 Thunder what thunder since last night we only had rain not even a flash of lightning never mind a crack of thunder and met office still had yellow warning until 10 a M tomorrow morning 

[Gord]

So...do we have a chance tonight? OK, I accept that the big storms will be to the southeast but the Met Office forecasts I've seen have the general area of thunderstorms moving across us.

[I remember Atlantic 252]

Wednesday looks really crap, north sea mist and very chilly wind off the cold north sea, could take until 3pm here for mist to lift

[DIS1970]

Heatwave and thunderstorm risk should cancelled in this area now

[Gord]

That little cell just to our west is actually holding together remarkably well...even though it's not been electrically active for a while. It could just spark off again, you never know.

Clouds to my east are looking a bit more interesting too.

What is coming out of France is far more interesting, but what direction will that lot take and how intense it'll be if it does come our way, only time will tell ?!?!

Sadly I don't think it is coming our way, though I wouldn't rule out some kind of further thundery activity.

Looks like our little cell is piping right down again now. I reckon as it continues to meander northeast, it could wake up again and surprise somewhere else.

[Dancerwithwings]

Right mess out there.....unless you like the ️

 well the yellow warning for thunderstorms have come and gone not even a flash of lightning or a crack of thunder anyway here all we have this morning is moderate rain 

[Snowyowl9]

Very heavy rain this morning adding to the massive rain amounts this june no thunder but an extra 40mm more water logged fields and flooding,now thick fog in june lol.

[cyclonic happiness]

Pretty awful day here. almost 1 inch of rainfall, 96% humidity and the temps are a disappointing 16.4'c

[Josh Rubio]

Heavy and persistent rain here in the morning and at midday, with drizzle falling all day. 

Another very wet and dull day.

[davehsug]

So sick of this gloom. 3 days now with no sun. The temperatures may have changed, the weather hasn't. 

[Snowyowl9]

Did see the sun briefly today for about 1 min.

[Neil Harris]

Well that was a vile old "summer's day" and we are still suffering some mizzle now.

 Are we gonna get any of the heatwave? There is suddenly a rather vital cricket match on Sunday.

[Josh Rubio]

The mist has started to roll in as darkness descends upon us. Couldn’t feel any further away from summer weather right now. 

[Derbyshire_snow]

I am only thankful I do not live on the east coast with weather like this it is completely vile getting fed up of this gloomy cold weather now.

 

To think only across the channel it is 30c warmer than here

[weirpig]

currently 12.8c  and dp of 12.5     not great to be honest    

[davehsug]

I have to report a shadow, and there appear to be some blue patches in the sky!

Of course it was just the briefest tease, now fully overcast again.

like here you mean, capital of the north sea haar

[Sweatyman]

so when is this disgusting muck gonna clear off then? Sick to death of it.

[Josh Rubio]

BBC suggests we’ll see increasing sunshine from tomorrow onwards although I’ll believe it when I see it. 

[RobR]

I saw a glimpse of light about 9pm but then it went. Tuesday night was hideously dark which is a shame as these are our longest light evenings. I don't see this lifting tomorrow but still. Can hope for Saturday to be at least one nice day.

[davehsug]

Total change this morning! Cloudless blue sky and a moderate breeze. Glorious!
