A disappointing weekend to be honest AWD we just missed out yesterday and looks as though as we will miss out today also

Yeah I know. It hasn't been the luckiest period for us. Although, not following forecasts/models lately, this period has caught me a little by surprise. Anything this time of year is always a bonus too.

Very happy with this weekends thundery weather. Began with some downpours last night and a few flashes around 9pm, some more rain and lightning around 1-3am then another thunderstorm at 11am ish. 

 

Its great to be on the coast at this time of year as not only can you get a good view out to sea, in most but the stronger set ups like today, convective stuff fails to penetrate inland much. :)

N NW London, bits of the M25 getting a fair ole pasting..Welwyn Garden City across to Luton next? Then possibly Cambridge E Anglia?

I can confirm that mate. Best storm of the year so far and yet more rattling in......frequent lightning, booming thunder and tropical type rainfall at times here in NW London. Posted Image
