Met rain forecasts are always dreadful in showery SW set ups!

On Golden sands, quite today

For those in the west of the region, worth a quick read, seems we are too far east to collect any of this..

Yes, saw that earlier. It confused me as the radar is fairly benign and today doesn't have a thundery feel to it. But then I actually read the forecast properly (ahem) and I can see that the potentially thundery weather is for tonight/tomorrow morning.

Same here Dorset, (without the sea) clouded over here now, although did cut the lawn earlier although it was a bit too wet really.

 

 

[Dorsetbred]

A short-lived return to summer, being enjoyed by a few, no clouds, pure blue skies, clam sea, looking good, and an earlier high temp of 23.4°C at: 12:40

Nice day for the beach @*Stormforce~beka*?

Meanwhile inland the sky darkens slightly as this single puppy approaches, will it or wont it?

Close but no cigar!

Some brief rain showers in the area this morning, despite the Met Office stating a <5% chance of precipitation.

Another rain cloud to the N but looks like it will miss us.

My my things are from right for you aren't they, it's a real shame as today was a good one down there.

Yet again, our dome managed to kill off the inland shower, we have a great knack of being able to do that here.

[matt111]

Sunny for most of the day and felt quite warm although the breeze was still fairly strong. Reached 20.3°C
