best one I rememeber was about 1982, was'nt raining, had been quite humid and Iwas laid on my bed watching the lightning forking accross the sky, was awaome.

Only other thing I can say taht impressed me more with weather activity was when i saw the Northern Lights in Aberdeen when I was abour 14.

Just spoke to my folks who are on a caravaning holiday in the deepest depths of Cornwall. They've had storms and rain for the past 24 hours. They were meant to be moving to another site this morning but the fire brigade won't let them move as they are having to pump all the water out of the site! :o :o

When we arrived on site in Plymouth this morning it was torrential rain... Managed to get the awning up in a lull and it's now brilliant sunshine :y :y :y

Just getting a few beers down my neck and chilling now :y :y :y
