I don't even know if it's heading our way....it's way off in the channel at the moment 

Looking at the radar it’s looking like it’s going to be hard for it to miss us tonight! Loads of storms to south and sw of us

Oh - a cell popping up just south of me! The "Reigate Corridor" phenomenon might be broken as a meteorological model I just made up this afternoon.

Ok that "My Lightning Tracker" app is fully bugged... It's just started playing boss fight music for no reason while I try and figure out why there are so many false detections!

That’s called ‘hacked’

It look like that storm is making a north easterly curve towards new haven/ seaford

I think it was trying to play an ad but for some reason it didnt actually pop up on my screen. 

Still was pretty spooky!

[Mitch the motorbike storm]

The east side of the storm has lost all lightning

[TauntonRoss]

Reckon this could move over as far West as Somerset? It seems further West on the radar than was predicted, more widespread.

Flashes becoming a bit more frequent now. Hearing the odd rumble too.

I think that it will start to shift more easterly over the coming hours

[Woodboss]

Channel is lighting up like the national grid, good luck to all that are out tonight!

I agree, the trough is moving NNE so it will bypass us
