South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion 23/04/17 onwards

[Gibby]

Been some amazing showers here in North-East Somerset today. We have had 26mm of rain since 3pm as the train of convergence showers across the spine of SW England bombards my area one after another. Some crazy rain rates at times but amazingly only distant rumbles of thunder before the first storm arrived before 15:00.

No rain at all here during the day following last nights deluge. 

[knocker]

Very pleasant morning with earlier Sc dissipated. temp 13c and a breeze from the south west.

Sun shining brightly after yesterday's rain band pulses . Would like to ride my new bike this morning before more showers arrive ! 

[Dorsetbred]

Refreshing start to the day, 12.2°C currently 20.2°C, and partly cloudy, and light breeze from the SW.

[matt111]

Not a bad day with a cloudier start but mostly sunny for much of the day, wouldn't mind the temperature being a bit higher though. 18.6°C. 

[Andy Bown]

Tomorrow's forecast has gradually downgraded since Saturday from a dry/sunny day to scattered showers and now it's predicted to have widespread heavy showers! 

As for today, largely similar to yesterday with plenty of sunshine and a streamer of showers moving a few miles NW/N of Warminster for much of the afternoon.

 I do just wonder if tomorrow will actually end up similar again.

Beautiful sunset! Only a slight shower today but monthly rainfall total is at 79.3mm that's more than April May and June added together!

[knocker]

Pleasant morning with broken Sc and a smidgen of Cu. Temp 13C and a breeze from the SSW

[jtay]

[matt111]

Just started raining here, quite heavy as well. Also quite gusty since the rain arrived. 16.0°C

Quite a deluge here, 16.8mm. The charts have significantly downgraded rainfall totals on the latest runs. The MetO last night, showed heavy rain until midnight, that has now changed, and its supposed to have cleared through by 3pm. That's a 9 hour difference within 12 hours of the forecast.

They may want to revise that looking at what's heading NE in the English Channel, looks similar to this morning at first glance.
