What a night. The first storm cluster passed us in about 25km distance.

The second one hit us right in the face. The sky was constantly flashing and there was a continuous rumble, not individual thunder. (You can’t really hear it in the video, I was too close to the window …)

Most of the lightning was inside the clouds, apparently.

No water damage this time, luckily.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de At least that looks really cool! We didn’t get any thunderstorm at all.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org You didn’t?! Wow, I could have sworn I saw several storms in your area in the storm tracker. Guess I was wrong. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Sure, they were forecast, but they never actually arrived here. :-)

Would you guys like some Beryl?

“Late Monday, Beryl became the earliest storm to develop into a Category 5 hurricane in the Atlantic and peaked at winds of 165 mph (270 kph) Tuesday before weakening to a still-destructive Category 4…”

@bender@twtxt.net Nope! Thank you very much. Nope! 😂

@bender@twtxt.net I cannot accept that kind gift! :-D I enjoy the drizzle at 12°C.
