The front is about 4 hours behind predictions from yesterday evening which allowed me to get almost a whole morning's work done in the dry!

A cloudy, misty and damp start to the day as well as a brief heavy shower a few minutes ago here. Temperature: 13.6°C Rainfall Today: 3.0 mm.

Hopefully will hear thunder tonight. Im not sure though...

[Andy Bown]

The first really Autumnal feeling day with only 15.3c max despite unbroken sunshine from 15.00, perfectly clear and moonlit evening though.

Hopefully will hear thunder tonight. Im not sure though...

I think thundery activity will be restricted to nearer the coasts (Bristol Channel and English Channel).

[William Grimsley]

Might get some T&L tonight but not getting my hopes up whatsoever.

A relatively short spell of very heavy rainfall around 02:30 this morning, depositing 12mm of rain.

Some periods of heavy rain during the night but troughs now through. Broken cloud, Cu and Sc with temp 11C and quite windy NW 20mph gusting 35.

Meanwhile a streamer of them came through Warminster between 13.00 to 15.00 with some pretty potent brief downpours mixed in. The day had started showery too but plenty of sunshine from 09.00-13.00 and again since the last shower cleared.

 

It seems we have a front to come tomorrow night then a long dry spell.

Certainly looks like it. The fronts will probably take a fair time to clear so I'll happily write off tomorrow.

Couple of cracking heavy showers this afternoon caught a few folks out, with the speed and intensity, just like April, full of surprises..

[Rich_Clements]

Turned out nice in the end, a nice starry sky tonight and mild 

[Dorsetbred]

A fine dry evening, turned into a great night for star gaziing, clear and cool.

Overnight low @ 6.3°C.

[knocker]

Interesting cloud this morning. Much Ci, some Ac and Cu. Temp 10C and zephyr from the SSW.

[MP-R]

Cold feeling start at 05.9C. Temperature climbing fast now though in the sunshine. Expecting it to cloud over from mid-morning.

[William Grimsley]

A dry and cloudy start here. Temperature: 11.9°C.

[knocker]

Cracking morning here now. Variable amounts of cloud but some sun and no wind. Feels quite warm.

[Andy Bown]

Interesting cloud this morning. Much Ci, some Ac and Cu. Temp 10C and zephyr from the SSW.

Have been out working and enjoying the interesting cloud which has edged slowly in from the West, it seems to have hit something of a buffer as the clear blue sky that started the day is still visible to the East.

[Dorsetbred]

Topping out at 16.9°C, not too bad really for late September

18.1c here and could go higher seeing as there's decent blue sky around after a hazier few hours , it is much warmer air than the last few days. Interesting to see Exeter Airport on the NW homepage as the warmest Met office station in the UK.

A fairly decent squall line passed through around 06:12 this morning, bringing some torrential rain for a short period. It has pulled itself apart as it crossed the area, although I see it has reassembled for an attack on Portsmouth. 2mm of rain in a very short time.
