Potent heavy thunderstorm here - with heavy rain and lightning bolts- looks homegrown. The classic darkening skies to the south and the air of an impending storm feeling not normally felt so early in the season. The last few summers have been devoid in the main of thunderstorm activity.

It was FAB wasn't it Miamay, I was working so could only hear the rain and the thunder it was like being tortured because I couldn't run outside and watch, friends and family where texting me to tell me how great it was and I couldn't witness it    :wallbash:

Hi Jan I was in work too but saw some of it. Warm and muggy here. Potential for more downpours tonight maybe ??

Not a lot of rain here, infact, the sun has peeked through a couple of times already and it is drying up.

A nothing day here.The rain this morning was feeble, it was cool, largely cloudy with a little bit of rain at times but it was largely dry. Even the band of showers coming up from the south died out before they got here.

Preety cold feeling day for late May. Gusty cold NE breeze and maxima held at 10 degrees under overcast skies - many a milder day in November. Very uninspiring at what tends to be one of the best times of year weatherwise here.

Looks like a boring day coming up weather wise. The forecast heavy rain looking much further south and weaker than suggested. So looks like a drab day with light rain or drizzle at times. At least I'm not looking at bright warm sunshine while I wait for an engineer I suppose.

Rain a bit more than light - again - just a few miles south of you Pit in Mansfield. We have certainly copped it a lot over the past week. Whether it blows in from the north, south,east or west, Mansfield gets the rain!

Big miss on the forecast today for here. No heavy rain which actually managed a little sun instead albeit briefly. One of those forecasts that belongs in the oh dear category.

Same here, just a few spots enough to make grass damp through the day.

Well the rains arrived 24hrs late. Justed wait until I went out to read the thermometers and measure the rain.

Yes, yesterday's forecast was pretty hopeless, and today's is looking bust already. Unless something dramatic happens it looks as if the worst has already pushed through westwards. No sign on the radar just now of the persistent heavy rain which was supposed to be affecting Eastern England all day today, just heavy showers.

Maybe some more in the North sea that may push in later.

Despite the forecasts I haven't seen any rain for the last few days and yesterday was mainly sunny and warm with temps around 17/18c. I'm well placed here as the Cumbrian fells and Pennines generally keep us sheltered from weather coming in from the east with the hills absorbing most of the moisture, bit of a pain in winter when it's snowing out east and we don't get anything coming this far west. More overcast today so expecting some showers but not as much as some models/forecasts would have you believe - we'll see.
