Huge storm with rotation just about to hit here you need to keep an eye on this one for tornadoes!

Of the numerous thunderstorms that have come near here this year, that one had the best thunder. Blimey as I type that the loudest boom yet!

Hearing of some local flash flooding in N Norfolk! I certainly saw a line of vicious storms heading that way earlier on. Had some wicked thunder in Borough today too. :) turning out to be quite a good day.

The storm we had here has passed over, Nice and fresh now. But its still BOOMING away in the distance. Very good.

Still hearing faint rumbles in the distance, apart from the one thats going on now which was a tad louder. CB's are towering to my south south west.

Possible another cell heading for Bristol soon. Cell over Cardiff could continue to develop as it heads east into our lovely Cape we currently have.

Still hearing BOOMS of thunder. My blitzortung app on my phone is constantly alerting me of strikes in the area. A lot to the east of Bristol. And fresh strikes occurring around Newport.

Although I haven't experienced a storm for years now....today is the day I have heard the most thunder since my last storm in 2007. The sky is now very black to my West where constant booms are being heard. It just doesn't stop!!

That is precisely what I will take from today's events too. They sure are some pokey little cells, mind you I am still gagging for an overnight show.
