    I'm royally fed up of this insipid weather on the north sea coast. Cool to cold, dull to dreary, damp to wet. It's even worse than this time last year, which I thought was about as poor as it could get.

    Can't catch a break here. Barely seen any sun this past week.

    Not a thing 12 miles from you, but I can hear your storm, sounds like a bit of a humdinger!
  4. northriding
    You ain't alone. Storms to my south over Whitby and East Cleveland last night, storms to my north up the Durham Coast today. Close but no cigar.

    Looks like your primed for a corker, good luck!

    Feeling rather cool at only 16C. I spent yesterday evening listening to the sound of a lone foghorn from a cable laying ship off the coast of Saltburn. Eerily relaxing, but would prefer to join in on the heatwave.

    Thank you! Hope you see some sun before the day is out. I'm going back outside to shake my fists at the cloud!

    Thick grey cloud overhead and it's clear just out to sea here too. I give up complaining. Roll on Autumn and the receding expectations.

    Regional variations will require a rather broad stroke for this summer to attain anything approaching a statistical means average for sunshine. It's been absolute pap! Subsisting on a side dish of pills, fish, and eggs for Vit. D when the main course should've been shining is downright dissatisfying.

    I can bear witness to that. I'm about to cut the lawn with my phone torch strapped to the mower.

    The North Sea's cloud dumping on land has certainly given the sewage discharge spewing the other way a run for its money this year. Another mare's tail of a day for me.

    The sunshine in June was a lovely fillip, but losing the height of summer nationwide really is a bum deal. Mercifully, the cloud dissipated as the afternoon wore on, and I guess one upshot from this third-rate weather stint, is just how lush and green the plant life is:

    I was hoping it would burn off during the morning, but the cloud has doubled down over us now. It's been so poor for so long up here, I don't see how the season can be salvaged sufficiently to justify calling it a summer.

    Day of two halves yesterday, sunny morning, overcast afternoon and evening. Hoping today does the opposite about-face because it's cloudy this morning.

    Torshavn has probably fared better than any of us have for the last half dozen weeks or so. To have weeks and weeks scrubbed out either side of a decent spell in June has wrecked my zen.

    Was fortunate enough to see a few fleeting breaks in the grey slab yesterday, totted up to about 90 seconds of sunshine. Won't be that lucky today.

    I saw more of the Moon last December than I've seen of the Sun this July. Nothing else needs to be said about this month.

    I would class Lincolnshire as eastern England, between the SE and NE, but I take your point on the general track of storms. I haven't had a direct hit from a convective downpour this year, nevermind an actual storm, though I appreciate that's an unfortunate exception for my region rather than the norm. Being much further south, you will only have to bide your time for the next humdinger

    Glad to see the cobwebs have finally been blown off and the tumbleweed kicked into touch. Been a very uneventful few years for the N.E. region as a whole. I've had no measurable rain today, which is really surprising given the ample convection.
  20. northriding
    Any idea on your rainfall total for the day so far? I was casting an envious eye over Darlington's convective cloudscape earlier when I was soaking my lawn with the hosepipe. Had nothing but a few spits and spots of rain in Middlesbrough.
  21. northriding
    Just heard a growling rumble of thunder from the storm passing over Darlington. Nothing here again so far. Middle of July and I'm still waiting on my first convective downpour of the year, nevermind an actual storm overhead. Would love some proper rainfall for my lawn today.
  22. northriding
    Surprised by that, the radar is showing some fairly heavy ppn in your locality. I've got everything crossed for some convective rainfall tomorrow.
  23. northriding
    This is dross. If it has to be dull and breezy, could it at least rain enough to actually benefit my lawn.
  24. northriding
    Memorable for many wrong reasons. I moved house in the middle of that month, and never broke sweat. Wearing a hat and hoody in the middle of June, while doing the heavy lifting and multiple stair runs should have seen me faint, but not 06/2012
  25. northriding
    Not much action in the end, only 2mm of moderate rain fell and the lightning was a few miles to the west and south east of me.
