Got to a toasty -0.7 earlier. Currently -2.2 but gone up .5 a degree in the last 45 min. Was hoping to record an ice day but not sure it will make it. Been so pretty today with the frost but couldn't see the other side of the valley for most of it.

View from Stroud of the monster on the Welsh border Fantastic display!

Epic, crazy and incredible. Spawned from nothing to a beast in 5 min. Continuous thunder, large hail for a good 20min and weather station recorded 98.8mm of rain. That's not counting the hail that bounced out as it was full. Never seen anything like it! Bit of a clean up job now. Water was coming through the front door and in the kitchen. A lot of Stroud is in a bad state. This is my mates house. Really bad on horns road VID-20230612-WA0009.mp4

@SilverWolf @MrNooo don't know if I'm imagining it but can you hear very distant thunder every so often? Almost feel it rumbling rather than hear. Very odd. If so that's pretty amazing.

First rumbles of thunder over Gloucester way.

First rain in 30 days! Big drops too developed really quickly. Looks like it could start getting lively around here. Very humid and around 28°C

Finally some proper Auroras! The cloud cleared just in time to

From years of trying to capture anything from southern central England I'm really happy with it. About an hour ago lucky break in the clouds. Check out the shetland webcam going crazy there https://www.shetlandwebcams.com/cliff-cam/

Not the best photo but had red Auroras over Stroud. Too much cloud cover for anything decent.
