Horrible weather...

It's just rained about 2 inches of water in 3 minutes :eek:

Good thing I'm at the top of a hill.

What a lovely British July, makes me wish I was at my brother house in Portugal :rolleyes:

I had my window wipers at full speed and couldnt see more than 5-10 feet ahead of me...

I had to put my fog light on

A totally amazing thunderstorm woke me up an hour ago here in Windsor. There was one crack of thunder which almost broke one of my windows.

I got up early to go out and smoke a cigar in it.

However, I start work at half 10. It's going to be absolute chaos with the aircraft trying to avoid all the storms. I think I'll get the whisky out for when I get home

Feeling sorry for the people about to be flooded, again.

I bet Gilly is loving it though.

i love the rain want a decent thunderstorm today havent had one in awhile .

Raikiri · 20 Jul 2007 at 09:05

You're still at school? Thought they had all finished by now...

Anyway the rain has mostly stopped now, seagulls are going mental. They're most likely mourning their dead after being hit with that

I have to drive to Derby from Norfolk first thing tomorrow and as far as I can tell the weather aint going to be clement!

God is angry....this is what we get when we pollute the earth.... the end of the world is nigh. :eek:

I watched my mum and sister rush out of the house trying to hide their hair getting into the car. I stood at the window laughing...

A massive lightning bolt just caused a massive static release above my house causing a loud crack and spark from My Sony Bravia

Never experienced anything like that before

New pants please!!!

Why? the weather makes it all that more excited - it could then be classed as a extreme sport...much like bungee jumping, but with the added twist of dodging lightning bolts!
