Funny how i was so disappointed earlier when i heard England was going to get most of the action, especially given that its 12oC here in Aberdeen and you lot are hitting the highs of 30oC, yet you seem to be getting very little and most of it looks like its skirting up the east coast towards us...

Who'd have thought?????

Bah humdinger :)

25c this morning, now 15c, an innocuous cool down as is often the case.

It definitely feels a lot more humid than it did earlier, which in my books is always a good sign that there's storm potential!

I noticed that the chase team isn't too far away, maybe I should pop over and say hello! :D

Apparently there was no rain in Sunderland, just distant thunder!

Cleadon has had a few sharp showers, the heaviest being the northern flank of the one that formed between 16:20 and 16:30 to the south of Sunderland, so I think Sunderland must have had at least some rain from that last one.

Just foggy and 16C here now though.

The cold front is expected to arrive in northern england at around midnight, I wonder if this might enhance our chance of a storm later this evening?

It will.

Up to 24°C again with loads of steam rising from the rooftops - that's quite a recovery from the 15°C we dropped to during the storms!
