The moderate rain earlier this morning was short lived, most of it going well to the north west of here. Since 0915 g.m.t it's been mainly dry and cloudy, just a few short bursts of light rain, and the thick fog cleared by 1030 g.m.t.

Very mild at the moment with the temperaure at 15.7c.

Just went out to the shop and several roads are flooded already. Still raining very heavily...

[SP1986]

Granted todays weather isn't everyones cup of tea but I found it very interesting indeed.

At 1pm temperatures were circa 20C, with a dewpoint to match, heavy rain at times, but nowhere near as heavy as the rain that appears to have been reported. 13.7mm of rain have falling today, making it the single wettest day of the year here!

Rain has stopped here now, still pretty cloudy with the odd light rain now and again. Peaked at 19.5c here around 40mins ago. Currently 19.1c with a dew point of 17.6c

Yuck overcast dull and drizzly day with unpleasant humidity, can't wait for clearer weather, much colder dew points from tomorrow with cold nights.

[johnholmes]

wind is slowly swinging from SSW-W following on from some quite heavy rain, at one time falling at 37.6mm p hour, temp still up at 18.1C with dewpoint on 16.3C, more like mid summer dewpoints, and a max today of 21.2C.

Be a shock by late evening as the cold air comes in and even more so in the morning-maybe a min of 4-5C.

[sunny scunny]

Cloudy and dry with light winds.Feeling mild though with a current temp of 20c.

Ive been watching this incredible little feature ;-

http://www.sat24.com/homepage.aspx?html=zoom&xas=200&yas=200

its a vortex spinning away off the southern irish coast heading roughly east.

Ive been watching it for well over 24 hours. Yesterday morning it was a singular

feature I can only describe that looked like a minature hurricane eye included.

At around 11.00Am on 5/10/09 it was poisitoned roughly 400 miles WSW of Normandy

and has drifted NNE to join the tail end of the slow moving front over SW Ireland.

I cannot ever remember seeing a feature like this for its longetivity. It resembled

a "Super" supercell yesterday morning, and began to take on the form of a "minature

hurricane" by lunchtime yesterday. and by jove, its still there going strong. Looks

like an abnormality in the troposphere causing a long lived vortex. Anyone know where

we can find Visable light sat pictures for the last 24 hours ( daylight ) to verify

this... All very odd indeed. Surely Im not the only one who has noticed this, and there

is another post somewhere else where this is already being discussed.

Here you go.. run these for the last 24 hours and take a look

Heavy rain here... Looking at the radar we're right in the fireing range, the rain is coming in from Wales.

[Milhouse]

It became very muggy and humid around midday with a max of 19.8c. Some light to moderate rain early on followed by a drier interlude before the dark clouds gathered. Some really quite heavy rain now. Looking forward to waking up to a lovely crisp and sunny morning tomorrow.

[PubliusEnigma]

[sunny scunny]

The drought is well and truly over

[trevbp]

As expected a cloudy start, with a little rain around, eventually recording only 2.4mm. A few brighter spells through the afternoon and warm and humid as expected....and yet saw 2 joe public wearing gloves. (one also a scarf), at lunchtime ...yes gloves . Looking forward to the potential 'drenching' overnight into tomorrow....give that rain gauge some work to do....I say potential, as 'heavy rain' has a habit of fragmenting and dissipating as it approaches these parts !!!!
