Just got woken up at 8am... OMG sooo early.
Not the best wake up ever... Bit of thunder in the background and a cool neon light show from my PC..
Silly Thunder..
Anyone else got a storm?
I was at my desk at work for for 7am, lots of rain but no thunder or lightning
Croydon has either got an electrical storm, or a nuclear bomb has just gone off.
Foul foul foul weather.
Didn't make sandwiches today and I refuse to buy overpriced work canteen grub - so I was wondering whether anyone wouldn't mind popping out to get me a sarnie? Or am I going to have to test the waterproofness of my recently washed coat?

Saw lightning first hand the end of last week, directly infront of my window - perhaps 30 feet away.
50 million tall trees around and the bolt went right through the middle of them, without touching them, and landed in the car park.
The birds, that u don`t realize are there, suddenly left the trees en-mass.
Was well spooky, like a thick bar of flouresent light, and of course the sound didn`t come with it >.<

np's mate and thanks for getting it done so swiftlyname='Toxcity' said:Sorry PV.. Ill get on it!
Forgot!
Here are some images of a storm that we had a couple of years ago that you may be interested in. These storms are typical in both ferocity and frequency here in South East Queensland where I live, the amount of hail however isn't. The last two images are from cctv cameras in West End, about 5 mins from my house. Bear in mind too that this is the middle of summer
Glad you liked them. The lightning is quite stunning to watch and every bolt makes the house shake. Last year a power transformer was blown apart after it was hit by a bolt of lightning about 70 metres from my house. Man, that was scary lol. And agreed on the hail, it certainly does look like snow....probably the closest we'll ever get to seeing the real thing 
Tropical storms are extremely powerful, but unfortunately are rather short-lived. They usually pass in around an hour max.

The powers of electricity eh?
It is very pretty stuff.
Pv, You have never seen snow?
Yeah I played in the snow when I was about 6 or 7, but that was in the southern most state of Australia - Tasmania (next stop is the South Pole rofl). But no, there isn't any snow here in Queensland it's simply too hot.name='Toxcity' said:The powers of electricity eh?
