Our/your rain is tonight forget today,

Your turn will come. 

I'm watching that lot to the south and hoping it doesn't die out before it reaches us 

[Methuselah]

Could just see the eastern edge of the t-storms that were way out west...It's still rather muggy out there!

[Norfolk Sheep]

Blimey that one almost blew out the windows 

[Dami]

 

[chrisbell-nottheweatherman]

We've had some rain here, but, as yet, none of Norfolk Sheep's storms (though, had I been outside, I'd have heard them.

[Captain Shortwave]

There was some heavy rain for a time, but no thunder despite the weather stations surrounding me reporting thunder. Heh, looks like we have only started, it could be a very wet night.

[chrisbell-nottheweatherman]

Very wet here now at last.

Very wet night to come, it's very humid here like I said over in the thunder mad thread almost steamy! 

[Blazerblue]

Still not a drop and by the way it's been tracking all day, it looks like it's going to carry on going around us, missing the coast here entirely  I guess the easterly is pushing it away.

Back to the usual mind numbing UK dross. 

Looks like winter outside. Steady rain and dank... oh joy!! At least the 'no rain' whingers have their wish. 

Greece in 12 days... can't wait! Return to sun & heat.

Unfortunately, agriculture and gardening would be heavily affected should we end-up with a Mediterranean climate.  Many areas needed rain.

[Dami]

I can't wait either.

Shouldn't you be outside dancing in your raincoat in the rain Dami? 

You've been banging on about 'rain' since it rained last... get out there any enjoy it with hubs & bubs - it's summer after all.

Yes I read on news the other day about a water shortage, but couldn't remember which area of country was affected. 

[Dami]

Most of England needs it, actually, but the south-east is particularly badly-affected.  Enjoy your holiday!

[Jimmyh]

This rain is mad 

[tomp456]

A standard wet night here by the looks of things!

France nicking all the storms yet again.

[Jimmyh]

Gotta say no standard wet night here most of the roads flooded round here hammering down for hours now 

[alexisj9]

Just rain here no storms as yet, rain not even all that heavy.

So are you still dry then.

It appears we did get some rain overnight about 4 cm of rain in each of my large buckets and the pond was topped up too, garden will be happy, slight drizzle still this morning.
