Strikes are now being picked up near Telford. Very heavy rain here as well.

 

...things seem to be happening again.

[Shane Wheeldon]

Well that woke me up!!! Big flash lit the bedroom up followed by a huge bang! Looks like round 2 is about to start.

[Summer of 95]

Nothing here yet, but no moaning now, had my fix for this summer! Something about years ending in 5 round here.....

[Summer of 95]

Wait, just went to let dog out and saw another flash somewhere... Rain picking up too

[Polar Maritime]

Hazy sunny spells here this morning, Temp 17c. Rain should reach me by 1/2 am looking at the models.

[WillinGlossop]

21c at 830am..... Lovely.....

[conor123]

Cloudy and muggy here, the odd very hazy sunny spell, 20.5c

 

Looks like there's a cell on the leading edge of the front about to slam into Hereford area.

Well I was right about pretty Much no more action last night bar the odd isolated flash. Maybe a little something on the front but otherwise all quiet again now.

Course there is but it would be a bonus. Now Mr.Front Over Wales, either move NE and give us some of those cells, or SW to leave us in the clear bit. Don't just dangle useless cloud over us....

[Barbmac]

After a cloudy dry start to the day, the weather's turned diabolical again and we have torrential rain.

[Summer of 95]

Any storms in those bright echoes down over Worcs and mid Wales? Might just get here...

Gone very dark, something is coming though won't be a repeat of last night. Check out this lightning map:

Just started raining but wind really picked up. Never seen such a windy summer.

[Dancerwithwings]

locally heavy, gradually spreading to most areas through the day.

Autumn style morning, foggy, usually here foggy start means wet later, tomorrow looking a write off

[Staffordshire]

I've been in Shropshire all weekend and I was lucky enough to of been in the trail of that storm, pretty impressive, although I'd of liked it to have held of for a bit longer so it would have been darker.
