South East, London and East Anglia regional discussion - 8th February onwards

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Torrential rain here now for over an hour.. some seriously impressive rainfall rates for such a long period of time.. When I mean we are flooded the garden is just water.. the road out front is flooded... Luckily they built all the houses up!

[Freeze]

After the early morning heavy showers its been dry all day bit of sun bit of cloud and still windy. Reached 20c.

Managed to avoid the rain with a well timed walk. There hasn't been too much here today, most of the showers just passing by but I think it might properly rain here in SWF soon.

Anyone been flooded

Late afternoon all

After a bright and breezy start and middle to the day here in lowland East London, it's gone downhill rapidly in the past two hours as the shower/squall line has edged SE and now lies right through central London almost on the line of the Thames.

A succession if heavy showers merging into a more continuous spell of moderate rain currently.

The NW radar "suggests" the shower line is edging further SE so the worst may be over for us in the next hour or so.

Remarkably wet summer we’re having worse than 2007, 2011 and 2012 locally.

Warm humid day here, topped off by every flying ant in the county deciding today was the day to come out and play.

[Captain Shortwave]

Another rather benign and warm day. Back in the region after a couple of days away. Perfectly reasonable conditions to do stuff outdoors. Looks like a high of 25c over parts of East Anglia.

[suffolk lady]

Had a really warm pleasant one here, and all the bushes trees and shrubs have taken on gigantic proportions now.

[Blazerblue]

Cloudy with 78% humidity, vile. Bit of a breeze but not enough to make it feel comfortable out walking.

[Freeze]

85% rh here light winds sunny and 19c feels muggy.

[lassie23]

The media has been full of 'record breaking heatwave in coming', stories but the Met Office computer says NO

[lassie23]

P.S where are all the wasps?

[NYCSnow]

Odd sort of day. Early grey and drizzle has turned into some sunny spells where it feels warm but can quickly change to cool and blustery when the thicker cloud passes over.
