The most memorable storm I saw happened about fifteen years ago.

We'd spent a fantastic day water ski-ing on Windermere. Hot, blue skies, perfect. We were going on holiday soon afterwards so towed the boat back to Ossy. It was sunny all the way down the M6, then suddenly the sky went black as we got to the Tickled Trout turn off near Preston. Then it absloutely bucketed it down. A real torrential downpour.

By the time we got on the dual carriageway from the Moat House to Brownhill the roads were three feet deep in water. When we slowly descended down to the Brownhill round-about the boat started to float in the water. We got some funny looks but at least made a few people laugh. It was even photographed and was in the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.

Glad to eventually get back home we were amazed to find the storm hadn't even hit Oswaldtwistle and not a drop of rain had fell.

It’s still bloody hot up here, there’s no air around and the fan isn’t helping all that much. No sign of rain, thunder or lightening. It's that still outside I can hear seagulls farting a mile away.

You may find a new fangled electric fan is more effective than the lace one with a Spanish lady on you are currently using.

It wasn't coming your way chick, it came in on a S.E. wind and went off towards Yorkshire.

We got lighting, four five times, and thunder, but no storm. The air pressure here is unbearable :(

Love a good storm and the one yesterday was good.

Hope we have another one soon as I'm sat in the office with the window which is on the shady side open wide, a fan keeping the air moving and I'm still blinking roasting.

Give us another storm please mother nature, it's stifling.

Did anyone notice that when the thunderstorm started yesterday that their broadband connection was playing up until about 9:00pm when it sorted itself out.

My exchange is Great Harwood, can this have some bearing on the difficulty?

Woah, when there's thunder and lightning about I always disconnect following a friends experience of having his motherboard fried in similar circumstances.
