Not just lightning but continuous, not stopping at all, I'm in the NW. I thought the light was going in the kitchen but can see it from every window.

Lancashire coast - continuous sheet lightning with constant rumble of thunder. Pouring down now. Been like this for at least three quarters of an hour.

NE here too and it's like a strobe light with no sound. Never seen this before. Like an alien landing light!

I'm in North Wales and a very active storm has been raging in the east for about an hour. It's like non stop lightning right now!

It's an electrical storm. Been watching out of my window for about an hour and a half. It is really alien isn't it.

We’ve had floods, killer viruses, bubonic plague, explosions and smart monkeys...

So just volcanoes, zombies, Godzilla and aliens to go, plenty of time yet, it’s only August...

I've been watching the Lightening Maps tonight and never seen anything like it! Good luck sleeping tonight but hopefully it will be cooler tomorrow for it.

If you get the storm tracker app you can click when see lightning and again when you hear thunder and it tells you how far away it is.
