South East & East Anglia Regional Discussion 23rd July 2013 onwards

[Wet'n'Dry]

A messy clump of CB's forming to my N/E although they will probably leave the mainland before they come to anything!!

It is unbearable out there today. So humid! Nothing much happening here, there was a quick shower about noon but that was about it.

Kate Kinsella on Look East "looking ahead to the rest of the week we might get some warmer downpours"  - what planet is that woman on?????

I've wondered that ever since she first appeared - better than the brunette with the simpering voice though - Italian surname.

[Norfolk Sheep]

Cloudy and muggy, just about managing 21C. One rumble of thunder and I'd be more than happy right now!

[Eskimo]

Off to work from 3-8 today, probably going to miss everything lol. 

[JMTD]

Crazy in Cambridge, so humid, haven't felt a day like this for years, feels 'explosive'. 

 

Think I managed to get about an hour last night. Probably the worst storm I've seen in the 25 years of my life. Just mental from 1 in the morning and went on till 8. Had the odd break in there for ten or so minutes and then fired back up. Not just average stuff either, it sounded like a warzone, proper strikes and explosion. 

 

Expecting more later today and tonight? You can feel it in the air. Wouldn't surprise me if it started at any point and just erupted. Bring on the bloody winter.

[SHM040519]

Very humid in Canterbury. Feels like it needs to go bang! Crazy storm overnight here!

[MeteoF]

Unbearably humid here. A little bit of mid level instability directly above me but nothing convincing just yet.

[fulham snow]

Just had to turn the air con up 1 notch got above 70 in the office

He forgot to mention it will still be unbearably humid and muggy then?

Whether storms come to fruitation or not this afternoon/evening, does anyone know when the humidity will go and things have a more fresher feel?  It's like being blasted with a hair dryer at the mo and I can't move without breaking out in a sweat (yes yes, not very lady like I know!)

[Captain Shortwave]

passed through a heavy shower between stowmarket and diss. nothing much though

[Norfolk Sheep]

through a gap in the murk I can see cloud tops away to the north, must be over Lincs or summat.

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Whats the bubbling up on the south coast yummy!

[snowbob]

Nothing here now but sun

Really thought today would be good for a bit of a storm

Nothing

Oh well

Here's the humidity from NMM until tomorrow morning Leeanne:

 

[Anvils in the Sky]

25.9° here. Muggy and bright. Met office radar suggests we've been under a deluge on and off for hours. Can assure we have not!

 

(Oh, and hello all from this new boy!)

[Snowangel-MK]

I survived the roof top car park - it was very hot up there though ...

Thankfully the shops were cool and quiet and I managed to find a lovely party dress !

[Wet'n'Dry]

If you're bored you could watch this. This mornings storm, 10 minutes un-edited. Almost continuous thunder, mostly IC lightning with the odd CG

I think the storms are playing meteorological hopscotch over the Triangle...
