Ok...wtf is going on with the weathere here. Im not sure if its were anyone else is, but almost everday were getting fairly majour thunderstorms pass directly overhead, showering bolts or lightning all around us. I was woke up at 11:30 when the sun was out and was a beauftil day, whilst still in bed at 12 (im lazy) I got up in time to see a huge flash of fork lightning smash into the ground literly feet away from our house, followed by a bone shattering ruble of thunder....well it wasnt really a rumble, it was an intense crackle sound and a series of booms.

And this isnt the onlytime, this has happened almost everyday for the last couple of weeks. So is it just im in a lightning hotspot, or is anyone else getting this weather?

Well, up here in Wolverhampton, we've had a couple of storms, but they were rubbish [:(] they have just like a few distant rumbles, we seen a couple of flashes though, we haven't had a decent storm up here in ages [:(] Its just hot is all 30 degrees centigrade plus. This is England we shouldn't have to put up with THAT!!!! 30 bloody degrees (what that in faranheit?) Anyway, its like 20 degrees centigrade at night and has been for the past few weeks, I am so tired cus i haven't had a decent nights sleep in weeks......bloody heat, I live in England, I expect rain and cold.....not heat!

Flooding here in Leeds, was great fun watching someone in a caterham sports car get drenched in the torrential downpours. Strange weather patterns though, it was boiling hot and sunny today, but the last 2 days non stop heavy rain.
