Still going strong here. My highly sophisticated measuring device - a.k.a a ruler - shows almost 3 inches of snow. It's so heavy right now I can't see buildings that are 2 streets away.

It's really coming down here now. I ventured outside to take a couple of pictures.

Been snowing on and off here all evening. There's about an inch on the ground now.

Just a question about whether there is much thunderstorm activity in North Wales. I will be moving there very soon and am curious about the level of activity, especially on the coast.

All we have here now is some moderate rain, the thunder seems to have died away. Wish I was were you are!

Just starting to hear a few rumbles of thunder here. Raining again, but not as bad as yesterday.

Storm seems to be clearing away from here now, just a few rumbles in the distance. Rain isn't letting up much though.

Rain is really coming down here now. A few rumbles of thunder, too, and it's gone very dark in the past few minutes.

One more lurker here. The programme was interesting and raised some good points, but I have to say that in all honesty I don't really know one way or the other what is causing climate change. The thing that really got to me about the programme was that it felt like they were villifying anyone who took steps to reduce their impact on the environment, saying that they have been practically brainwashed by propaganda. I don't understand this viewpoint at all. Okay, so their argument is that CO2 emmisions have nothing to do with climate change and that's fair enough, but taking action to reduce your impact on the local environment is something that everyone should do anyway, surely? I recycle because I don't want my waste to end up in landfill. I use public transport and walk more often because it reduces pollution. Inevitably fossil fuels are going to run out, so making investment into cheaper and cleaner sources of energy just seems like common sense, because otherwise, what will we do when the oil and gas are all gone?

Storm here as I write. Been going for about 10 minutes now.

Hmmm, since you closed todays one already I guess I'll have to put it here. Brief storm here at around 2pm. Some good lightning displays and loud thunder.

Storm here right now, been going for about 5 mins.

2 good storms in South east London were I was staying for the weekend. First one at about 3pm, second one at about 8Pm.

There was a storm last night here - from about 1am to about 3am. Some quite vivid lightning at times, but not much thunder.

3 storms here tonight. The first at about 7pm. Lot's of CC lightning, good loud thunder - lasted about 45 minutes. Second came in at about 8Pm, more of the same, didn't last as long as the first but was quite lively. 3rd hit at around 10.15pm, shortest of the lot, but with spectacular lightning flashing all around. I am a happy bunny

Storm here between 6pm and 7.30pm. Mostly loud thunder; a few lightning strikes but nothing very dramatic.

Some loud thunder happening here atm.

Quite cloudy, but some sunshine. Temperature now is 25.5C No idea what the humidity is, but I'm guessing it's pretty high (feels it!)

Thank you
