Temperatures were a good six degrees down on the forecast overnight min values. A hazy sunny start but high cloud rapidly moved in preventing any warmth to keep the approaching decaying front alive. A brief spell of light rain at home but heavier elsewhere. Sun now out and finally turning humid

Missed the heavy thunderstorm here but 3 miles down the road some lightning and thunder with torrential rain off and on for 20 minutes, displey filed had a few acres of standing water when it ended; visibility at one time barely 1000 metres, just 7.4 mm here, at least no need to water the pots tonight, that looks to have fallen in about 10 mins with 292 mm per hour at its maximum!

I'd have thought you guys John and Polar would have had storms.  We tried brewing you some here. Most notable thing today was the wind.
