BBC can't get anything right, especially the weather.

There is absolutely no way a thunderstorm is hitting my area today, it’s a beautiful summers day out there

Up near Fairford getting some strikes now

The best lightning storm I've ever seen up this way started out with a day like that.

It is the most humid it has been in Brighton on any of these days. Horrible today.

Interesting looking at this 2hr playback and watching the storm clouds build up from nothing very quickly over Fairford where most of the lightning has been so far.

First few strikes hitting around Winchester, annoyingly the rainfall is just north of us in SO18.

The storm south of Oxford looks amazing from lightning maps

Darkening in Surrey and rumbles in the distance, could just be someone putting the bins out. Or my tummy, as I'm quite hungry.

 

[robfosters]

Nothing here but I can definitely feel a change in the air

 

[Lucifurr]

Getting dark here. I can hear a lot of distant rumbling.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Looking angry around Gatwick currently.

 

[BriT]

Well that was dissapointing, few rumbles and a bit of rain lol (Reading)

 

[~Mike~]

Thunder & lightning and torrential rain over the past hour here, gutters and drains can't cope.

Probably from waiting to get through security.

The sky is making the rumblies that only a big storm can satisfy.

 

[bingham67]

Strikes seem to spawn out of Winchester haha and surrounding, looks like lightning build up around Royal Tunbridge Wells, wonder if that will push into London within the next few hours.

 

[Neil79]

More storms kicking off west of Tunbridge Wells
