Still raining steadily here - looking at the radar the frontal band seems to have become stuck in the same position over the last hour.

Rain, rain and more rain, it just wouldn't stop raining last night, rained from 4 pm to 6 am, cleared this morning but then frequent heavy showers moved in during today, cool too only 14C now after a recent shower, terrible weather, next weeks possible HP(not definate yet though) can't come soon enough the rest of the week esp weekend looks dreadful.

Nice day overall. A day where the cloud formations and radar are more impressive than that what falls from them. One light afternoon shower then back to sunshine.

Quite a transformation in the weather here; only 15 mins ago I was working

outside in the warm sunshine and now it's really wild with heavy showers and

gusty winds. :angry:

I'm being blinded by the sun!! What a strange feeling it is too. Noticable how low it's got since it dissapeared in July sometime with the dull August meant I haven't followed it's position much at all. Back to shutting the blinds in the afternoons again...

A sunshine & showers day here - clean sunshine followed by blustery showers. Max of 19.1c today.

The morning and afternoon saw further sunny spells, though there were some hefty showers in the area, but only light here. Rather breezy throughout.

Not been too bad a day here, some sunny spells in between the showers, some of which were very heavy especially the last one with thunder and lightning.

Sun has gone now to be replaced by a very heavy thunder storm. First one I've seen for a very long time- we usually miss them!

A dry morning with sunny spells. Showers developed by early afternoon but they all missed here and there were more sunny intervals. A thunderstorm developed to the south by late afternoon and moved east on a line about 20 miles or so south of here, we had no more than a short spell of light-moderate rain whilst to the south there was continuous thunder and what looked like torrential rain.

A few more light showers early this evening but nothing of any significance.

Dull and wet in Norwich till mid-afternoon, then it became sunny, then we had a line of cumulonimbus cells pass just to the north at 7pm, producing some rumbles of thunder and spectacular cloud formations.

It looked set to be a forgettable day but the end made up for it!
