Hi Fromey,

I had to just go and jump in the car and climb Cleyhill after I saw those in case any more formed so that I could be closer. 
when I looked back towards your way I could see a very angry looking bass cloud.

When I reached CleyHill there were two more attempts but the energy was just not there for them to form properly.

first two photos are of the attempts the third photo is the dark cloud-based looking back towards your way in Frome. 
 

fourth photo looking towards angry clouds over Warminster as well.

lastly , thought I would add in  a really friendly horse at the bottom of the track too

Walked past that cam at about 9:30am, on the way to Bournemouth. It was quite bright around that time.

Some welcomed rain as I've been out sorting out one of the beds in the garden..

Norra lot of rain 0.8mm but it's welcomed after turfing the soil over...the flowers & shrubs will appreciate it..currently 14.0°C ..

[Dorsetbred]

Sparkies well out in the Channel..

After a sunny start, it clouded over quickly through the morning and it’s been a miserable afternoon.

Send it this way please!!

If ever I needed a fine morning to get out and work it’s today. Must be some flash flooding in some parts of Dorset.

Yes, I've noticed the torrential downpours in your area.

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, it's one of those "Nah" mornings...the dogs looked at the pouring rain and said "Nah, we are NOT going out in that!"...it was pouring though as the radar shot shows we are right under the heaviest patch...nice..

With the overnight low and the current temperature nearly the same, currently 12.8°C and so far we have had 29.2 mm of rainfall since midnight

[Mapantz]

Major flooding around here. 70mm and counting. It has been unbelievably relentless. The warning hasn't even started yet
