sage Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Well that Lightning is keeping me awake. Some serious flashes over Ashbourne and Wirksworth. Glad to be only on the edge of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjam Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Went out around midnight last night to try and catch a few meteors but the sky was to cloudy - was treated to an amazing light show that repeatedly lit the sky up above the clouds. Eerily quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuffLuff Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Got woke up in south Sheffield around 1.30 and had an intense 30 minutes of thunder and lightning. Think the worst of it was in north Derbyshire though and was coming down the valley to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure i could muster up the occasional 30 mins of thunder and lightening when younger.......now it's more of a dank drizzly November....?

What I usually promise to be thunder and lightening usually just ends up in a flash flood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
