If only it would reach Lincolnshire despite being in a warning area, but feel like were too North for early hours, but cells are firing up

There will always be a chance

You don't see this very often in the UK, a mass of thunder storms across the channel!

Can see not infrequent flashes to my south east - one faint peel of thunder too

A couple of louder rumbles here. Something is coming for us!

I dunno I have a feeling, fingers crossed anyway

GFS does suggest rain around 3/4am, just depends if its thundery

[StormLoser]

Uh-oh. Looks like the Gap Between Storms is going to be my curse once again.     Enjoy your storms, all!

That large and very active storm seems to be heading north easterly asif it will hit Brighton and hopefully new haven and seaford. I’m a little biased

Spreads all the way from the south coast into France!

Saw two faint flashes to the east of here around 9:45PM so I am assuming that was from the lot of showers that were to the southeast.

Had quite heavy rain for a bit but there are clear skies now and I haven't seen any more faint flashes.

Better get off this thread now as I assume that's it for here and I think I am going to get quite upset seeing all of the reports of lightning going on in the South of England.

[thunderhead 2005]

WOW omg those flashes, looks like more cells are popping up

I have this thing that if I’m over exited I will vomit, we’ll I just did so guess that mean either I’m acualy I’ll or I’m just super exited. I think it’s the later. Also whey does the storm look like a little alien with two legs and stalk with a head on

Just saw my first definite flash all the way from here and through the humid misty fog. Come on!!!

Eastbourne’s skies are lighting up as the lightning from multiple cells are visible from here

[Mapantz]

It's kicking off here. Lightning in all directions and torrential rain 

[Thunders]

That big storm looks to hit near portslade so I think I’ll get a bit of it!

[Ryan H]

I am looking outside to see the skies lighting up maybe because of the storm coming towards me on the south west side of it.

[Eagle Eye]

Very frequent lightning to my east but it's not gonna get anywhere near me. Still looking to my SW really.

Yeah same but this time I can see lightening from Brighton way

[thunderhead 2005]

Southerners expect a very noisy night as all of this moves north.

[Harry's House]

Lightning seen, light rain

[CoventryWeather]

Enjoy your night all. I'm off to bed for a few hours. Hoping them storms around Bournemouth stay active until here, should be around 2/3 ish. 

Good luck, can't wait to see the pictures tomorrow!
