Based on the IOW reports, seems like the MetO hit it right on, but not for the local area from the local rag... A YELLOW weather warning has been issued for heavy showers, torrential downpours and thunderstorms may cause travel disruption and some flooding. The Met Office issued a yellow warning for torrential downpours and thunderstorms just after 9.30am today until 11pm. Homes and businesses have been warned there may be disruption to travel today and this evening with possible delays to public transport. The Met Office has said there is a slight chance that power cuts could occur and other services to some homes and businesses could be lost. Yellow weather warning issued

You certainly got lucky it cruised past to the north of us and dropped 30 drops of rain and that was it -

Nice dip, down here on the coast much less pronounced, of course the wind speeds were a lot less too -

I'm still perplexed as to why naming as storm makes it any worse than not naming a storm. Of course the MetO are covering their @@rse against any possible claims of not being informed, but really apart from folks in tents AND some folks in Cornwall did this REALLY warrant naming? Seems to me every little hiccup these days means the MetO cover their butt and name some a storm, considering neither Ireland or France got their first I bet their happen with their coverage. We had 4mm of rain and 24mph winds, a storm really..I've seen a lot worse in Autumn than that.. -
Hmm, (so far) a bit of a storm in a teacup, norra lot of rainfall, and the wind more blustery than damaging (unless you are in a tent, granted). Current maximum gusts over the last 24 hours A fair bit of white horses to be seen down on the beach Meanwhile, the overnight low of 12.3°C at: 03:51 has crept slowly up to 13.8°C, with RH89% and peak gust here 23.0 mph at: 08:19 with the rain amounting to 4.2mm. As pressure continues to fall as the low moves east expecting a possible increase in wind strength and a change of direction, current atmospheric info shows Spin that puppy

That's winding itself up tight, could be an "interesting" weather night as it crosses the SofE The low last night the coolest for a while with 11.9°C at: 06:10, currently 13.9°C with RH84% Sea conditions have calmed from yesterday, in readiness for some action tonight, could be an interesting view first thing in the morning..

Monday 2 Aug - Wednesday 11 Aug Changeable conditions continuing to dominate for the start of August, with a mixture of sunny and dry periods, showery periods and the chance of longer spells of rain. At first the south is likely to see the most showers, with the north remaining the driest, but by the end of the period the south and southeast will possibly be the driest and the west and northwest the wettest. There remains a chance for any showers or rain to produce thunderstorms. Temperatures are most likely cooler than average for this time of year, trending to slightly cooler than average or average through the period, with the south and southwest having the best chance of seeing average temperatures. Thursday 12 Aug - Thursday 26 Aug As is typical for this time of year, confidence is low for this period. However, there is a tentative sign of more settled conditions developing with higher pressure becoming slightly more likely. This means drier conditions may become more prevalent, although there is still the risk of showers or thunderstorms at times. Temperatures likely to trend to above average, with an increasing chance of hotter spells developing as the month progresses. https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/
