No, surely not again!!!
"Keith (Southend)" wrote Dave, the rain didn't really amount to much
3.8mm, I imagine
Shoeburyness had more as the storm seemed to be to me east.
Looking at it all last night, Keith, I had you down as right under the main
storm. We did get heavy rain and overhead lightning, at times, but the main
event, which appeared to last a couple of hours, moved past to the east of
us. For much of that time I had a good view of the distant lightning, just
above the horizon
Found out from this morning's news that a house close to the village was hit
by lightning and the roof set on fire. I'd heard the fire engines around
22.00 hrs, as they went by. The householders, apparently, are away on
holiday!
