Were due a bit of 'nasty' weather late on this afternoon in the NW. Personally, i love it. The more rain, thunder and lightning the better.

 

[SideWinder]

About to go to Shoreham beach with friends.

I feel sorry for all of the uni students graduating at the uni today there; they won't be pleased by the nasty weather.

i just watched "pirates of the caribbean 2: dead mans chest" earlier too... it be a bad omen i tells ye.

Where were you watching it? I saw that in Southampton last night...

 

[Blackstar_solar]

Just spoke to my sister who is at our parents house just outside Eastleigh (just outside So'ton) said she could see and hear it there!

must be an uber storm

How many more bloody weather threads?
It rains, the sun comes out and it gets a bit hotter, it snows in winter, sometimes we have thunder and lightning and all the jessies hide under their beds, hailstorms are less frequent but occur occasionally. There you go, i just summed up weather for you, it's there 24/7, we don't need to make threads about it every single day surely? It changes all the time, get over it. It's getting like the scammer threads :/

And if you think thunder and lightning here is bad, go to australia and see some of the lightning storms.. and take some clean frillies too if you're not fond of it.

because we don't get many thunder storms down here?
Us Southerners need to discuss the volume of the thunder so we can see where its heading

good grief there's a lot of us in Southampton isn't there

I'm in chandlers ford and was upstairs trying to subdue the children and decided to stare out of the window at it for a bit and there was the most ridiculously bright flash which literally blinded me for a couple of seconds (not good, I was stood at the top of the stairs ) and the crack was like a bomb going off!

I love that sort of weather, just not so good with a 4yr old and a 1yr old

BBC Weather had us down for thunder and lightning today and Friday but they magically changed their minds this morning, it's as clear as it's been yet

 

[Overlag]

Anyone near Southampton see the large flash?

The thunder took ages to get to Chandlers Ford but damn it was loud.

And they said we would have no thunder storms tonight

flew around it coming back from tenerife (1:30am).... lovely little display

I see the beginnings of a Soton meet/pub crawl

BBC weather said we would get Thunder this afternoon, now they are saying its going to be clear.... Their weather service is carp.

I hope we do get some more rain at least, its boiling at the moment, nearly died just cutting the grass.
