  • Storms across southern parts of England and Wales are expected to continue throughout Thursday morning, interrupting travel and potentially bringing the threat of flood.
    Warnings remain in place for the south-west of England and Wales until 8am Thursday, the Met Office said, while a warning in south-east England was extended to 10am.
    Commuters have reported facing delays as trains are held up on tracks while repairers work to reconnect power and The Met Office warned of “difficult driving conditions and some road closures”.

    It's a bit of hail and thunder. What's the big deal - that it happened in London?

      It did happen in London but it was pretty brief,. in my area, only about 20-30mins I think.

    One of the cells that passed over my town was virtually continuous lighting. Mostly cloud to cloud ( C to C ) but the lighting count on my lightning app was clocking up 1 a second. That's 3600 strikes from just that one cell in an hour. The BBC weather lady said that there were 4000 strikes across the region. She meant 40 000. So anyone who says oh it was nothing much was clearly either asleep or the weather system had simply not gone that far north and west.

      Because it's Southern England and London, we get more frequent storms here in the Midlands then Southern England but they make a big deal about it like they do if they get 1cm of snow in winter.

      ​@@Mrtrollololo No it's London, anything happens in London it's breaking news, these storm ain't rare neither, I like stormchasing these storm ain't rare, the storm was a low elevated thunderstorm nothing too dramatic, convected storms are the worst storms the UK gets, more chance of seeing those storms north of London such as central England.
