Ive changed it, Was a 5 amp, Boooring. I have replaced it with a 30amp and No rcd.  

[Bluebreezer54]

Quite an evening and I don't think it's over yet.

 

It started with frequent flashes of lightning, with clear skies and stars visible above. That went on for some 30-40 minutes, then kaboom, the storm suddenly arrived. Torrential rain and booming thunder for about 15 minutes. If you like thunderstorms ( and I do ), you just can't beat a night time lightning display.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

loads more lightning to my south!

[Mark Neal.]

Been quiet here since 9pm. Drier currently though some showers to the SW on the radar have sprung from no-where. Rainfall this evening from the two heavy downpours/thunderstorms is 8.5mm

[stainesbloke]

Gone quiet here, raining a bit but no lightning at the moment

[Jason T]

Hmmm... nice looks like the lot over portsmouth,  Has now linked the tail end of the existing one,Looking like a much bigger cell.?
