Can hear some big distant rumbles now. Probably from the cells to the SE near Marple.

Nice 1.

The only rumbles here have been at the dinner table after our veg!

Frustrating day weather wise, showers to the left, showers to the right, dry slot all day. Well at least it doesn't do that when snow is about, oh hang on a minute.....

A few "dodgy" days coming up with more rain, some heavy, and possibly thunder but long term it could be a lot worse - by the looks of things we're not going to be stuck under a perpetual trough. I'm enjoying this summer up to now, we've had a bit of a variety of weather. Just no proper heatwave but I'm not too fussed about that. Low to mid 20s suits me better, can get everything done without much of a sweat.

Going dark here with the freesat TV losing signal in the heavy rain, but nothing 'electrical' with this cell just yet.

Loud thunder 5 minutes ago as I turned  cars around for tomorrow's work. Made me jump as I thought we'd had our share for today. 

Not showing on lightning maps ??

Not heard thunder here yet, probably just receive some heavy showers through the evening.  Sunset is apparently in 45 mins time here, but it may as well have been 30 minutes ago...the skies are that leaden.

Not had much in the way of thunder today, just a few rumbles this morning but had a big pretty big storm last night with a few big rumbles so I’m satisfied. Hopefully we will get some sunny spells between the showers this week.

Very disappointing weekend, thunderwise.

It’s always a lottery when it comes to thunderstorms. Some places hit the jackpot, some places just get the scraps and some places don’t get anything at all.

Huge blob spinning my way. Flooding is possible from this long deluge.

Feeling a bit thunder starved myself but I've had great fun this weekend tracking the regions activity.  The skies have been awesome to watch, some great towering structures and alot of beautiful convective 'mess' a bit like a Turner painting.  Glad things have calmed a bit, beginning to get a bit of whiplash from looking up at every given moment. It's been very wet today and I didn't get the storm I hoped for, but I have thoroughly enjoyed weather watching this weekend.

Local amateur station showing 33mm of rain has fallen since midnight. A wet day. Surface water is the most ubiquitous I've seen it for a couple of months.

I must say though, since the weather 'broke' everything is looking a lot fresher/greener than it was.

Gotta agree CC. As the rain is pouring on the front window I just checked our total for today and it stands at 31mm with a fair bit still to come looking at the radar. 40mm or so would be 3 or 4 times the rainfall for the whole of June. Feast or famine weather continues.

We seem to flip from very dry to very wet in short space of time. Very dry April, very wet May, very dry June, very wet July! Well hope not!

Video of the thunderstorm last night here. Make sure your volume is turned up!

 

Did another two videos before that but they didn't record for some reason.

Quite a bit of heavy rain last night, from what I could hear....and now the winds have switched westerly there's no problem with small nasty clusters of showers ganging together to deliver their load here...the last one which has just been particularly heavy.  Ground now waterlogged, but drainage should be decent with relatively dry June.  Less showers as we pass through the morning.

Yes, it was still raining at 11pm last night, but a dry bright start to this morning. Will it last...?

Hammering down again. So much for the washing getting dry on the line.

    Dubai Floods: Another Warning Sign for Desert Regions?

    The flooding in the Middle East desert city of Dubai earlier in the week followed record-breaking rainfall. It doesn't rain very often here like other desert areas, but like the deadly floods in Libya last year showed, these rain events are likely becoming more extreme due to global warming.
