Not sure why it happens so often to be honest. It's only about 1 in 10 that ever go through completely intact.

Very squally rain just passed here with some very gusty southwesterly winds.

Quite a lot of 30mph+ gusts recorded on the top of our tree tower.

[Mapantz]

Couldn't be anymore perfect .. lol

[matt111]

Apart from up north it seems to have lost it’s intensity but hasn’t broken up completely apart from one bit of it. Which bit would that be?

[Dorsetbred]

The line is breaking up over Dorset, "We have the Power"....to blow any multicell line convection into shreds...

[Mapantz]

At least the wind gusts/speed have been impressive down here. Windiest day since owning this station.

 

[matt111]

Hang on. Is it intensifying again?

Maybe not. It tried though but looks like it’s failed.

Weather Display is the software which generates all the data. however, that site has been designed by someone to show the data itself.

[Mapantz]

Another anticlimactic squall! The drizzle a few hours ago was worse. lol

We had a bit of it. I wouldn't have wanted to be out in it, but all in all, a bit meh.

Picked up a new record gust and wind average here today after 15 years of collecting data.

[ThundersnowDays]

The rain was the most intense I had seen for a while. 

[matt111]

And now it has intensified again, except.. you guessed it. 

[jtay]

Most impressive thing was the temp drop, post sqall. From 12.8C to 9.6C.

Highest gusts of the day were both 27mph at 8:40am and 10:55am.

Yep that gap formed before it reached Mapantz, stayed as it passed over me, and has now missed you, just typical it happens so often.

[matt111]

Well I guess it’s passed through here since the temperatures suddenly dropped and the winds gone from very gusty to a light breeze. 

[karlos1983]

Weeeeeeeeeeeee

cold front anyone ?

Watching the same happening here 10.7°C to 9.4°C in next to no time and still dropping. The sudden wind drop was also quite impressive.
