This doesn't even come close to representing it - it was never dark but my phone camera just couldn't cope:

I have a ~20 mile view over the Blackmore Vale here so over the entire horizon it was like that x10.

I thought that was sped up for for a moment then i realized it wasn't..... Jesus....GIB lightning pls to Nottingham

This is just the start of the Gods wrath for allowing Boris in position of power

We can but wish - an ill omen maybe?

Thursday looks like it could be tasty for lighting across most of the Midlands and East side of the UK.

Honestly what is portrayed in the video is more like slowed down compared to what it was actually like - I hope someone around here got some good footage as it was really insane.

We had about 90 minutes of non stop lightning then it stopped for about 30 minutes now it's just all kicked off again.

Same here, literally lightening every second now but no thunder....it’s really bizarre

arc@css · 24 Jul 2019 at 01:24

Way more activity than what I had and I thought what I experienced was enough! That's some pretty intense thunder/lightning.

It was quite weird here how the sound would come in bursts - same apparently lightning activity but sometimes it was rumbling quite substantially other times almost silent. No really big bangs though.

Thunder has started again now, such a bizarre storm.

We had an almighty loud bang as one was literally right overhead

this bad boy better come over derby..... I have work at 4:30am and can't sleep so this better be worth it...

Captain · 24 Jul 2019 at 01:36

Going off here, 30 minutes of solid thunder and lightning, best storm in years.

Droolinggimp · 24 Jul 2019 at 01:37

Just starting in Northampton

Droolinggimp · 24 Jul 2019 at 01:57

I can see some flashes south of derby now

bliss · 24 Jul 2019 at 02:07

Pretty much constant lightning here in Stoke on trent . :eek:

sanaxe1 · 24 Jul 2019 at 02:07

Lightning in Nottingham not heard any thunder yet but quite a few flashes, I am going to stop that though and just watch the storm.

Puzzled · 24 Jul 2019 at 02:15

That was fun, gone quiet now but still getting plenty of flashes. Heard the fan dip in power so guessing something electrical wise got hit, heard one really loud crack as well but had to close the windows due to the rain coming in.
