Thunderstorms

[Mynight]

That's amazing! Found a background for the third monitor now

Looks like a scene out of Independence Day

Big time in leighton buzzard. My poor dog is a mess

 

[Maccapacca]

Awesome

 

[tbyeah]

Managed to get maybe 8 decent photos, by constantly mashing take picture on the phone. It's now too intermittent to do that, so let's delete the 1000 pitch black useless ones

Still getting about two or three a minute mind, must be far away as no thunder though. Rain stopped as well.

 

[Akagi]

It is long gone here, total silence for about an hour.

You have it all to look forward to!

 

[SDK^]

Here it comes

 

[Mujja]

Part 2 just arrived in Portsmouth

 

[robfosters]

WooHoo!

Just got woken up by a cracker!!!

 

[Akagi]

A Christmas cracker?

Bit late!

Big time in leighton buzzard. My poor dog is a mess

Yeah my Nan's dog Sophie, a Springer Spaniel (which I named and visit at least weekly) is terrified of the thunder and lighting. I sit in the cupboard under the stairs with her and comfort her.

With her old dogs (RIP) Rosie and Poppy (also Springer Spaniels) they were the same, though Poppy (Rosie's Mum, and the old Gal, was less phased by them)

I have a weird image of a man looking confused and lost sitting up in bed, some confetti and a Christmas cracker on the floor.

Sat watching the show

I have a weird image of a man looking confused and lost sitting up in bed, some confetti and a Christmas cracker on the floor.

And dogs huddled around looking as if something is bothering them? This has happened in the past. It was both very annoying and very cute in equal measure.

I was stood at my window for at least an hour, just leaning and staring out. That was ridiculous, the regularity and intensity.

 

[2StepSteve]

That was good. But now I can't get back to sleep!

 

[Akagi]

Another lightning strike/thunder clap in Sussex. I had just fallen asleep!

 

[ak22]

Rain! thank you god

 

[tbyeah]

The lightning has come back and is flashing like mad now.

And as I type there's the thunderclap.

 

[Swissy]

Loved the storm , downside is at work we now have a bunch of rats running around our warehouse , i think they got flooded out or something

 

[Lunatic Dreyfus]

Still going on in Leighton Buzzard, though the lightning looks to be further north. Must be about three hours of it so far.

Nothing really loud though.

Storms here since 1:30am. Last strike seems to have hit either Broadmoor hospital or one of the local siren towers as the Broadmoor siren has been going for the past hour now. Storms tracking north east across London now.
