Yes! I'm in East London and just looked at lightening maps and it looks like it might be a lively night. I love a good storm.

Butterflykissess · 26/05/2018 22:52

It's been freaking me out! Its definitely where I am in London.

ShutUpBaz · 26/05/2018 22:53

Bugger all up here , I love a good storm even though they also scare me a bit !

TattyFrench · 26/05/2018 22:54

I'm in South East and it's been going for a good 30 mins. Loads of lightening but just tiny grumblings of thunder. It seemed right over us at one point.

ToadOfSadness · 26/05/2018 22:56

It has started to get cool here so hope it is one the way, has been horribly humid for the last few days. (Almost Herts).

TattyFrench · 26/05/2018 22:57

Thanks MrsTommy I'm right underneath the cluster over East Sussex. It's amazing but what's going on? I don't think I've seen a lightening storm before, there's no rain and just tiny thunder?

ToadOfSadness · 26/05/2018 22:58

on the way

frasier · 26/05/2018 23:00

In central London. Just heard first thunder.

bluerunningshoes · 26/05/2018 23:01

we have rain, but not much.
lightshow still going on.
reminds me of my time in the us midwest where we had a spectacular thunderstorm each day (sometimes with threat of tornados)
I loved watching them

MrsTommy that map is brilliant!

Nowisthemonthofmaying · 26/05/2018 23:04

I've been really enjoying it here in London. Nothing spectacular but the air feels electric and the lightning is nicely apocalyptic. Lots of people don't seem to be noticing it though, too busy looking at their phones!

HasAnyoneGotAProblemWithThat · 26/05/2018 23:05

I can hear the thunder in the distance

Urubu · 26/05/2018 23:05

SW London, wow that is spectacular!

LighthouseSouth · 26/05/2018 23:06

Frasier
Outer London
Lightning only for about 20 mins

bluerunningshoes · 26/05/2018 23:07

love that map.
looks like there is more to come

Oh its thunder is it, thought it was my stomach!

IrenetheQuaint · 26/05/2018 23:08

Amazing combined sheet and fork lightning in NE London, with distant thunder

thinkofablinkingnamewoman · 26/05/2018 23:08

Near Glastonbury but in a tent. Big storm earlier, thought it had died down but seems to be returning. Eeek.
