Just had my first storm for a long time, shame I couldn't see the lightning as it was above the cloud base, only the odd flash but was just constant thunder and heavy icy rain. That could become quite the storm as it goes up to the valleys.

Ubfortunatelt the lighting is mostly high up in the clouds and not visible but the thunder is amazing and torrential rain. Thunder and lightning decreasing as its moving inland off the channel.

That storm by Cardiff is headding straight for me, thunder getting louder and louder, sky has gone down

Cain just seen my first bit of lightning as it approaches, thunder is none stop, very very active, cant wait till its overhead

Constant rolling thunder from the approaching storm here, hope it goes over head and not to the side of me

Cain Most definately will for me, they always build up over me or near me then go boom once too far north of me

Some stormy looking clouds bubbling up here now coming off the Bristol Channel, those north of us will probably get some storms once they build more.

Been a lovely spring day, sunny with a high of 20.4C, perfect spring day for me!

Currently having a heavy shower. Having looked at the met office, the average annual rainfall at St Athen by me is 1043mm and I've already recorded 594mm in the first quarter of the year. Could do with getting a few weeks of warm dry weather to help dry the ground out a bit, as im sure many areas need!

Temp has dropped from 10.2C thismorning to 4.4C now, cold rain and windy.

My small tree in the front has started blossoming already, im looking forward to spring now and seeing everything going into blossom and green again if we won't get snow down here. Saying that March the last several years is the only time on the coast I've had any laying snow, not winter itself so see if this year it happens again!

I very much have resigned to the fact this may be a snowless winter for me on the south coast in terms of laying snow. Hopefully a miracle can happen and it can correct 100 miles or so further south and stall, keeping us in cold enough air

Had a max gust of 22.8mph, my street was very sheltered from the sw wind last night.

Poped my head out the back door and can hear the wind roaring away probably towards Barry Island but oddly barely a breeze by me still, I had expected to be getting some strong winds by now.
