Back home now. Got to the event, after 10 mins lightning followed by heavy rain. Event cancelled so we decamped to a friend's house to enjoy our picnic.rjb wrote: ↑18 Jun 2022, 5:11pm We are going out to an evening outdoor picnic and concert shortly on the Somerset levels. We have just been issued with a weather warning for Thunder and Lightning for Somerset. I've heard a few rumbles in the distance too. If I don't post again you will all know why.

The heavy rain which is still continuing was never forecast but the lightning has passed.
