Already 0.4mm of rain.

Interesting cloud formations pushing up from the south

Shows how localised these downpours were as I got 17.6mm since that overnight storm

Seems to be a band of heavier precipitation developing along England/Wales border

Radar doesn't look impressive to the south, atm. Most of the active echoes look like going up the Pennines and to the east with reminants coming up this way

Can hear thunder. Netweather radar seems stuck on 4.35pm

Yes there was

7.2mm of rain fell during the early hours as a storm passed over Irlam

Rain woke me up. just after 2am

Early June 1933 Edgbaston 4th: 77F 5th: 82F 6th: 83F 7th: 82F 8th: 83F 9th: 81F Coincided with the Whitsun holiday London has 6 days into the 80Fs and 108hrs of sunshine by the 8th of June

June 1957 was an exceptionally sunny, warm month which ended with a significant heatwave 35.6°C on the 29th June 1957 at Camden Square. 35.0°C was also recorded at Northolt . For England and Wales, June 1957 is the sunniest June ever recorded with 284.6hrs but there was a spectacular crash during July and August with sunshine well below the average so much so that the combined sunshine total for both months was less than that of June's. Some sunshine totals (hrs) 346: Shanklin 340: Ilfracombe 339: Littlehampton 328: Torquay 326: Pembroke 320: Worthing 318: Scarborough 303: Broadstairs 296: Ramsgate 294: Keele Uni 293: Margate 291: Kew 292: Bristol 290: Huddersfield 285: Manchester 283: Edgbaston 282: Waddington 274: Coventry

Did anyone between the far east of Greater Manchester to Merseyside corridor miss out on storms during Saturday-Monday just gone? Struck me, that on Saturday, Merseyside up to M6 area did best, rest got nothing. On Sunday, eastern parts of Greater Manchester did best and the rest virtually got nothing On Monday, the areas in between did the best.

Cool this morning 8.1°C Met Office forecast mentions the chance of thunderstorms this morning

Oh well....its gone

31.3°C at Rostherne, yesterday

My regular timelapse looking NW. The way rain shafts suddenly drop reminds me of mini microbursts Took a couple of videos of the storm
