Very heavy rain here in Weston. What a surprise I was not expecting anything at all here. Some further heavy downpours look like they are moving up on the rain today radar torwards here later. Maybe Crewe is in for a chance after all!!

thoroughly miserable here in South Devon for the weekend.......drizzle,very humid & horrible!...not expecting anything down in this neck of the woods...however back home looks quite good if the cloud can burn off.....Interesting pulse of convective rain in the SW approaches, heading NE towards the welsh coast and on into the west midlands...I'm presuming that's the frontal wave developing?

moisture seems to be pooling up against this shortwave - 17c dewpoints in the east, and up to 21c in the west country acording to xcweather - looks pretty juicy out there!

Looks like we'll see the cb's from here in cirencester, but they'll go north as it often happens - still - I'm mostly wrong, so fingers crossed!

Rain has now stopped here in Crewe but I would not rule out some of the rain pushing up here from the Midlands later. I dont know whether this will hold any storms so I guess I will just have to wait and see.

Hopefully you'll have more luck than we did, yes we had heavy downpours even caught a funnel but as far as thunderstorms were concerned a big fat zero..!!

The humidity today is unreal, everything in the house feels damp.

I hate humidty, we can always tell when the humidity is at stupid levels when the salt pots get all blocked up.

Does anyone know what the humidty actually is as I don't have a metre any more?

Had a short but fairly heavy shower here about half an hour ago. It seemed to have much more potential than was actually realised as it moved up from the south west but tended to disintigrate as it moved over, only to re-intensify a few miles to the north east. I was half hoping it might produce a clap of thunder but nothing happened.

One thing of note, it is no where near as humid feeling today here as the humidity is down on yesterday.

Put s89en in netweather extra radar and look what the Sheffield shield did to it. I see the shield has come back off holiday fully reinvigorated. It has let the odd spot of rain through though.

Looks like my only hope for any activity down here would be embedded thunderstorms that form along the front, like the stuff that moved into S Wales yesterday. There's a few sefrics shown with that area west of Cornwall now that looks to be moving towards S wales. http://andvari.vedur...ganir/eldingar/

The humidity here over the last couple of days has made some of our doors swell up so they are really hard to close! Currently cloudy, 20C with nearly 19C dewpoint.

Has anyone seen the forecast maps on the BBC site for tomorrow night into Monday, especially 4am? that would be, erm, interesting! :)http://news.bbc.co.u.../forecast/10209

I see what you mean! I'm beginning to think that there must be a very few favoured localities which get all the torrential downpours/thunderstorms etc whereas the rest of us sit here watching the radar and cursing the fact that,

'it's missed us by half a mile/two miles/three miles etc'

Having said that I can remember Sheffield getting a right pasting during the summer of 2007 and I was sitting here just south of the southern edge of it, weeping.
