Do you see a crocodile or a ship? It’s been a very good cloud day.

Thank goodness all the showers are dying out before reaching here this morning. It’s meaning a bright day (so far) with decaying anvils passing overhead.

My boy just emptied 41mm out of my gauge which is from early yesterday onwards! February up to 167.5mm ! That’s almost 10x as much as last February !
-
Below 5c now and a very gusty WNW’ly picking up. Still pouring too!
-
Mother Nature absolutely nailed it! My postcode marker is pretty much under the heaviest 8.20 radar colour! School run time for us is 8.15-8.35!! Sun’s out now !!
-
Just when you think it can’t get any worse then you see this primed to turn up at school run time!!!!!!
-
Lol it’s looking dry until around 05.00! I expect the dry spell will include a clearer sky to allow a moonlit period after not even a hint of brightness all day! Then dull and wet through daylight tomorrow!
-
Dorsetbred jeez! There’s already been another 30mm or so today!
-
Thankfully unlike other places there was no drizzle this morning. Cloud has broken since mid morning with hazy sunshine since. Outdoor work done happily between 9-12 and everyone’s bedding drying on the line/airers now. Looks like being the first dry day since last Monday. Happy Andy today!

One word to describe this morning ; benign.
-
Drumroll please! It’s been dry for about 24 hours and yep the next rain is due spot on time for this mornings school run!!
-
offerman I can’t send you the video because I saw it on my wife’s WhatsApp from one of her colleagues. She lives in a flat near the river at the Asda end of Frome. The river was absolutely raging this morning!

jtay how did your mower not sink? I walked on my lawn to hang washing and it’s akin to a swamp!
-
offerman my manual rain gauge (holds 50mm) is in a plant pot in the middle of the garden and I can see it’s nearly full!
-
Anyone know where the stop switch is!?
-
We had hardly any sun yesterday. It’s misty and invizdriz this morning. But hey the sky was crystal clear from around 18.00-at least midnight!!!!!!
-
Oh for goodness sake the dry day is a no go already with heavy drizzle turning up 10 minutes ago!
-
There must be some flooding in the strip from around Exeter and NE to around Marlborough. Those areas have had several heavy bursts run along the same line in the last 4/5 hours and another now. Meanwhile just a few miles to the East it’s been showery but nothing more than a few mm.
-
Having driven to and from Trowbridge this morning (as well as doing a few hours work) the sky is certainly fascinating.
-
Alderc 2.0 I just checked the radar and am really surprised! It’s like some plume set up!
-
Wonderful day, a surprise frost to start too.
-
For a number of years now (and for a number of reasons) I do my outdoor work differently time wise in school holidays than during term time. This kind of forecast simply does not happen on the first day of such a situation! Looking forward to it!
-
TammasinWhiskers it’s a very slow moving slack LOW pressure. The showers are moving anticlockwise round the LOW, like they’re in a spin cycle.
-
Yes the first sunny morning for 9 days!
