It's too hot :(

my brain has gone into hibernation

portable unit ?

Yessir. Old delonghi pinguin unit

 

[Goodie]

Haven’t seen a storm like this before around north staffs/Cheshire, pretty much a constant rumble of thunder for half an hour now and lightning strikes every couple of seconds, feels as though it’s all around us but in the distance. Really strange.

 

[phil-k]

the whole sky has been lighting up for over an an hour north of Stoke and now it has started to thunder

 

[bliss]

Really looks like Market Drayton is getting pounded.

 

[Puzzled]

Really weird storm, loads of lightning but no thunder. Must be far away but from the look of it I wouldn't want to be in its path

I dont know if there is a lot of saharan dust in the air but these bolts are more orange than the usual white.

We had something like that a year ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6Qdxahv2Tk went on for quite some time.

Wow, I'm in South Cheshire also, and not seen a lightning storm like this in a long time. Constant lightning, rolling thunder and tipping it down. At least it should cool things down a bit!

I'm very jealous, dying for a storm and torrential rain here, so sick of 30c temps and no decent sleeps, it's been 5 days now.

Just had a power cut, only lasted 10 seconds but now someone’s house alarm is going off over the road and it has been for 10 minutes now.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Well we’ve just had rain like the tropics. Don’t think I’ve ever seen rain like that in the uk. Surprisingly no lightning.

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Had a decent storm here was weird though as loads of lightening but not much thunder just a constant distant sounding rumble. Not done much for the temp though it’s still too damn hot.....

Just going to be super humid after this in the heat tomorrow.

I can't sleep due to the heat. This is simply unbearable. times like this make me wish I installed an AC unit in my bedroom.

Buy a portable a/c unit and have a good night sleep?

Same here. My portable a/c unit was one of my most prized possessions when I lived in the UK.

 

[ultralaser]

There's just not enough need for A/C in the UK. I mean we might have the odd 10 days or so that we need it, otherwise it's pointless

I disagree for the south east. It’s getting warmer in the summers too. It’s the best thing we did and it heats too and far more economically than most other solutions. We’ve used it lots this year.

I respect your opinion but disgaree

Thunderstorm up here since about 5pm and it's meant to continue on until 7am. It's the craziest thing I have ever seen here.

 

[Flack88]

Just outside Stafford, this storm is mental, constant flashes and thunder. Just had some insane bangs really close. No way I can sleep in this, it's like a strobe disco!
