I was very surprise we had thunderstorms in Telford for 45 minutes with bolt of lightning, heavy hailstones and gusty wind. Never seen any thunderstorms in January before?

Weirdo weather.

It's probably won't last longer thought. We had lightning only lasted 5 minutes this morning. Rather disappointed. I heard there is round two on the way around 4pm this afternoon but it likely to be less than round one this morning.
