Started getting a headache about 10 mins ago, surefire sign there's a storm coming..

Sui · 13 Aug 2020 at 14:20

Last batch of rain bypassed completely, just decided it wanted no part of Brighton.

Looks like there's some more heading over the Channel so hopefully that will hit us.

So dark here now, heavy downpour and some big bangs all around, seems like it's just to the north. Loving it, so happy right now..... My dog not so much, sorry Piper

Send some over to Fareham would you. We had a tiny bit of rain and then it stopped

Cornwall started off cold and grey this morning but it's hot and sunny now.

Same here, I was about to venture out for a very gentle ride at 1300ish, when it drizzled for a while and then fizzled out.

There were a few thunder claps just after 1400, but it's remained bone dry in Bitterne, while a band of heavy rain is now tipping down Fritham to Hursley.

Much cooler outside, still boiling in my flat but better than yesterday. Less humid at least.

No Fulking way that storm was ever going to make it to Brighton.

Think I'm finally going to get a direct hit after a few have missed just to the west. I can hear lots of thunder from South at the moment!

It ******* hosed down while I was on the work phone and was coming in through the windows

Clouding over and wind is kicking up a bit in Bexley(SE London/Kent). Just heard some thunder as well, here we go!

darkgen · 13 Aug 2020 at 15:42

^ Aye BUT still muggy AF. I hope the rains come.

explicit4u · 13 Aug 2020 at 15:45

A few distant rumbles from the south, looks like it might veer a bit too west to hit me in Camden.

Ditto but this is highly dissapointing! Was forecasted to hit just after midnight yesterday and all we've had is some rumble just now.

Basically Noah's Ark is playing out here in Coulsdon!

pepp77 · 13 Aug 2020 at 15:56

Just had a drop in both temp and visibility in my office over the past 10 minutes. I think the rain is finally coming.

Ysmalari · 13 Aug 2020 at 15:58

Finally a massive storm here, I'm really hoping it drops the humidity for the rest of the evening, very much had enough of this heatwave!

XeNoN89 · 13 Aug 2020 at 16:09

Temp dropped to 20C. Relief!
