[Guest Squitters]

Yes... storm just passed over Southend, some nice CGs Strike Alert's having a party...

[Nick F]

Had a T-storm around 4pm with heavy downpours - though no hail. Occasional thunder to start with, but the storm intensified as it moved away east with flashes every minute, good cg seen over Chelmsford at the time .

Looks like something's passing just to the south of us, here in Watford. Anything in London, right now?

Hey all

we had a thunder storm here about an hour ago, my god was it loud!! :shock: :shock:

heavy rain too (just what we need!)

I've got a nice picture (video still, is that cheating?) but I don't know what to do with it. I could send it to someone via email if they can help. Managed to get the video camera to work this time round! and it had tape in it. woo hoo!!!

4 Huge storms passed over Portsmouth, shame I was unable to enjoy them because of work.

3 of them followed each other, with about a 15 minuet gap between each dumping loads of rain. They started about 11:30 and finished at 14:30

[Adi F]

Oh, with all that excitement of 4 storms today I forgot that I was woke at about 3am by thunder and lightning. So in all a great day

[Darren Bown]

Had thunder and lightning earlier in the day here, but I was in Cheadle and only got heavy rain. Mum said my strike alert was going barmy all day!

[Cakie]

:shock: Tonight has got to be one of my worst/scariest journeys home.

Heavy rain from another storm made the roads extreamly flooded with water, mud and stones.

At one point I had to slow right down as the rain was so heavy I could not make out the road or anyone on it :? :shock:

I'm just glad I have a diesel car, cos some of the water I've had to drive through tonight would have stalled a petrol car

Had a thunder storrm here lots of lighting and thunder and very very heavy rain.

[Chris Imrie]

It was quite intense when it reached me in Bordon, nr Petersfield.

[WeatherGod]

Torrential rain with thunder and lightning here.

[SnowJoke]
