- On August 11th 2020, after a bakingly hot day, we were treated to the most spectacular and intense thunderstorm I have ever seen in the UK in my life! shooting with the camera of my smart phone does not really do it justice. There were times I had to put the phone away and get into cover due to the intensity of the hail and rain and the almost continuous lightning. Some of the thunder was ear-splitting in volume. If you enjoy thunderstorm videos, I hope you enjoy this one. Back to audio content and specifically Studio One from now on!

I'm in the city centre, we got hit by four different direct bolts as it came right on top of us. One bolt literally scorched the cobbles at the top of our street. A tree was damaged but thankfully no loss of life as far as I knew, until the day after when a train derailed and crashed, killing four due to the huge deluge of rain causing landslides.
We didn't have a direct hit to our building but others did. They lost electricity.
I turned off and unplugged everything, was lit by candles and when those bolts hit? It was like having a floodlight shining straight through your window, our building shook and you couldn't hear the thunder as the lightening was so CCCCRRRCK loud.
After? The streets on both sides of our building were literally rivers from the deluge of water.
Car or Kayak?
I've never experienced that before and others who have lived here ages haven't either!
There were repair teams all up and down Cowgate the day after.
We were just thankful we didn't lose our electric! 😉
Kinda getting fed up of 2020 though now!
😔
I hope you have no damage and everything is safe.
Your video inspired me to dig out Weather Report's "Heavy Weather"(R.I.P. Joe, R.I.P. Jacko).
No DAW, 'handplayed' ... those were the times ...
This storm covered the whole country it’s took me 4 years to find this
After this storm all changed in the world
CERN
Actually the last time we had a storm like that, I think I was about 9 years old, 30 years ago, and I watched it 2 streets down from where you are.
i was there and my neighbours house and my car was struck by lightning, that was one of the scariest nights of my life
WOW!! That sounds intense and terrifying!
Could have done without the first 2 minutes!
Then you should check Medellin in Colombia (10-20 deaths per year due to lighting impacts), Miami or check the Catatumbo's electric phenomenon to see overwhelming electric activity...
I don't doubt it. However, context, as ever, is king. For us in Edinburgh, Scotland UK, this was an amazing storm. And, yes: people DID die. People's property WAS damaged. Different country: different scale.
@@JonnyLipshamStudios Check it out, this is amazing! th-cam.com/video/Vcgapgrqf4w/w-d-xo.html
@@JonnyLipshamStudios By the way I live in Edinburgh as well, and knowing the fact electric activity is very rare here it was very strong (under this region's context) - I did not know people died yesterday because of the storm!
