AL.

Come to sunny Swindon!

Hope the paper holds and you don't shake the babys arm!

Where are the bulk of these storms going to come from? Will it be from the cold front from the west against this humid air we have now?

I was under that lot yesterday afternoon!

Well Swindon certainly got it's storm yesterday afternoon! I watched the storm come ashore just to the west of Weymouth and travel NNE towards my location building in size as it travelled, I had a spare couple of hours so drove to intercept it in Devizes Wiltshire. After it had arrived there I made my way back towards Avebury Wiltshire where conditions got very nasty, overhead lightning and flash flooding! The roads were horrendous so I decided to take refuge in the Red Lion pub car park as the car park is elevated, one of the best storms in our area for a while. I hope some of you got a taste of it as it continued NE.

Good luck, I'm in Swindon and hoping the south coast storm will steer NE which will bring it here!!

Swindon currently 24C, with heat building every day and not a lot of cooling during the evening I'm sure there's going to be some big storms about soon.

Cloudless sky and 22c at 10.30 here in Swindon.

We had that big blob of rain that affected Pilton pass over Swindon, nothing stormy but a welcome drink for my garden.

Hottest = 43c gas station near Phoenix Arizona last year. Coldest = -12c Swindon.
