Flashes of lightning now about every minute but still a distance away, illuminates the mist over n/e derbyshire. Heavy rain now falling. The thunder has arrived nearly exactly 24 hours after last nights.
Can here the same storm as you i think, its to my south west which figures, very deep booms of thunder. foggy and overcast. been drizzling all day, drying up slowly now
Now just raining heavily with the odd flash and rumble maybe every 5 minutes, storm approached at around 9.30 pm and was at its peak at probably 10.30 with some frequent spectacular lightning. Some very welcome rain now falling. Much more spectacular than anticipated here in sheffield.
lightning getting nearer, can hear the thunder now. the cloud base looks quite high but the colour is red/black. amazing fork lightning now stretching from the pennines around chesterfield to as far east as i can see towards mansfield/bolsover.
lots of lightning over chesterfield, to my south west. dark cloud for a few hours but only in the past 30 mins has it started to kick off. lots of cloud to ground. 3 a min ave
