I'm sure I'm hearing rumbles from the towers that are going up to my south. I have that stormy feeling - goosebumps and a headache! Spent three hours in the gym keeping cool haha!

Yes but theres more to England than just South Ockendon my sweet.
I think in fairness it was just an answer to the question which was did anyone get close to 35 degrees in the end? And yes I am a fellow South Ockendonite haha!

Well the rain has stopped in South Ockendon and the sun is making an appearance! its feeling very muggy, hopefully a sign of things to come later!

Good morning everyone! Well the wind in Thurrock is strong enough to shut the QE2 bridge leading to the usual traffic chaos around where I live! It’s an absolute nightmare around Lakeside anc the surrounding areas!

Not a happy bunny.
Heavy snow causing disruption over in Kent, while here, less than 20 miles away on the other side of the Thames, just boring sleet as it has been pretty much all day.
And yet a bit further up in Ockendon it’s quite heavy am settling now too! Funny old world!

Steady snow falling now in South Ockendon and beginning to settle on some of the cars! Frustrating day today! I woke up to heavy snow settling in the early hours only to find it all gone by this morning and then rain all day! Let’s see what round two will bring then!

Temp slowly coming down, still raining here in Leigh, expecting some transition really soon, weather map saying snow in Basildon, anyone confirm?
Not sure about Basildon but it’s definitely snowing in Ockendon now, not that far away.

Evening everyone from South Ockendon where I’m pretty sure there are snowflakes coming down in the rain! It looks sleety to me! I have a lamp post directly outside my bedroom window!
-
It’s actually very warm in sunny south Ockendon at the moment with a pleasant breeze! My phone app says 24 degrees and I know that’s not accurate but it’s all I have to hand at present! It’s very nice anyway!

The sun has finally come out and the sky is filled with cumulus (fair weather) clouds.
Got caught in an extremely heavy shower at belhus that soaked us all to the skin. Driving back to Ockendon it seems dry? I wonder if it rained or has it just dried up already!

Rain, distant rumbles of thunder in Gravesham...
Already not happy about it all.
If you’re hearing thunder then maybe that is what I can hear just across the river in Thurrock.

Sitting on my garden swing chair here in South Ockendon enjoying the gentle pitter patter of raindrops falling around me! Still about 27 degrees and feeling very humid and straining my ears to hear very distant rumbles! Not sure if that last bit is my imagination but the sky is very heavy!
-
I don’t know if it’s just me but it feels very humid this morning after the rain and rumbles!

Better not chance it as when there's thunder, lightning is sure to follow. So I cannot stay online too long. I thinking I am hearing heavy rain but when I go out to the garden there is nothing.
There were one or two spots ........ I saw them I swear!

Hi Crazy, remind me whereabouts in Ockendon you are? Quite a few rumbles now and a few spots of rain! So oppressive too! My goosebumps are going crazy!

It is a cloudy day with very brief sunny intervals. Temperature in South Ockendon is 26 °C, with light winds 3 mph coming from a ESE direction . The visibility is good and the humidity is at 42%. The UV index is at 5 and the Pollen is count is at a medium level. The Barometric pressure is at 1024mb, and it is Falling. Although the humidity is at 42%, it feels very humid and very uncomfortable. I have the back door open and the electric fan on and I am still very warm.
Yes I just got back from walking absolutely dripping and my clothes stuck to my skin! There wasn’t much sun either. I also drank a whole bottle of water! I hate sticky weather!

Have just sweated my way through the housework which, unfortunately, needed doing! Now I have no energy left whatsoever! xx

Things are getting so desperate with the lack of rain in South Ockendon, I have even considered doing a rain dance to make it rain. Usually when the tennis/cricket season starts, is when we get the most rain but sadly not this year. The novelty of days of continuous sunshine, with no rain, hardly any clouds or wind has gone. Yes I too would love to see a few days of rain and so will my garden.
Shall we do a rain dance together in Derwent Parade? That should get some attention!
