I just heard some rumbling thunder in the distance a few minutes ago.If it gets any nearer I think I'll switch off my PC just in case.It's better to be safe than sorry.
Haven't heard it yet as I'm typing this,so I'll stay on AB for a little while longer.

It's lightning and thundering quite loud now,so I'm going to switch off my PC any minute before something else sparks!
Blimey, i just heard a loud roar of thunder.
