    It was quite something, looking south over Heathrow. So dark, so early. Thw sunset afterwards was genuinely breathtakingly gorgeous. Sky on fire.
    And now looking at an Indian summer coming. Crazy times

    This was chaotic! I was actually inbound into Heathrow from my flight from Frankfurt at the time. We had to stay in the air and make lots of loops before finally arriving into Heathrow where it was pouring down heavily and the visibility was very low. It was crazy but managed to land just fine 😮‍💨

    Wonderful video Richard. You do gets some ferocious storms don’t you. I was watching Big Jet TV earlier and Jerry the owner commentator was standing out in the storm throughout it….incredible to watch storms like this moving through an area. Thank you for this. I love weather and actually found your channel when you had posted an incredible storm video a few years ago. This was fantastic. The dark, ominous clouds and lightning, thunder you captured were amazing. I have read lightening is more frequent now and not just the sky to ground type but ground lightning to cloud is increasing as well

    Wow, I love watching these kinds of storms roll in. It almost looked like it wanted to turn into a tornado when I saw how black and dark the clouds were as they moved in. So glad it wasn't any worse than this for you! I so enjoy watching these kinds of videos. Thank you!!

I froze the frame with some of the lightning strikes...so awesome. And, I was thinking when I saw the sun setting, that you might have a nice rainbow! Thank you for sharing that lovely storm.

    WOW ! I do LOVE a good storm. As child we visited family living on a ranch, their house had a tin roof. The sound of rain on that roof has stuck with me my life so far. Today I live in an old OLD house with a Slate roof, that's lovely when it storms, three stories up, windows, sounds, no lights in the attic. Quite the experience 💞. Thoroughly enjoy all you bring to us. Especially Love how you are together.
    Thank You For Being YOU❤️

    Incredible footage. I've never seen a storm before with dark clouds being so frightening and beautiful all at once, and where the storm flashes fiercely and roars gently. And to top it all off, you caught a breathtaking sunset. What a treat.
    If I may ask, what kind of cameras do you use? I want to capture video and stills as beautifully as you do.

    @TheSpottedBoot Před rokem

    I love thunderstorms! Have since I was a child. I always count after seeing a lightning strike 1,2 3 4 5⚡crack! I heard its a mile away for every second you count between the flash and the thunderstorm's clap is how far the lightning strike is from you. So 5 miles is 5 seconds. No idea if it's true, but to this day i still count ☺

    • @RichardandPaul

    You guys definitely got a grandstand view of this storm. Those twin bolts of lightning at 3:06 were incredible.
    This same storm went on to slam my location here in Hertfordshire. Can honestly say I cannot remember more frequent or intense lightning, torrential rain or wind as this thunderstorm. And it came from seemingly nowhere. Half hour before it was overcast but calm. Just blew up suddenly. The fact this all happened in late October just makes it even more bizarre.
    Almost convinced this was a supercell storm. This may be a fairly regular occurrence in America but for Britain it was phenomenal.
