Somerset Squall

8.4mm here so far today. Looks like a squall line on the back edge of the front.

Just had a very heavy and squally shower. Most notable feature was the wind gust of 49mph.

So it does! Thankyou :). Typical our warning has expired now haha.

Mobile website, not tried on my laptop or the app to be fair. It's only been an issue with this warning, not happened before. Odd.

To be fair, on the western edge of the amber warning here we had 24.0mm of rain yesterday and it is hammering down again now with similar totals expected today looking at the radar (this is all on top of the 20mm that fell on Friday). Watching the radar yesterday there seemed to be localised heavier areas within the main band that seemed to linger in individual places, maybe justifying the amber. I think though it should have been extended further east as it looks like places east of the amber warning area did get a deluge aswell. Just as a side note, has anyone else been unable to open the further details tab on the amber warning? I've not been able to for this whole event.

Mine did go on yesterday. Usually it is late October. But then normally we don't get low single digit temperatures at night in September. I suspect when the nights get milder again there will be no need to put it on for a while.

Torrential rain currently, not heard any thunder but then the roar of the rain may be drowning it out!

Closing in on 50mm for the day, total now at 48.4mm and rising. Can't remember a day quite this wet for a while! And it looks like the pivot continues with more rain heading in from the west now.

Up to 41.2mm for the day. Afrer a brief lull it is coming back again, not as heavy as earlier however, where my locale was under white echoes on the radar for about 2 hours!

Had some torrential rain alternating with lighter spells. Had 38.0mm of rain so far, so soggy is an understatement!! To think this now after such a dry May.

Had some torrential rain earlier where 9.0mm of rain fell in about 15 mins. The irony being that that was essentially the total for the whole of May!! Raining in torrents again now, at 24.4mm/hr, rainfall up to 15.4mm for the day and rising fast.

Temperature reached the dizzy heights of 15.6°C here today. Customers into the shop were remarking how warm and sunny it was (I had no idea as work has no windows). Fast forward to this evening and we now have horizontal rain and a screaming gale. Oh how I love the UK's weather haha.

Just had a heavy sleet shower here, temperature was 6°C before it, now dropped to 3.5°C. 13.0mm of rain fell overnight. This makes February's total at 124.8mm currently and a round 200.0mm for the year!

Just had a snow shower pass through, nothing desperately heavy but nice to see. Possibly more incoming from the NW. Temperature hovering around 2°C, dew point 0°C.

Just had some snow on the back edge of the shower cluster that went through. Temp fell to 2.8°C and it started off as sleet but turned to full on snow. Sadly only lasted a minute and a half but the first snow I have seen of the Winter haha.

After some overnight showers it has been dry so far this morning, clouding over more now though. Mild, with the temperatures currently at 9.9°C.

Another 15.4mm of rain here today. We are ok where I am but a lot of the villages in the area are having significant flooding issues. As per Mapantz's chart, I am indeed recording 968mb here currently.

Can't believe how wet it has been today. A true deluge. Eased slightly at around 4pm but it is now tipping it down again with some bright echoes on the radar. Had 46.2mm of rain so far today, on top of the 26.2mm yesterday.

Absolutely pouring again today after a less wet night. We are at 36.2mm of rain since 2.30pm yesterday, with some torrential rain looking like in the next couple of hours.

Rain easing here in intensity now. Started raining proper at around 2.30pm, and since then, 26.2mm of rain has fallen.

Got down to -1.8°C here last night and after dense fog persisted for much of the morning, the maximum for today was only 4.8°C. Back down to -1.4°C already, already lower than the minimum of 0°C forecast by the Met Office.

Round 2 was pretty impressive aswell, lightning not quite as frequent but still pretty frequent! Still rumbling away now but I need sleep!! Haha

Wow, that was a fairly brief but whopper of a storm! Frequent lightning and no thunder to begin with and then as the rain started there were some really loud cracks, the air was so electrified! Pretty gusty winds too! Not too shabby Taunton, Somerset btw

7.1mm of rain so far today. Heavier rain now encroaching from the east as we speak so looks like the heaviest rain will be overnight tonight for this location.

Wish we had this synoptic setup in Winter!! Always the way.
