Like I said to Dr Who, hit the big switch, the met office probably would'nt know the difference between your thunder and the other kind !!
Some say a NOV is not necessary on this QRG. Ask them about a rock concert where the audio is transmitted for miles, whereas radio amateurs in most cases so far have only managed a few hundred metres in the same frequency range.
Acoustic or electromagnetic ether disturbance is virtually the same thing. Does the thunder generator licensee have a NOV?
Another point, a thunder storm and associated lightening can be heard/seen for miles by ear why does the met office need an electormagnetic detector.
This is a humorous observation.

Subject: LF: Sub-9kHz NoV progress
This evening I chased Rod Wilkinson at OFCOM about my sub-9kHz NoV application submitted in March. The last time I contacted him in May he said the matter was still waiting on a response from the Met Office and that it had been discussed at an RSGB liaison meeting.
I hope the Met Office can predict the weather quicker or it's back to seaweed when the austerity cuts arrive. Actually this isn't a bad idea.......
