Ach, all gone to pot here, everything dying around us, just left with some moderate rain nearby with any heavier showers now south of the Humber and well away from here. I doubt they'll last much longer.

It promised so much as well!

Still only a couple more years and hopefully I'll be out of this country! :lol:

Anyone in S Wales got Thunder? A decent thunderstorm has just passed to my south of Swansea, heading towards Swansea Airport and Gower now. Saw some decent cloud to ground lightning and some very loud rumbles from it.

If you look at the wind data, theres a convergence line running from the west country all the way upto the wash. It's starting to have an effect now that temps have risen sufficiently to get good convection going. This area is where we'll see the biggest storms developing through this evening and lasting into the early hours, only slowly pulling away to the SE as the low moves towards france.

Agree :lol: No Pics then No Funnel Clouds I am afraid.

I am hoping the CZ Line keep going until this evening and extends across to E Anglia, then I can take a trip North to try for some Lightning.

Am about 0.01% Confidant of this happening :lol:
