Yeah. Surprised temps are rising again. Almost 24C (was 22C an hour ago) on my thermometer outside with 75% humidity, yuck!

Satellite imagery reveals growing cumulus in the vicinity of the northern Chilterns around Aylesbury and Luton, and some radar echoes have appeared in that area too. Elsewhere, quite a few sferics have also appeared in the Harlow area

Was just able to see some of those before more low level crud arrived.

That storm has just spent all day back building across the Cambridgeshire fens! 

Regarding later on, a number of models show an increase in Mid level CAPE approaching the EA coast overnight. That will no doubt help with elevated activity later on, I.e that stuff off the Essex coast at the moment.

Is it me or is that Cambridgeshire cell moving fast as a tortoise?! Every time I've refreshed the radar it's just lingering there!!!!!!

Anyone on here underneath it must be flooding surly? Been listening to it all day right on the edge.

Storm has developed out of nowhere in N London.

As the metoffice said storms could pop up absolutely any where from the Midlands South and that is proving correct so far

Another storm popping up in Central London!

Just opened the window and the air has that warm muggy smell again. Feels like the juice is topping up again

Some of the raincasts suggest downpours along the south coast tonight. !!

[AnvilCrawlers]

Bit late but sun is finally breaking through lol

[Southern Storm]

Yeah baby, looks like things are on the turn judging by the last couple of radar returns

Might come to nothing, but it's a start

[GeorgeZ]

This has just popped up over Reigate, incredibly fast development so don’t think its over for tonight yet!

Has netweathers radar lost some of its input, everything in the south west have lost its definition. 

[Sam Jackson]

temp has gone from 20 to 23 and dewpoint has gone from 18 to 19c 

[UKSupercell]

Woah this is heading almost overhead I think. Can hear rumbles!!! Looking E to London 

[Dan the Man]

Those echoes north of Luton - well I'm pretty much directly underneath and it's producing nothing?

I can't believe it's waited to pass over me before re-intensifying

[Ian Ballinger]

Wow thunder at last

[Hodgheg]

Storm exploded In 10 mins towards Epsom. Can’t believe how muggy it feels again

It happens almost every time storms are forecast, if they don't appear exactly as the models predicted, you get the usual "it's all gone belly up" posts 

Give it time folks give it time...

Just had some distant rumbles from that north London cell. 

[Had Worse]

Storm no8 since Monday just rolling over me.

Porthmadog keeps on giving

[GeorgeZ]

Shot gun thunder and CG lightning spotted off that Epsom cell in Effingham. Best boom all day!
