That's better darkness ,don't have to look at it now :)...

[itsnowjoke]

Why has it been raining

[Mokidugway]

because it can .....

[Mountain Snow]

This rain is relentless!  

[Liam J]

Temp like a yo yo today, fallen back again down to 8.2c as the cooler air tucks back in behind the depression. 

[I Cumbria Marra I]

Rain has been torrential for the last 4 hours, a LOT of surface water and rivers rising quickly, wouldn't be surprised to see reports of flash floods.

Yes West Wales and Cumbria and other western fringes have had it bad today... rain has held of here most of the day but it's started to fall a bit now and will no doubt reach us in a few hours.  Hopefully by then it will get a bit of a shuftie on and clear away eastwards

Yeah, the intensity of the rain over a prolonged period is quite something, real bad conditions on the roads, only a small respite tomorrow morning before more heavy rain along with severe gales in places. 

[Summer Sun]

Flooding on the west coast mainline this evening at Lockerbie no real surprise given all the rain

[weatherobsuk]

Torrential rain passing through along a developing squall-line, garden is flooded and roads are like rivers at the moment and that was only a 15-minute downpour.

[Thunder Snow]

Very heavy rain all day today and river levels have responded very quickly 

[Mokidugway]

Rain has finally stopped ,sending out a dove to look for land ....

[Liam J]

Hopefully it will move through faster than forecast, hopefully the rivers will recede tomorrow

More worrying amounts of rain forecast in the days ahead for the Lake District on saturated ground. Expecting more flood warnings and severe weather warnings. The rain seems destined to plough into this part of the country, another write off weekend ahead, the third one in four...

[SparkleS]

Fancy software but a bit stark white looks like its been snowing!! 

[Backtrack]

Thank god. Crystal blue skies to start the day and a lovely sunrise to go with it. Forecast to stay this way until nightfall. So thankful for a calm, sunny day today. Beats getting soaked that's for sure. It's mild too

[Thunder Snow]

The environmental agency are saying river levels are expected to fall by mid morning, but further significant rain fall is expected through out the weekend causing rivers to rise significantly
