    big flash and thunder here twice in D7. Counted 6 seconds, that 2k right?. The flash came from city centre direction. So it's right over the city centre it seems.

    I hear Thunder, I hear Thunder,

    Pitter-Patter raindrops
    I’m wet through,
    I’m wet through

    One here, about 1km away. Very odd sound, like a series of sharp smaller explosions.

    Lightning distance calculator : http://easycalculation.com/weather/lightning.php

    6 seconds = 1.3 miles

    3 seconds per km is easier.
