5th consecutive day of thunderstorms for us on the south coast. 6mm of rain and the storm seemed to decay around us. Where in the country is most prone to thunderstorms? We seem to get our fair share near Winchester, a high proportion of those are imported from our French neighbours during summer. Love them apart from the early morning alarm call!

[Summer Sun]

Once the fog lifted this morning its turned into a glorious day with lots of warm sunshine and no breeze

 

13.5c currently but feeling much warmer than this in the sun

Average days of thunder from Met Office annually and for October. Southern coastal regions do best for thunder in Nov-Dec but the E/SE is the place to be in summer.
