We are having the most amazing storm at the moment. An hour ago incredible white clouds started rolling in across the Channel in a great sausage, literally speeding across the sky as we watched - followed by great black ones, and pinky grey ragged ones and high winds. Then a lull period, and now we're having the full thunder-and-lightning - I wish I could see the sea from our house!

Someone has posted a pic on Twitter, from Brands Hatch - it looks like the scenes in Independence Day where the UFOs burst through the clouds!

Hope you're OK boxy.

We're in Dover, excel - right in the corner. I took some good pics, surprising as the cloud moved so fast. Exactly Stephen - it was just like that! I'm fine - I love a good storm!
