The storm shield held up well today. Wish i knew how to disable the ruddy thing

Maybe the now defunct News of the World could have hacked it.

It is hard to say the clouds are hardly moving, but some of the lower bases are moving from south to north.

Some interesting cloudscapes at the moment.

No thunder here but this is a pretty prolonged shower (been going for about an hour and no real sign that it will let up)

I see that on the radar..its wierd because if you look at the raintoday radar it seems to be 'ballooning' its way west..think were just about to get hit here as well.

All I can say is I hope France is more stormy than Dronfield because that's where I'm headed for two weeks

Nah, we'll nick them all

Looks like the showers have died slightly in the east but the forecast is for them to return through the night and tomorrow.
