Lightning and thunder sweeps through Burnham-On-Sea

Lightning bolts sizzled over Burnham-On-Sea on Thursday evening (June 25th) as an electric summer storm gave the town a drenching.

Burnham-On-Sea.com took this stunning image of one fork lightning strike above the town's pier as crashes of thunder boomed overhead.

Heavy torrents of rain also led to difficult driving conditions for motorists for around 20 minutes as the storm moved over at around 8pm.

Further storms are forecast over the coming hours, with the Met Office issuing a severe weather warning for the South West.
