Torrential rain here. Flowing water everywhere. No flashes seen or rumble heard yet though

[P-M]

Torrential rain roads are like rivers in places but no thunder. Good to see some potent convection though bodes well for this afternoon. 

[BornFromTheVoid]

I take that back, loud clap of thunder just now

[P-M]

Torrential shower after torrential shower over Washington it's pure tanking down

[P-M]

Thunder heard how I've not seen rain like this in ages. 

[4wd]

Not here yet but radar is curious to watch with various cells boiling up in-situ e.g near Whitby.

[P-M]

This was in my local shopping centre earlier the rain was that bad it was pouring through the roof. Video isn't mine.

Typical in the middle of the school run, soaked

My daughter comes out later than most schools so hopefully it’s done by then

Missed that again, have last field of hay just ready to bale but today the damp wind off the sea and drizzly patches earlier mean it's just not quite dry enough - but sun has broke through the past half hour when it's too late to realistically do much.

Yellow warning for thunderstorms issued from 6pm today until 9am tomorrow

Scattered thunderstorms moving north tonight and early Wednesday could lead to some power cuts and travel delays.

What to expect

• There is a slight chance that power cuts could occur and other services to some homes and businesses could be lost
• There is a small chance of damage to property from lightning strikes, hail or strong winds
• There is a small chance of a few homes and businesses likely, leading to some damage to buildings or structures
• There is a small chance driving conditions will be affected by spray, standing water and/or hail, leading to longer journey times by car and bus

Scattered thunderstorms are expected to affect parts of south-west and southern England this evening, moving north quickly across the UK overnight, clearing Scotland and eastern England by mid-morning on Wednesday. Although some places will miss the thunderstorms altogether, where they do occur there is the potential for frequent lightning, hail and gusty winds, as well as sudden downpours in a few places.

26.8 here today equal with 29th June.
Met Office suggest Thursday slightly hotter with minimum of 20C

[4wd]

About 10mm overnight but not exactly torrential, strong gusty wind as the squall line went through.
I only noticed one big flash and rumble having been woken up by wind buffeting through window, no doubt there were more

[Summer Sun]

Torrential rain for a short time around 4am with some thunder in the distance 

The storms looked to be more widespread than forecast by the models

[Boro Snow]
