I have had very little rain, it evaporated within an hour.

Glad some people have got the rain that is needed but nothing here, oh well, better luck next time for me.

Dry as a bone still. Temperature has dropped considerably though, all that heat and no fun for me.

Can hear thunder from that storm over London, I want a storm too lol.

Had a few minutes of rain and a few rumbles but all has evaporated now and its insanely humid!

Some rumbles of thunder and a bit of light rain but the drops where large.

So the stuff west of London refuses to go up. Probably bed time for me.

I can occasionally see lightning flashes reflected by the high clouds here in N.Watford from the storms North of here.

Apparently north of the M25 is the best for storm development (Like always), keeping an eye on the stuff South West of London.

Where are you located?

Mother Nature is trying... ok? lol

I have had Muffins with sausage and eggs, I am ready for the storms but I highly doubt anything will trigger.

All to many times have I seen convection build over London and then explode once it gets over the m25,

Something seems to be blocking the the showers from rising? Is there still a cap at this time of night?

I know of wishful thinking but Anoprop is up there lol

Apparently light showers will get METO to issue thunderstorm warnings if the dry spell is long enough. We miss out again on the lifting mechanism NW Europe gets annually. Cool.

I can hear thunder from that storm heading north west.

Does anyone know why storms in this area tend to be at night? The last few years nearly all of the thunderstorms have come during the late even into the early morning.

Last nights storms where pretty good but we didn't get much rain, constant flickering but because the storms where elevated the thunder wasn't that loud. Hopefully today is rinse and repeat.

Does anyone have a clue what might happen today? BBC news was pretty vague.

Strong Tornado in Germany earlier near Viersen.

that is a lot of lightning.

Had some decent thunder here in Watford. All gone now, but its the earliest I have ever had a nighttime storm.

Had some nice lightning around Watford, one was pretty close. Best April storm I have ever witnessed here, reminiscent of Summer storms. Not quite as violent as the summer storms but better then I could have ever imagined.

You lucky lot! Send that stuff my way please!
