Anyone in Glasgow here?

Incredible stuff, lightning every few seconds for the last hour or more, torrential rain too.

Yeah I'm just about 40 mins outside Glasgow. It was awesome. Once sky went off we sat at the window watching it for most of the night.

From my loft window I stood a watched the storm come up the Clyde valley.


Always impressive when the wind drops, and everything falls silent before the onslaught.


There's nothing like a good thunderstorm!

Parents found out that the conservatory in new house leaked in the storm... fine in all the other usual horzontal rain, just way tooo much rain for the gutters. Still not oftne that happens.

I ended out standing in the drive at 9pm watching the lightning...soooooo much better than the TV (not that hard now is it)...
