Literally the best storm I've seen in years in Norwich this evening. Absolutely torrential rain, great structure, massive CGs and some of the most frequent CC lightning I've seen in a long time. I'll post pics/video later.

Heavy rain here again now, with occasional thunder & lightning (too sporadic to try and photo though) - just had a CG :)

2nd storm and subsequent rain brought rainfall total for the day up to 22.8mm - making it my wettest day for nearly 2 years.

That's noy bad Andy; 12.6mm in Wellesbourne yesterday; I think we probably had a drop more in Worcester; yesterday's storms were pretty much west to east.
