Guest johnson293 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 The thunder started down here in North Shields (right on Fish Quay) 15 minutes ago, then the rain came and the roads were flooded! Now the rain has eased but the thunder and lightning is still here. Loudest thunder and biggest lightning i've seen here for a long time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 We had non of this least year, if it was overcast it was cold, the humidity is about 75% I recjon, don't feel like your taking a vreath. We have had loads of thunder and a good few rumbles of thunder, wish it would do really dark though, need soem good visible lightening. In another country this would be twister weather.

Jill Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Much prefer the pissing rain and thunder to the sun & heat this week. Loads of people have buggered off for an early finish as there's problems with the metros, at times like this it's gutting to live so close to work. I've been boiling hot all day so gonna go for a run in the rain to cool off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
