STORM HITS BLACKPOOL! After all the hot weather, sheet and fork lightning caught on camera. ⚡⚡

[@robbieelliottoutandabout1103]

Afternoon everyone, A little update for you all! Last night unfortunately the pub and the telephone line was struck by lightning. This caused us to loose all power and cause some minor damage upstairs to the building. All guest and staff are safe and well. However we have not been able to get any power back to the building. We are working hard to try and get this sorted and going to try and open for tomorrow tea time but all depends how quick we get power back to the building. Thanks again for your support and kind words.

[@CarolineJamesVlogs]

Thanks for the confirmation on that one, glad no one was hurt x

[@irenemilligan3794]

Awesome thanks for filming. I love the smell of the roads after it has been dry for along time and then rains.

[@Cockermadman]

Well done Caroline a perfect shot of the fork lightning .

[@hazelmanship7516]

Wow that lightening great catch Caroline, had no rain here Sheffield as yet its very warm here just now we may get rain late afternoon. I'm going to forward on to my son he loves a good storm,they always watch them I'm not a fan, thanks for sharing, hope you got home safe take care 😊

Brilliant show Caroline I love a good storm x

Great show Caroline 👍🏻☀️😎☔️

Another amazing thunderstorm video, I even found myself saying wow the same time as you were. Thunderstorms have been a bit thin on the ground here in London this summer so I come on You Tube to get my thunderstorm fix. The last really good thunderstorm I remember here in North London was October 23rd last year and it was a cracker. There's even videos on You Tube showing how bad it was. Love a good storm.

[@PeterMackett]

We got some rain here today in Bournemouth but have missed all the thunderstorms so far, i do like watching a good lightning storm!

No rain yet in north Dorset, cloudy all day but dry as a bone

[@KJames2345]

It hit 32c in the East Midlands before we had a good storm yesterday afternoon, with golfball size hail across my part of Leicestershire, constant rumble of thunder for about hour, rain was refreshing sat outside under the pergola. I really enjoy a good thunderstorm.

[@CarolineJamesVlogs]

Omg that would have been amazing to watch. I love storms 😍

[@KBGameOver]

Over here in Plymouth just had rain, would love to have a big thunderstorm like that at least, love the footage Caroline.

28C to 29C is unbeatably hot for you! In Australia, it's mild at 35C during summer. It's starts getting hot at 45C.

[@CarolineJamesVlogs]

Yeah I know lol, and I hate being hot. I wouldn't cope in those temperatures, no hot country holidays for me I am happy in winter lol 😆

Because it's always humid as hell which makes it far worse, also 7 months of the year it's pretty much in the minuses

Excellent video of the lightening and thunder. Where I'm from, we were meant to get a storm but it never happened 😢😢. I used to be scared of them, but I can sit and watch one now.

[@stephenkelly1887]

The most spectacular lightning storm i have ever seen was when i was working on Central pier in 2000. We had to run up and down telling people to put their brollies down. Some of them got really antsy.

[@anthonypope8429]

I'll admit it - I'm jealous! but.. I only like daytime storms. I have yet to conquer my nighttime fear of storms. there is a trail of bodies because my natural instinct if woken by a storm, is to tunnel. unfortunately, under whoever was in bed beside me to the point where they end up on the floor and wake up. I usually have little recollection I've done it 😛 and I have a pile of pillows on the bed now (single life thing) to tunnel under if there's a night storm, and womb like conditions in the bedroom with thick curtains that let very little light in - perfect for those night storms - if I can hear it and not see it, it's not happening 🤣and I have my little radio beside me listening in for the squeals. one nighttime storm, as I was tuning the radio, it picked up two people talking about the storm - one woman telling the other it's headed her way and the other acknowledging it - even describing where the lightning was! my inner 9 year old self hates storms and would rather hide in a wardrobe or cupboard with a pile of comics, a torch, the cat and a pack of bourbon biscuits. the cat would always escape, and I'd be sitting with my fingers in my ears with the torch shining on a copy of that weeks 'Beano'. my old-as-hell self has mellowed a little. I like to record audio/video if it's truly local. I won't go outside in a storm and I am literally armed to the teeth with gear for that purpose. and because I've got a decent amount of new-to-me gear, the lack of storms is frustrating. my neighbour is in Birmingham this weekend - glad I got to him with the weather forecast before he found out the hard way! 🤣

Commentary: less is more.

[@moxiesaint-clare4257]

For those of you who did not pay attention in school. There is no such thing as 'sheet' lightning. What you are seeing is regular lightning that is obscured but still lights up the sky. The only other form of lightning is 'Ball' lightning, But this is incredibly rare.
