    Nice embedded thunderstorm earlier in Norwich with all this rain, saw a couple of CGs and CC which were preceded by some deep rumbles prior to visible lightning. Now just raining constantly, in total 65 mins of rain so far! Much needed, grass is incredibly brown.

    Bit of a disappointment really. Looked like the estofex/torro forecast was justified for a while, but didn't last long around here.

    After all the excitement recently, looks like a bit of a boring week ahead storm wise.

    Maybe an isolated storm tomorrow in the North West?

    That's about as good as it gets for a week or so!

    Although anywhere along the North West might be in with a slim chance

    It can't get much quieter than it has been in the last few weeks here. Bring on winter and those northwesterlies. I might actually get something from them. This is by far the worsed year for storms I can remember, end of story!
