More showers developing around here, wonder if I can be lucky and catch my second one today, certainly seems possible as more towering clouds build to the west.
-
Just had a storm in Leeds, CG lightning, monsoon-like rain, loud thunder, gusty winds, absolute madness, the streets were completely flooded

Wow, today could be my lucky day, all those charts put me in a good position for once this year! (don't want to jinx it, though

Overall, it was a cooler than average month, particularly the mean minimum temperature. It was, however, drier than average. A lack of thunderstorms too, not just July but the entirety of 2011.

Being cloudy doesn't stop you from going outside and enjoying the warm weather. It's been very pleasant during the day but nights have been extremely uncomfortable. Temperatures here being between 23 - 25c, not really a heatwave but quite warm nonetheless.
-
Ah, I am reffering to May/June when the temperatures were much cooler. Tomorrow might be better for me regardless of the wind direction!
I do actually remember May 2004, there was a large thunderstorm in the night, everyone was talking about it at work the day after! Ah, those were the days..

Tony from UKWW keeping things only for the East tomorrow but UKASF bringing the threat to more Central areas also. I think UKASF are closer to the mark so far especially given the more varied models this evening and gives scope for further potential changes.
UKASF storm forecast looking very good for all central and eastern areas of England, even some Pennine areas and west of the Pennines are in the main risk area. It'll probably change more tomorrow though.

I hope winter is brutally cold. Obviously we're a long way away from October let alone January, but summer in the UK is so depressing.
-
Tomorrow might be better for me. Hopefully the wind will switch to a more southerly/south easterly direction, when we do best for our storms. Here's hoping
-
We had two thundery showers, with some thunder and lightning, but no thunderstorms. We keep missing by a few miles, SO FRUSTRATING! We are the most awkwardly positioned place it seems especially in westerly winds, the storms fizzle above us due to the pennines, but re-intensify further east.
-
Every single month here except February has been below-average.. I really cannot see us getting that much rain unless we get a storm tomorrow.
-
BBC going for heavy showers and/or thunderstorms, primarily for East Anglia, the Midlands and North East England, knowing this area we'll miss out.
However.. the wind is forecast to be from the south-east which is when we do best for storms (last decent storm here being 15 June 2009, which came from the east).
-
A thunderstorm passed to my east, to York, missed by a few miles yet again, what a terrible year for thunder this has been!
-
Another overcast day today.. the BBC forecast is looking increasingly poor for this area.. all this hype of a settled spell.. and the bulk of eastern England seems to be missing out
-
As Cheese said, globally the earth is warming, but what relevance does this have to us when our summers and winters are getting cooler.. very little.
-
Ah, right. Thanks
-
This summer has been average here. June was bang on average in all aspects, 5 days above 25c and 1 day above 30c (reached 31c, highest since that very hot month July 2006). July has been pretty rotten in the past week or two but that does not equal a poor summer. Obviously things have been a lot worse in Scotland and north-west England but when I see southerners complaining just because the temperatures aren't soaring above 30C really annoys me, this is Britain remember!
Anyway, don't worry, winter will soon be hereA lovely day here by the way
