That was some amount of rain last night! I’d forgotten how noisy rain could be on Velux windows in the dead of night

Heavy rain earlier and still steady heavy drizzle now. I saw just one flash of lightning last night about half eleven, it was awayyy south of me maybe as far as the border.

I love how the areas outside the warning got the thunder/lightning earlier.

Can’t see much happening in the West today - SE/E/NE have a chance later.

As always with thunderstorm forecasts though...

All the best!

Edit: Convective weather forecast for today:

WWW.CONVECTIVEWEATHER.CO.UK

Forecasting thunderstorms and severe convective weather across the British Isles and Ireland for up to the next 5 days.

Scottish highlights:

A few isolated elevated thunderstorms will be possible E Scotland and E England during Tuesday daytime.

An increase in thunderstorm coverage, primarily elevated, is expected from Cumbria northwards across a swathe of Scotland during Tuesday night.

Explosive deep convection could evolve by late afternoon and more especially into the evening hours almost anywhere in England, Wales and southern Scotland.

Getting excited again after reading all that!

Seen one flash earlier but was mainly loud thunder, more cells developing to my w / sw again but if this high cloud could b**ger off that would be great so difficult these days here to see structure

That’s the really annoying thing - love watching the convection building (convective clouds) and of course cumulonimbus approaching surrounded by blue sky! 

Convective weather mentioned a swathe of Scotland at risk of elevated thunderstorms overnight in his forecast...

That looks pretty decent! If it actually happens of course!  

@Ross B Yes it’s game on now the warnings have been cancelled! 

As ever...we shall see what happens! Interesting day/night ahead. 

Bring back Summer 2019:

@Mr Frost hopefully and yeah seems to be a regular issue here trying to see structure but fingers crossed we all get some nice storms (those who want them of course)

Much better day than I was expecting (cloud did clear for a bit but just came back) but for a while there had decent sun. Now the waiting game to see if there's round 2 (with the bangs this time hopefully)!

Eastern Scotland got a specific storm mention by Chris Fawkes on BBC News 24 weather just now.  Slow moving and one "we'll need to keep an eye on".

Couple of thundery cells near Crieff 74B3A1AF-2956-4419-9FC4-D9816991C0BA.thumb.jpeg.4e3c853318748eef9c39089b5309c6a7.jpeg does feel very still like something is brewing.

I had a nice spot picked out to watch the impending light show forecast for today but as ever its a anti-climax, apart from a rumble or two and a shoosh of rain early on its been quiet.

The BBC must get its weather forecasts from the SNP fantasy land sources...well that says it all.

The radar isn't showing anything heading this direction either...bugger.
