Just been out in the rain for 2 minutes- it's still coming down and I thought it had suddenly gone cooler. I wasn't just imagining it- went down from 20C to 16C in an hour just up the road at Shawbury

I wonder what caused this? We didn't get such a drop from the front yesterday.

[Kent Snow]

15.1C, rain, wind from the NW.

A grey and rainy day.

[MP-R]

Narrowly missed a potentially torrential downpour.

I was sitting at my laptop just doing my normal stuff when I heard a huge 'Wow' said by some kids in the street. I looked out and I could see the biggest downpour - possibly a microburst since the 11th January 2004. I chased after it and looked down a moor road and literally yards away, was the edge of the downdraught. However, where I stood, one spot of rain hit my nose. I'll post a photograph.

[MP-R]

Here's the beastie I photographed whilst on the moors. I had to rush home to make sure it didn't deluge on me.

As I type, the downpour has actually started up and it's BUCKETING down with rain and I think there's a bit of hail mixed in.

Report for Friday 19th August 2005, Readings taken at 23:55.

After a thoroughly wet night the morning started off overcast but dry. It was by the afternoon before the cloud started to break a little, allowing some hazy sunshine. The remainder of the afternoon and the evening have seen mostly cloudy skies, with occasional sunny spells. It remained below 16°C for almost the entire day, only reaching the maximum late on during a sunny spell. Nevertheless, it was a cool day and quite a contrast from yesterday. Despite this, it felt quite uncomfortable, mainly due to much higher humidity compared to the past few days.

Current Temp: 14.6°C

Max Temp: 19.1°C (at 16:56)

Min Temp: 14.6°C (Current)

Humidity: 74%

Min Humidity: 66% (at 17:48)

Pressure: 1016.4hPa (Rising)

Dewpoint: 10.0°C

Wind: NW (2mph)

Rain Today: 5.1mm

My August average currently stands at 17.0°C (+0.6°C Above the 1971-2000 average).
