[Summer Sun]

High level cloud in Darlo this morning but the sun is burning through very nicely best make the most of today as its back to normal from tomorrow and through the weekend

 

Currently 19.3c every chance of us getting the warmest day of the year so far today

[Boro Snow]

Looking out towards the dales they seems to be a lot of cloud coming our way

[Summer Sun]

Cloudy and fairly muggy now in Darlo doesn't look like there is any significant rainfall on the way

[Summer Sun]

Since mid afternoon its been lovely here not a cloud in the sky shame its not going to last but its still a nice reminder of what we can get

[Summer Sun]

The early morning sunshine has been replaced by cloud there is a band of rain across Yorkshire currently which needs watching as it may get to us by mid morning

 

EDIT

 

As soon as I said it clouded over the sun has broke through again!

Steady light rain over Darlo currently looks like the heaviest stuff is over the north sea currently

[Boro Snow]

That lovely rain smell you get when it hasn't rained for a while, even my daughter noticed it

[Summer Sun]

Looking like tomorrow's rain will be a lighter and patchier than previously thought

 

Today still looks like we may see some sharp showers this afternoon

[Summer Sun]

Well the cloud keeps threatening here but so far we've stayed dry all day

 

Still warm and humid at times currently 19.7c though it does feel fresher in the breeze now a sign of things to come

[Cloud 10]

The region may actually see enough rain to wet the ground overnight if it can make it over the pennines!

 

 

 

Could be some thundery interest on sunday afternoon as well over eastern areas.

 

 

 

Some more showers on monday before it settles down again for a few days,must say

its been a good summer so far in the North East.

EDIT

 

Looks like the radar was down before plenty of showers on show now but its still dry in Darlo

[peterf]

heavy showers here.

[Cloud 10]

There was some heavy rain in the early hours of the morning,although it doesn't take 

long to dry up which is a far cry from this time last year!

 

 

 

Still on for some heavy showers tomorrow afternoon,maybe with thunder.

[peterf]

looks like the radar is down.

[Summer Sun]

looks like the radar is down.

 

Yeah its working again now

[Summer Sun]

Got the first rain shower of the afternoon over Darlo currently it should move through within the next 40 minutes

[Summer Sun]

First shower of the day overhead now in darlo

[Alex95]

Only heard one rumble of thunder so far but there's been plenty of downpours with hail. It looks even worse south of here in North Yorkshire at the moment.

[Rollo]

Torrential rain here accompanied so far by to flashes of lightning and 1 distant rumble on thuner and the other much louder and longer--- FLAMING JUNE!!

[Alex95]

Decent display of lightning directly north of me.

[Andy_]

Decent display of lightning directly north of me.

 

Just heard the thunder from that but didn't see the lightning.... some very torrential downpours in the last few hours here 

[Cloud 10]

Yes,looking very threatening over Newcastle way at the moment.

 

[Alex95]

The thunder seems to be less frequent now. The worst of the rain seems to have been further west this time so I only got a heavy shower rather than a downpour.

[Summer Sun]

Most of the showers have passed over quickly in Darlo so far the sky is becoming black again somethings brewing again whether it amounts to anything is another matter

[Cloud 10]

Had a couple of downpours here today but still not heard any thunder!

 

I'm hoping thats going to change in the next hour!
