The city’s recently sunny weather was followed by loud thunder and blinding lightning today – we present a few tempestuous snapshots uploaded by locals.

We love Instagram posts that capture incredible moments around Budapest, and stormy weather often provides impressive visuals, providing us with silver linings to the gray clouds that were hovering over Budapest all day.

Considering that it was sunshiny and warm across the Magyar metropolis up until yesterday, the weather today could be thought of as the first summer storm of 2016... regardless, enjoy this collection of Budapest storm photos uploaded by Budapest locals!
