    This was around 1am - it woke us up, so i decided to video even though i was literally half asleep, so excuse the poor camera work and lack lustre commentary! I really wasn't expecting a storm!

    I think i remember this storm as stayed up to watch it coming as i was tracking it. I knew it was getting closer when the lightning became more frequent and the wind picked up. It threw it down after that.

    EDIT: Also at 1am.

    Beautiful!!! I Love stormy skies. 😉I just watched Vivi's recently uploaded video and she mentions you Richard as the person behind the camera of those Amazingly taken photos of our heavens that I have seen on your facebook page.
    I just recently became a subscriber so I'm new to your and Paul's channel, from there I then went to see how long your channel had been around and of course from there to facebook. I was really taken back by your sky photos they are really Beautiful!!
    I'm no poet so of course words fail me to properly do them justice in praising them, your work and talent. So I will not even attempt it, but know I Love it and will go over to facebook and admire it. 😉
    Thank you both for sharing your talents and knowledge in the garden much appreciated!

    11pm. I look out the window. Clear skies. 'Ah well...see what happens.'
    12am. Woke up, far too hot and sticky to stay asleep. Look outside, and see near constant lightning off in the distance. 'Oh yes...'
    Even more impressive than the near constant rumbling of thunder and the lightning, was the downpour that came with the storm. Haven't experienced rain that heavy in a very long time. That was monsoon level rain. Thanks for uploading this video, certainly was a lively couple of hours. 👍

    We had rain this morning. After a couple of days of low 30s C, it was finally cool enough to put on the dishwasher. Mine is a full sized portable, so the water goes in the sink.
    Great storm coverage! If I had to film it, I'd set the camera by the window, go pee, and crawl back in bed. With the abundance of freight trains going by, I can sleep through most things.

APP it's God fighting the devil according to people and that it's a warning that people should change now and pray and seek out to God
