It wasn't lighting. Saw a couple of strange flashes coming back from Sainsbury's in Gloucester.............complete absence of thunder, so any pillock that says it was lightning is........well.........a pillock

lol

I know what you mean. Ive seen at least 3 or 4 flashes. I assume it is lightning.

I thought so too but was eerily quiet never seen the lighting flash from outside of the storm, bizzare

I'd assume people could tell the difference between lightning and one of the Geminid meteors that are currently on display in the night sky but judging by what some people post I'm not sure I should - can't be lightning because there was no thunder for example.

The speed of light is slightly faster than the speed of sound... give it a few minutes more..
