Just as I mention how dry it has been, we get the wettest 24 hours of the year so far. Very wet through the early hours with 22.5mm of rain. Cloudy and damp this morning and misty, fog on the hills around 500 feet, feeling cool. At observation, cloud thinning and breaking up, sunny spells. Cloud began to bubble up again through the morning and in to the afternoon, but with sunny spells continuing, no showers here through, feeling quite pleasant.

[Aaron]

12.5c, damp and overcast.

Hours of heavy, prolonged rain? Honestly I doubt it..

[Jack Wales]

Looks like another thunderstorm is brewing up over Tonyrefail again today.

We had one yesterday which I would normally have enjoyed, however as I was out running at the top of a mountain, surrounded by trees and soaking wet, I did feel slightly vulnerable with the thunder cracking directly overhead!!!

[DeepSnow]

Currently have some moderate and at times heavy rain, had one flash of lightning and 2 rumbles of thunder so far and its feeling cool at 14.7C.

[Andy Bown]

After a misty, dull and occasionally drizzly morning a brief period of sunshine has been followed by torrential rain for the last half an hour!

14.2c after a max so far of 15.4c with humidity 84% and it's calm.

[Ben_Cambs]

After a wet morning, the rain cleared for a time but it has been raining heavily for the past hour or so, about 11mm has fallen today so far. Currently a cool 14.5C

[Isolated Frost]

North Hampshire, West Berkshire and South Oxfordshire have just had the ultimate pummeling according to radar!

Here it's raining for a while after a stop start drizzly morning. Cooler air from the NW arriving tonight and tomorrow, so hopefully a slightly fresher situation this weekend and Monday.

Bands of rain and scattered heavy showers around Britain today - maxima will be mightily surpressed.

[GulberwickWeather]

Bright spells to begin with but more cloudy now, a dry day though, certainly much drier than its going to be tomorrow and Sunday!!

Rain, but nowhere near as heavy as forecast, I wonder when the heavy stuff will arrive?

[AderynCoch]

A mostly dull day but the sun has now come out.

[SP1986]

and just over the river a mostly sunny day ! It reached 20.2C earlier, fell back to 18.5C mid afternoon, despite the continuing sunshine.

[J10]

We missed the worst of the showers overnight and this morning was dry with some sunshine but mostly cloudy.

This afternoon we have seen some showers, with one around 5pm at the supermarket with torrential rain, which would give localized flooding if it continued for a period of time. Back home it appears the worst of the rain is very slightly further east. There are some black clouds nearby and from the top of the hill you could see the clouds going right down to the ground, indicating the heavy rain. Temps around 16c
