That is by far the loudest boom of thunder I have ever heard. Had to shut my window

Morning all. Mist, rain (some moderate) & seagulls just now. Forecast suggests we might get something of interest later. 

 

I'm watching the radar urging it to swing east, I keep forgetting the radar does not have ears nor any influence on the direction of the storms!! :D

No urging required here.

It's certainly swung, I've got heavy rain, now need some thunder :) It's hard to believe it's forecast to brighten up later and should be a lovely afternoon/evening.

Aye, today should be lovely later, then a re-run tomorrow in mirror image, cracking morning and thunderstorms in the afternoon. It's brighter here but still cloudy, although the radar suggests the rain is exiting stage right as I type.

Easing off now. That was some rain at points.

 

Good news is that the gairden got a decent water. Noticed when doing some planting yesterday that the ground was getting a bit dry.

 

Bad news is a few plants flattened with the intensity of the rain. It was end of days biblical monsoon grade at times.

 

EDIT. From my planting bucket, looks like 2.5" of rain since yesterday evening.

Lovely day yesterday, turned sunny after about 10:30am.

Reached a warm 25.2c

The nearest station reached 25.7c, unusual for a more coastal, official station to consistently be warmer than me during the day but it shows the set up we were (are) in.

Heavy rain from about 3am onwards. Apparently there was lightning (ground looks very wet) but I was out last night and slept through it all it would seem...

We've had a couple of much louder rumbles now & I saw one flash (not the bolt, likely CC) but not frequent. Rain still very heavy though. 

 

Edit: big flash & big crash!!!

Mornin' all! I just want to say we had summer here yesterday! Yup, one da  only this year and now winter has returned! Gales, horizontal rain and cauld! stained glass window! Just a few days of sunshine isn't too much to ask for is it? Oh, aye, a wee rumble o' thunder there, a big storm please, that should clear the air a bit!
