Are thunderstorms rare in London or was this really big (just wondering cos in Northumberland they aren't uncommon)

Yes, heard it in Surrey! It woke me but my husband and 1 year old slept through it. I thought the roof was coming in!

East London: constant lightning and various sound levels of thunder in terms of volume and frequency

Sharing a room with my toddler at the in laws in Hertford and he sleeps with thunderstorm white noise, so yes but not the one you are referring to.

Lincolnshire. A storm usually wakes me up and I slept soundly all night.

Just grey and drizzle here now.

Currently on a nightshift. We've had heavy rain in Midlands but no storms.

Most horrifying thing ever, it might be me being dramatic but I HATE thunderstorms… we seemed to have it so so bad I’m in Hertfordshire, my whole house was actually awake and me and my boyfriend were shaken up as we left the window open in my room and it decided to continuously strike cars outside my house setting off 3 alarms at once..I actually felt so sick because of the intital shock lolll I’ve never ever in my life had it feel like my house and outside my house was constantly getting struck. Now it’s all gone everything feels so quiet. Cant sleep though honestly so scared to wake up to a noise that loud again aha

It was just a next level dystopian film so yeah saying it felt like the world was gonna end is spot on, just seeing the strikes hit the cars and just set everything off was insane, non stop lighting. 20 years alive never ever seen it like this…..

I know I’m carrying it on but seeing people say it was tame I’m jealous, the thunder was so so loud, And the lighting was striking left right and centre with monsoon kinda rain. I’m actually shocked but also intrigued at this. Hope everyone’s animals are safe. My kitty it out there some where probably shit scared :(
