Day has turned into night here in north west London and the wind has really picked up. Something big is heading this way.

Down comes the rain (again). Good. I won't need to water the veg.

Bad for the wheat crop which had dried out nicely.

[saint]

Thunder and lightning fully here now... Not much rain though.

Looks like we're catching just the edge of the storm here, but, it's better than nothing!

Lucky bugger. Mind you, I received one cell which dumped 4.8mm, some hail and at least 10 rumbles, so in no position to complain.

Distant rumbles of thunder here in Bexleyheath. Not sure from what direction it's coming from as there are ominous looking clouds in all directions!

[Lauren]

Nowt to be seen here apart from rain.

[biddie]

It's rumbling. And it's not my belly. Is excited. Weeeeeeeeeee.

[Keraunic]

Very dark skies here. Just had some drizzly rain. No thunder yet.

[john pike]

[Ruthie]

More rumbles of thunder here in brentford, didn't see any lightning.. It's very dark!

[Biggin]

Looking good over John Ps Croydon way from me.

[BB1979]

Great sounding storm passing just to North of Barnehurst. Lots of high level sounding thunder. No visible lightening. Essex bound

[john pike]

hail

close lightning and thunder

[Moore75]

Had 1thunderstorm already and it look like no 2 is brewing - going quite dark here again.

[nanu]

One hell of a storm over me at present... Its nasty here at mo..

[Methuselah]

Another big NOTHING in this neck-of-the-woods!

[Moore75]

Just heard the first rumble of the 2nd storm. Looking on the radar it looks like there could be more, and hope that most of us storm lovers get some storms today.

Best storm in a few years just gone through here. Best gust front on a UK thunderstorm i've ever seen aswell, from calm and still to leaves being torn off the trees and small branches flying about in a few seconds. A bit of hail mixed in, and almost constant thunder....roll on the next one!

[BB1979]

Storm no.2 now audible and this one looking like could be a direct hit for me. Fingers crossed
