All stopped now, but distant thunder. I suspect here in NW London we will be too far east for any remaining action this afternoon (which tallies with the warning update). Still, if proven right several more days of potential storm activity to come !
-
Distant rumbling in Harrow. Storms developing to the south and west of us. Hopefully more crop up further east as the afternoon goes on
-
On the edge of the storm centred over Hayes / Heathrow. Thunder seems to have stopped now.

34.7c now, not a cloud in sight. Record here is 38.0c last year. Small chance we'll break it..?

17.2c please

I can do cool, rain and cloud, but i can't stand the wind. Nightmare for the garden (especially the hanging baskets! ) Looks like it may settle down as the week into following progresses.

11.9c please

Slight upgrade on the 6z, ,if its sunshine and warmth you are after (especially the further SE you are). Strong chance of 20c being broken between Tuesday and Saturday. Good week for staying in the garden!

Because the high pressure is holding ground instead of retrogressing. The cold plunge gets deflected into western Europe.
And good riddance! Much prefer for something a little warmer as we head into April (especially as we are stuck in our houses!), which the GFS suggests towards the end of the run. ECM looks like it would deliver something similar

Could have been tube delays. This was Baker Street albeit at 9am. You would still expect it to be quite busy

Bear in mind not confirmed yet but apparently along the lines of being forced to stay home for 5 weeks . Only allowed to leave home for one shopping visit each day . Any other movements for anything else forbidden but how can they enforce this .
What are they going to do ? How will they tell if people have gone out more than that .
I saw on the guardian that French sources had denied this. Not long until we find out!

Well the holiday to Morocco is off! The FCO advice against all essential travel is growing by the day. I never thought I'd see the day that we advise against travel to the US, Spain and Italy!

Good explanation of current strategy

Supposed UK measures in the coming weeks
- the forced requisitioning of hotels and other buildings as temporary hospitals;
- the requisitioning of private hospitals as emergency hospitals;
- temporary closure of pubs, bars and restaurants - some time after next weekend's ban on mass gatherings;
- emergency manufacture by several companies of respirators that would be necessary to keep alive those who become acutely ill;
- the closure of schools for perhaps a few weeks, but with skeleton staff kept on to provide childcare for key workers in the NHS and police.
Elderly could be quarantined for four months in 'wartime-style' mobilisation to combat coronavirus, writes Robert Peston

Lot of planes currently taking off and landing in Spain. Obviously plenty over flying.
Will be interesting to see how this changes once the travel bans stick in

Now Latvia closes its borders (from Tuesday). Also went to our local Budgens. No garlic bread but everything else in stock!
-
Norway becomes the next European country to close its borders. I wonder what airline will be next to collapse?

No delivery slots on Sainsburys or Tesco for the next two weeks in our area!

Would you really want to risk it anyway now though?
At the moment, yes - I think my chances of getting it on the tube are probably greater.

So i can hear some distant rumbling, although i have a feeling its going to skirt south and west of Harrow (especially as i just covered the table). @Uxbridge90 hopefully look good for you further west of me!
