We have had amazing Thunder and Lightning where I live.   I love thunderstorms.    Unfortunately dogs hate it.  I was out in the middle of nowhere when it started and got dragged all the way home by two freaked out dogs. Massive fork lightning straight ahead. Fantastic.

What have other areas been like?     For once the weather man was correct Cheesy

Kilmarnock area.   It is still going on, really massive bangs.  The fork lightning has gone, but there is plenty of sheet lightning still.

Kilmarnock - that's Scotland, right? Do you see Ironside when you go to the shops?

I was, apparently, born during a terrific thunderstorm and I adore them.

It's pretty heavy over this way, and feels like something is about to give.

No thunder or lightening yet tho!

Bet it does when I'm in the Casino and I miss it!!!!  lol

My dogs freak out during thunderstorms and on November 5th.  During this time, I close all the windows, doors and put on ABBA Gold or Tom Jones greatest hits really loud.  From experience that music drowns out the sound of the bangs and my dogs can't hear it as much.  Dancing Queen is an old favorite of one of my dogs.  Cheesy

I'm at my folks' house in Sanquhar Sark & the storm passed right over us. Fantastic to watch, but the dog's lying at my feet at the moment trembling. She's not allowed in this room, but we've not got the heart to eject her.

Major problem is there aws a lightning strike really close to the house & therer's a nasty smell of melted plastic & the Sky's off... bet it's not covered by the warranty either.

None in Rotherham at the moment Wink  I hate lightening.  My friends car got hit by lightening
about 10 years ago when she was driving it.  She was a very lucky lady that her car didn't blow up
