here for heavy rain.

Met office have done a stupid redesign of their page so now I have to specifically look for warnings. Grrr.

Some of you may have noticed that the storms are becoming electrified Grin

It's fine at the moment - on coast near Chichester. Can even see a bit of blue sky! Where's it coming from?

It's coming directly from the east, but seems to be forming bands on the radar so you if you get one storm you may well end up with a train of them.

Still lovely here - but some huge cunim building up inland.

We are a bit of a micro climate, with the Beachy Head effect.

Which radar do you look at OYBBK?

We had thunder storms in the South West on Sunday. I need it to be dry now, because I'm cycling tomorrow.

We had absolutely torrential rain, hail and thunder for about 15 mins at 3.45, the roads were like rivers and hail was piled up in corners like little snowdrifts afterwards (Hants/Surrey borders).

We had a very sudden massive rain storm here (Wokingham) at 12.10 - it appeared from nowhere just as the kids were going out to lunch, sunshine to monsoon in what seemed like half a minute - then again with thunder this time about an hour later.

We had a few downpours. First about 1.30 the 2 more with thunder about 3.45 and 4.15. The middle one was epic!

S.Herts.

No rain here yet. Watered my early rambling noisette rose which has a few blooms already opened so bound to rain later. When it is looking glorious in full bloom and the wind and rain arrive, the blooms fall apart and into the pond belowSad.

Thunder and intermittent heavy rain in Hampshire this afternoon. It almost looked as though we'd been transported back to November.

Local news online is that a new flood alert has been issued for places in Hampshire because the groundwater levels remain high.

Alci, I'm unsurprised!

fog warnings

So much water around that cooler clear nights are leading directly to fog.

Ah, that explains why it was foggy here earlier today. Delays to Solent ferries and at Southampton airport, and on the roads.

We have had 2 thunder/lightening storms in the past week, we rarely get them here (and never for very long) so much excitement in North Hampshire
