Clear spells overnight. Mainly sunny this morning. Staying mostly sunny throughout, turning hot.

[johnholmes]

I've missed the storms so far and any rain, some great cloud scenes, Ac Cas, Flo, Ci Cas also, lots of towering Cu and what I suspect are CB's but tops obscured by carious other clouds; T=25.6 Td=16 C

 

Well the rain has arrived large drops out of Mamma cloud, presumably Cb, not heard (but deaf) any thunder or seen any flashes over the past 2 hours as the main cloud band has been just west of here. Looking at the lightning indicator on Net Wx , on my post code the nearest are somewhat SW of here. Davis says 0.2 mm but with puddles around it seems under done!
