in the storm circa 13.00 whilst I was in Rayleigh and then another storm at about 16.15 with cg observed over Southend.
