Thunderstorm - Hastings

Im sure my dad will be pleased, he's obsessed, he lives in St Leonards, up the street from Warrior Square Train Station, either that or he'll sleep through it lol

[loopydreamer]

im thinking that the storm just ckipped the edge of chatham! maybe a bit too far north

[West Sussex Kate]

Not much going on in here in Sussex!

[Kain]

Well the rain arrived at WV16 right on cue, nothing more than a sharp shower though.

[Neilsouth]

Anyone in Ashford look to your south west!

[Mesoscale]

one bit of really really distant lightning if i wasnt looking in that location at the time i wouldnt of seen it, suerly i should be able to see the lightning happening in south london as when theres a storm in the thames estuary i can see them! maybee its too cloudy!

[Thundery wintry showers]

T.W.S. were you home for this 1? You just have to watch this it's brilliant.

I wasn't, although my parents reported it from Cleadon on that day. Thanks for the link- gives a good idea of what it was like! That month had 7 thunder-days at Cleadon which probably made it the most thundery month in the South Shields area since June 1980. I don't feel hard done by missing that storm though, since Norwich also had 7 thunder-days that month, and while at the Met Office in Exeter I had a couple of surprisingly potent ones by Exeter's standards in the preceding June.

I've just heard a couple of cracks of thunder and seen some distant lighting, just turned the computer off and turned the light off and there it was, just had to load everything back up to come back on here lol. Anyone know where it's coming from? It was quite distant? im in WS8 x
