Default Folkestone... !!!!

Just come out the other side of the most extreme storm I have yet seen.
8pm to 9pm BST. Nearly continuous lightning. Looked like an erratic strobe
light. Averaging more than once a second. And RAIN!!!


It was amazing in Folkestone - I too was there. Had to be out in it :-)
Anyone got any historical data showing what the peak strike rate for
Folkestone was ? Must have been very high. It appeared to be constant
lightning at one point.
