Ended up as a decent second half of the day here.

Rain cleared through mid afternoon and dry with sunny spells since.

Temperatures reached 19c in the end but it felt warm enough.

[4wd]

Just short of 20mm today, mostly in a shower about 4pm with peak rain rate briefly 480mm/hr

[iand61]

Dry and sunny start to Sunday, although breezy.

If the threatened showers keep away from NW England it will certainly be a usable sort of day.

I just had very heavy rain and bit of hail here. Just cleared up right now. I'm pretty sure could be thunderstorms this afternoon/evening.

Actually there is a warning being put out for NW England for Thunderstorms tomorrow:

 

YELLOW WARNING of RAIN

This warning is in force for northwest England and parts of the Midlands.

A warm, unstable airmass will affect the area leading to heavy, slow-moving showers and a risk of hail and thunderstorms.

Rainfall totals of 20-30mm are likely locally, but could exceed 50mm.

The public should be aware of the risk of localised flooding.

Valid on Friday from 1000 until 2000.

 

Tomorrow is going to be interesting for us
