[Louise]

Just had a storm here, lasted around 45 mins. Lots of thunder - not sure about the lightning because I was trying to get some shut-eye while the little one was sleeping!!! The thunder was lovely though.. pops and cracks but not deafeningly house-shaking and booming. Lots of rain as it moved through. Brightening up again now.

[Terminal Moraine]

Thunderstorm here between 1450 and present. A spell of very heavy rain which has eased to moderate in the last 5 minutes.

Temp' has fallen from around 17c before the storm to 12.7c now.
