I just said earlier today.. "Hmmm.. it seems like ages since we've had a good thunder & lightning storm" and now.. I'm watching the most amazing light show from the comfort of my bedroom window! I'm not a huge fan of these storms, but as long as I'm inside and not alone, i'm OK. Ha Ha HA!

Anyone else up watching it?

No rain here in Oroklini yet..

I remember the most amazing storm a few years back mid-October.

We were coming back from Peyia over the mountains and Polis was in the far distance down below. The most incredible powerful bolts of lightning were shooting down ahead of us and into the sea. It was really dark with only the intermittent bolts of lightning lighting up the silhouetted landscape. The thunderbolts boomed around us, almost making us swerve with the force. We just had to keep driving into the storm in our open top jeep. Awesome experience.

Cyprus does it best

My sister is here in the UK visiting, and would like to know if it is raining in Paphos, or to be specific in Giolou She is due to fly back on Sunday, she has been moaning about the weather here and was hoping to return to sunshine

Just a shower in areas of Paphos, fantastic lightning show, as per usual for Cyprus!

You have to be talking about spet/oct 2005! That was my first year in Cyprus, I was watching it from my apartment on the 3rd floor, it lit up the whole sky, for hours upon hours, it was amazing!

However, I did get scared because the lightening was very low and I kept thinking it was going to hit my apartment. I'm a scardy cat at heart

This was last year's storms, just before they started;
