Storms ever nearer

Currently, there are violent storms over North London and East Midlands, and they are moving towards us in East Anglia. Not sure of the pace yet, but looks like we could have storms within hours. For now, I shall keep antennas disconnected and the PSU disconnected from the mains, just in case. 10m and 6m can wait. Or I  may use an indoor wire loop instead?

Hello Roger,
quoted from a book I have here : "In general, thunder from ground flashes cannot be heard beyond 5 km. Thunder from cloud flashes is seldom heard beyond 25 km".

73, from Thierry.
