I don’t mind the odd washout day, quite nice for sticking on a film and pigging out but tomorrow should be far less rainy; with a few brighter spells thrown in no sign of oppressive heat too which I’m happy about, anything below 25c suits me nicely any ideas on rainfall amounts in the area today? Must be 25-30mm. Not flooding levels by any means but plenty of heavier bursts. also, went to see Oppenheimer this eve. Well worth a watch; brilliant film

Haha that’s the city my girlfriend is from! Funny how many people I hear that reference it when they mention Slovakia. A gateway to the mountains but I’ve been once in December and there was a nice amount of snow in the north. Far more than Bratislava got at the same time. I always expect the summer temperatures to be a few degrees higher than the midlands on average but it can really vary depending on the synoptic setup. A euro high and everything heats up widely above 30c fairly readily. How long did it take you to learn slovak as I find it tough! We’ve been together over two years but I still find it pretty difficult

True, and the Danube has a certainly cooling effect in both cities. They both regularly exceed 30c though, far more than here. I’ve applied to a met job in Vienna though as I’m keen for a change! Have to say I think more of Vienna than I do Bratislava

Have you been over in Bratislava for long? My girlfriends home city but it’s pretty oppressive in the summer from experience

Yeah, I think the stuff currently on the south coast will fragment as it moves northwards and become more showery in nature, but it’ll bring more organised rain to parts of east anglia and the wash -

Had an intense shower here but no sferics. Looks like it’s all moving away to the north now -

A moderate shower fizzling out here with a few glimpses of brightness -
Well so it proved for birmingham at least, a far less active evening than yesterday. Still some nice interest for other areas though including that amazing cell that developed through Sandwell in towards Wolverhampton. A few flashes here but very little precip today; but glad others got a nice event

haha high above the o2! similar to me, a few miles to the south, nicely brightened up now, for now.... -
Anyone in birmingham record the rainfall totals from yday? certainly looked like north warks was the sweet spot for flashes from what ive seen. Ourselves north through much of Staffs saw some fun too. But id assume there was well over an inch here? Fingers xd for more fun today although its so random with convection anywhere in central/southern england could see the fun!

Some pretty hefty rainfall totals in south bham of late i suspect. Had an hour or so or rain this morning and another organised pulse heading in across the marches i should think for this afternoon. Actually relishing some dry weather now from tomorrow! Hardly boiling i suspect but at least pleasant

Bleurgh! Im done with Winter now! Lets hope the next one delivers as always. The tease we had a couple of weeks back has been succeeded by plenty of rain (but still not enough in the grand scheme to replenish river levels) and glimpses of mid teens when the sun has been out this week, but the thought of single figures again this March, personally i think im done now. Just my opinion of course!
