NAE 00z just in...all i can say for the south is its a big change for tonight, mass amount of rain-thundery potentially, its moved the stuff from the east more west, just look at that area of blue over the south tonight!!

risk areas for flooding as mentioned in post above is - Northern Ireland, parts of southern england-especially central south and central sw by the looks of it., and then tonight southern england thundery rain, and also it seems that rains are to affect parts of Scotland.

Its been quite a dry start to June here in the Lake District - yesterday saw patchy rain showers amounting to barely a few mms.. however, this week should see some healthy falls bringing levels probably closer to where they should be.

here in Surrey we did have several hours of steady to heavy rain, not sure how much we got, but it washed away the brown grass in places that are now mud patches, that should grow new grass soon. Edited June 7, 2011 by ElectricSnowStorm

BBC local have us down for quite a bit of rain here in the SE today, just hope it can do some good in the fields and gardens

[Ben_Cambs]

Sunday could potentially be a very wet day for some, particularly down in the SW, as a LP system and its associated fronts cross the country on a SW-NE track. All areas should see some rainfall though. The Met have issued an adivsory for heavy rainfall, up to 40mm in the SW on Sunday;

I await the next few NAE runs with great interest, as a fair amount of rain is needed here!

Saturday(today) note:please ignore the file names on the images if they say friday in the bottom left corner-they are meant to say saturday. you can see the date on the actual charts anyway.

Heavy showers breaking out across many areas - some heavy and thundery, others just your average shower.

looking at the latest NAE 12pm - 6pm this shows a mass of rain heading in from the North Sea

if we take a look at the 4am radar snap from the MetO you can clearly see this heading into the NE.

Now we can take a look at sunday

Sunday charts below..

NAE 00z - lots of rain for everyone as a system sweeps in. needs to be kept watch as some areas could see flooding.

Areas like EA/SE that usually miss out as fronts weaken when they reach here- look to get some decent rain out of this system!
