Squall is becoming electrically active according to blitzortung. Looks very impressive on radar now.

Indeed, currently the radar looks pretty lively in certain areas as hinted at in my post to the CSE & SW regional, copied below.

 

"It looks like quite a vicious squall passing through in the past few minutes over parts of East Hants and up into East Berks right now, will be interesting to hear of any reports especially nearer the coast."

Ah, good to know. I think that is what is also known as a cloud fart according to our resident forecaster in training, Nick L.  :D

Had around half an hour's worth of absolutely torrential rain here which has caused flash flooding! Multiple cars breaking down trying to go through flood water, people wading in bare foot to push them out and buses struggling to get through, mental! Sadly no thunder and lightning though.

Yup! Just had a huge flash of lighting and very loud thunder here, plus tropical rainfall! Quite exciting now!

I'm in Sussex at the movement and I notice on the radar a potent squall line is coming this way it's absolutely saturated round here.

There has been some mental floods down Lymington way. A foot of water in some places. Luckily it's reading off a lot now.

Bizarre, nothing particularly heavy in Twickenham yet and in fact it has temporarily stopped.
