Not a bad day wtih plenty of sunshine, a few clouds around but not obscuring the sun persistently. 23.3°C the max at: 13:44.

[Mapantz]

Sunny spells and 21.1°C here today.

there are some tower clouds growing out side warminster in Wiltshire in south and west england

[Lyn-M]

Rather hazy towards the Fleet and Portland around midday.  Quite breezy there on the top of Abbotsbury Hill too.

And now it’s clouded over again but the boring type rather than the excitement further north. 16.6°C

[Andy Bown]

There was a sharp shower on the Eastern side of town Tom. It looked heavier up the hill towards the golf course.

Hopefully tommorow many will see their first thunderstorms here in the South West.

I'm more hopeful for Wednesday, but let's face it with that low anchored off the French coast, we're trying to spot a sock in the washing machine from 30 yards.

[Andy Bown]

Second evening in a row with a lovely sky to the WNW. Surprised there’s nothing on the radar from this line of towers.

[AWD]

Seems the focus of any convective activity remains up towards the Midlands and NW England through the next few days.  Obviously, as with the nature of forecasting convective weather, showers/storms could form and effect any one location, certainly no where is immune, but all current forecasting tools and brains certainly favour the north more so than the south.

Dry with sunny spells all day and a bit warmer than yesterday was. Reached 18.1°C, currently 15.2°C

The clouds are growing up  around Warminster in Wiltshire 

[matt111]

Cloudy start as has been the case for the last few days. 16.3°C

[jtay]

Ignoring the apps of course, but...

The Euro4 does have a little cell popping up over Southampton Water, later this afternoon. We'll see. We've had a few drops already, so a bit more hopeful for today now.

[Andy Bown]

Tom’s pictures can cover my post too. Convective heaven all around Warminster, large raindrops falling and steamy sun too. The next few hours will either be fun or frustrating lol.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Cloudy and sunny here in PSJ .Waiting to see if weather warnings are correct.

[CheesepuffScott]

Cloudy with bright spells throughout the morning... a shower going through now. 19.7°C

[Rich_Clements]

Managed to mow the lawn before anything exciting happens, I am now a sweaty mess yuk!

[Rich_Clements]

Just as I typed the above down comes the rain....

Seems to keep picking up over Lyndhurst. Must be all that orographic lift from Bolton's bench.

[offerman]

Hi Andy/Tom im just hop skip jump from you both on the other side of Cley Hill and can see those really towering/growing now too. If we fail today then Wednesday does look considerably more unstable than today.

LOL,

I used to love it down there in Lyndhurst. The Boltons bench comment made me laugh so much. Used to play rounders at the bottom and also sledge down that.(Just like the Alps slopes there isnt it :-))

[matt111]

Just like the last few days it’s brightened up now. Expect it’ll be like the last few days too where it stays dry and mostly sunny for the rest of the day while areas to the north see showers and storms. The main difference being those areas might be closer today. 17.2°C

As long as you took your sledge home and didn't dump it in the car park, like the chavvy Watersiders. (I can say that, I'm Watersider).
