Im in kent too 10 mins south of canterbury. Where abouts are you as its still sunny and hot here.

Dartford, North-west Kent, right by the QE2 bridge where the M25 crosses the Thames. About 45 miles from Canterbury.

Think the storm is heading your way, Im not sure. My friend in Guildford said he had a storm earlier, so maybe its slowly moving eastward.

Erroneous post. Did some research.

Pretty heavy rain earlier which I went outside to run about in (Don't ask). Now just dull... the deep breaths before the plunge hopefully.
