Thunder and lightning since midday and still going on now with very heavy rain showers.

 

[Giraffe]

Distant tumbles are getting louder. Next half hour could get lively.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

One helluva show out there right now East of Brighton.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Hot and dry here in Fav. Disappointing as I was hoping for a feed for the troots, kale and toms. *******.

 

[Zukey Seagull]

Too loud and bright. I just want to sleep LOL. We're in Worthing and it's been going on for a while now

 

[Kosmonaut]

Some big ones in hangleton just now.

 

[Dick Head]

Epic light show over Bevendean.



Edit: Unless it's Barber testing our PLR floodlights.

 

[Mellotron]

This is INSANE. In Worthing and it is absolutely constant. Rain not that heavy but thunder and lightning literally nonstop for quite a while now.

Wouldn't mind some sleep at some point, can someone reassure me that this will end soon?

 

[Deleted User X18H]

Yup never seen a storm like this. Sky is just constantly lit up, amazing.

Can we blame the storm on the wind farm?

Chrysalism - n. the amniotic tranquility of being indoors during a thunderstorm, listening to waves of rain pattering against the roof like an argument upstairs, whose muffled words are unintelligible but whose crackling release of built-up tension you understand perfectly.



But seriously, I wish it would give it a bleeding rest now.

Looks like loads more to come on the map.

This is the worst thunder and lightning storm I can ever remember. Sky constantly lit up. Mental scenes.

 

[Petee]

Well that's me awake now
Can't imagine there's a single person in the whole of Sussex that is sleeping through this
