Some of these thunderstorms could contain hail, thunder and lightning. That sounds about right.

[@SceneArtisan]

If they contained doughnuts and coffee I might have a slight protestation. :D

[@tariqmahmood2263]

Ok Einstein

[@MrDavey2010]

What?? Thunderstorms could contain thunder? OMG! Tell the authorities!

[@Abi-Grey8]

It would be a bit disturbing if a thunderstorm didn’t have any thunder.

[@markrichards7164]

Just had a thunderstorm storm with hail.

[@ilovewindyskirts]

Wow...Thuderstorms contain Thunder & Lighting, she's good..I never knew that!!

[@christinepease890]

Beautiful day today but I do love thunderstorms and heavy rain, too.

[@usaneebeilles9510]

[@peternewman3487]

Warm with a chance of a cool beer or three.

[@Kingtrollface259]

Love a good thunder storm

[@nicolaf970]

3-4 days of warm weather and it’s all over with thunderstorms 😢…

[@darrenpimlott]

Welcome to spring and summer. Usually after a bit spell there are always thunderstorms. I actually love thunderstorms and find them relaxing

[@LiamJones-bm1eu]

I hope we see thunderstorms in Bishop Auckland today in North east

[@elaineambrose7413]

Looks okay for the East 🎉🎉🎉

[@lewisbush7732]

Better listen to BJ Thomas then you know raindrops keep falling on my head

[@gamezz217]

It really hit our house 🏠 😅

[@FelicityRose_]

At my house it is just raining reaaaaaaally hard but I did hear thunder and huge,load and massive rumbles and n hail and I did have lightning ⚡️

[@martinmunnelly5532]

So are we scared of the sun or rain and do i hide in the cupboard when the thunder comes 🤔

[@_J.F_]

What happened to those predicted thunderstorms? Not a single drop of rain so far and no view to any all day long either.

[@SaltyMaltyMo]

Big thunderstorms with heavy rain in Cardiff right now.

[@janskeet1382]

You need to book your thunderstorm. There is a fee and no guarantee. We booked one and then found a guy going around the estate with a flashgun and a big sheet of wriggly tin. Check your URL. There are some fake thunderstorm booking sites out there. ⛈️

[@lynnballington8467]

Hello now are you thank you Kathryn best wishes take care stay safe from Lynn x ❤😅😅

[@paganphil100]

So....thunder storms "could contain thunder and lightning". Interesting.

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

I think I`ve seen one weather forecast over the past 30 years ( so I`ve seen hundreds if not thousands of them ) where London is not predicted to have a higher temperature than anywhere else in the country. It`s just not credible - without mentioning the volume of spent hydrocarbons in the air ( which would make London a less attractive place to be in or live in).

[@kennyrodg]

Wasn't Summer great this year

Hello Met office uk weather

[@hernandotorres1234]

Very warm again? Clearly never been to Bradford 😂😂😂

[@chrish7975]

It's warm.. not VERY warm.

[@JANGLEPOP1]

And now 24 degrees has to have a bright orange colour....gaslighting!

[@Mykst]

@@JANGLEPOP1 24 degrees is well above the seasonal average for *May* - that's considerably warm for the time of the year don't you think? Also we associate blue with cold just like we associate red with hot, it's nothing new.

[@sparkyn69]

well you got that wrong

[@Mykst]

The thunderstorms are happening precisely as predicted.

[@sparkyn69]

@@Mykst not here, had a weather warning and nothing in my area

[@Mykst]

@@sparkyn69 Being within the warning area doesn't guarantee that you'll see a storm, it just means you are in an area of increased risk. The warning areas cover more than just your local area too and the storms happened elsewhere within that area. It's important you know the specifics before claiming something is wrong.

[@andrewtwinam8528]

Are these the same thunderstorms that we should have seen last bank holiday. Coz they never appeared so wonder why money is wasted on this as you're never right.

[@plantpotuniverse2242]

Thunder storms are very hard to predict, if you had any idea about how they form then you wouldn’t have written that comment. You are obviously just undereducated in that subject.

[@wafrikano]

Well how can the Midwest of America predict days in advance whether or not they have potential tornado forming thunderstorms... if the u.k had extreme weather or any weather apart from rain then we'd be alot better at predictions... 😂😂😂😂

[@MissileGuidance]

Your comment is a waste of my electric bill

[@ratinatrap7815]

@@wafrikano It's much easy to predict weather over large land masses. :-)

[@Beneaththebrittlesurface]

They don't want you to go out n enjoy the day.. ignore them and do the opposite..
