2 flashes of lightning quickly followed by thunder at approx 11.14pm here in hebburn, south tyneside tonight

friends reporting lightning in Newcastle

No snow, but a massive rumble of thunder here around 610am. Having checked the Isle of Wight lightening radar it matches a CG strike in the channel at the same time.

Amazing, but thats the first rumble of thunder heard here this year!

Thundersnow yet again this morning (6:30) up here in the Northeast 3 very bright blue flashes followed by deep low loud rumbles.. Brilliant start to the working week..!

[knocker]

Thunderstorm with moderate snow betwen 0700 and 0720. Snow now appears to have ceased but storm continues. The general synoptic situation at 0600; of course the channel is relatively warm.This must be very rare in these parts and I certainly don't remember ever seeing it before.

No snow, but we had a fairly mild storm here starting at 7:10 and (I assume, as it hasn't thundered for a while now) ending at 7:40 with the weirdest sounding thunder I have ever heard. I could literally hear the electricity!

[Alex95]

Potent little thunderstorms at around midnight and 6:00-7:30, the one this morning was probably the best storm of the year here - very loud claps of thunder, bright flashes of lightning and 2 inches of fresh snow from each storm. Hoping for more today.

[Rollo]

Two bouts of thunder snow to report one at 11-30 pm last night with only light to moderate snow and a larger event at 6-30 am today-the last time I can recall such an event here was in 1979.

[rodders]

Yes got Thunder Snow Redruth in Cornwall about 8 flashes complete with loud thunder two power cuts after first two snowing at the time brief hail shower then back to snowing. Between 07:10 and 07:30 always wanted to see it never thought i would so far in the south west.

[kernowman]

 The thunderstorm over Camborne woke me up just before 7am, lasted 20-25mins and a couple of strikes were directly above where I was. Quite spectacular stuff something I've never experienced before.

Edit

Just had another bout of Thundersnow between 10.00am and 10.20am.

[Thundery wintry showers]

My parents confirm that there was thundersnow at Cleadon twice- 11:20pm last night and 6:20am this morning, with loud, overhead cracks of thunder in both cases.

[Damone]

Just had another between 10:00 and 10:25, and it dropped a fair bit of snow. Thunder every 3 minutes with bright lightning.
