Rush2019 as far as I know nobody hurt , 3 fire engines attended . My ears were literally still ringing an hour later .

Reefseeker omg I knew it was close but it was even closer than I thought. The building at the end of our road was hit by the bolt we both heard . Literally about 70 meters from our home . Feel fortunate it missed us but sorry for those affected , hopefully they have insurance. Speaking to neighbours other homes near the strike also have damage.

We had a storm earlier today around 2:30pm and had a thunder bolt so loud it made by ears ring . The power also went off . Just walked to the end of my street and the house as been struck. Reports from neighbours say there is damage to quite a few properties near by.

Reefseeker yes it felt like that here too. My ears hurt and all our electronic devices went temporarily off . It didn't even rain for long

Reefseeker OMG Massive thunder bolt . Bright flash and instant thunder . My heart is still racing . In Chessington. My ears are still ringing.

Nooooo , Not now , do one . damianslaw yes they're gaining in momentum in the last 24 hours . ps , got sunburned on my bald head at Thorpe park today waiting for the rides . Sun wasn't that prevalent either.

Addicks Fan 1981 was hoping for a move in of high pressure from the southwest but as someone said yesterday a new trend has now revealed itself albeit transient. However as @ANYWEATHERsays below an improvement on the dross of previous weeks.

Oh no ECM Gem

Hmm, ECM like a dog with a bone . So close .

January Snowstorm wow without reading on , this seems some rant from yourself.

Blimey the fat lady isn't quite singing yet .

Looks promising for the heat lovers coming up to spring, given up on winter now so let's go for some warmth. Hopefully we get 20c before 28th i think it is . Letss go ...... summer lovers

Daniel* haven't commented for ages, feel despondent, down about the weather etc. It seems the Fat lady is about to open up her tonsils. For me as a lover of extremes , either Snow or heat. Lets goooo. Ps , I know 18c and mehhhhhh

Am I about to be rewarded for successfully completing dry January . ECM 120 Beers in if we can repeat UKMO 168
