Huh? There’s no rain until the 7 August apart from possibly a couple of showers tomorrow. Temps around 25 every day.
-
M20 is full Op Brock + Stack now no coast bound traffic Leeds Castle and junction 12
-
There was a whole area of rain showing from Brighton toward South London. It moved eastward and the bottom half just disappeared leaving rain for you, Maidstone, Faversham. I was in Dungeness, drove back to Ashford… nothing but dust and and brown grass. Now the sun is out. Not complaining as I love summer and am not keen on rain normally but it is like a desert out there. It’s really as if someone picked up SE Kent and dumped it somewhere between LA and San Diego!

And once again… not a drop of rain in the Kent desert!

Yep and… no rain in the SE. -
Temps down to 18 degrees. No measurable rain so the East Kent desert continues to be in place. Nice light show though! Looking ahead, mid to high 20s in the reliable and FI. No rain other than trace amounts, even on the automated model-based apps. Distinct smell of smoke in the air this morning which adds to the last 48 hours reminding me of Southern California during a Santa Ana wind event.

Negative. 2x a couple of minutes of big drops. Not even got the ground wet. Car and garden furniture dry after a few minutes. A few flashes and rumbles. Temp stuck at 26 degrees at local WOW station.
-
Well that lasted 3 minutes and even the garden furniture is dry again. Nothing else coming east of a line Sheerness - Tenterden - Rye. Winds are westerly but all showers are moving almost S - N.
-
A few big raindrops but the ground is staying dry.
-
There will be those but I have seen first hand what a small piece of glass can do. I lived in California for a long time.
-
Or maybe just a piece of glass. Global warming for sure as we would not have these conditions otherwise. This feels like Santa Ana winds in LA.
-
Wow there are fires breaking out everywhere. 3 alone in Dartford and another on the A2. Trees on side of a road on fire in Ashford earlier and cars damaged. Scary stuff.

Nothing wrong with excited about extreme weather, that's one of the reasons we are here for. Getting excited about something doesn't translate into wishing harm on anyone. None of us can change the impacts of severe weather but that doesn't mean we can't be fascinated, excited or interested in it.

No rain coming mate...
-
Power cuts all over the UKPowernetworks area (SE + London). Two wild fires affecting and burning down houses (Dartford and Wennington). Disrupted water supplies in Kent. It's all normal
-
For some reason we are still rising. Temp was stuck around 36 for two hours but now up to 37.9 in the last 30 minutes. (Local WOW Station)
-
No words…

30 degree threshold breached at 8:10. Madness.
-
Local WOW station at 28.4 as of 5 minutes ago. Currently adding a degree every 20-30 minutes.
-
6am - 24 degrees

I know it will change at one point but every single rain event affecting the SE at day 6+ has vanished for the last few months by the time it gets to day 3, so I have my doubts…. This. 100%. has been the case for months. -
For what it's worth, we've just added a degree on the local WOW station after it had been hovering around 33.5 for the last two hours. If the same is happening at the 37+ locations we may just do it.
