    Glorious day here in Yorkshire. 28 degrees and very gentle breeze. Sitting in garden. I can feel a cold beer coming on. 
    Not even a hint of a breeze in this part of Yorkshire

    We had a bit of rain, huge raindrops, over Plumstead. Didn’t hear any thunder or see any lightning.
    Maybe later. 🌧 ☔️ 
    We had nothing in Thamesmead apart from a little bit of  Thunder .

    One clap of thunder and about 30 seconds of rain in Sunny Sidcup
    The rain's not very common in Sidcup

    Was in Greenwich park and heard the thunder a few miles away but was still lovely and sunny where we were.

    Sunny Cornwall is blazing hot.  Gazing into the blue yonder, not a cloud in sight.
    Like the Med right now.

    Everybody's dream of what Cornwall is like. The reality is usually a bit different. :smile:

    Same here in the Cotswolds. Hope it holds out for a couple more days. Eldest son and daughter-in-law coming to visit us in our new house. Not been able to see them face-to-face since December 2019.

    down in hot and humid East Sussex, nothing yet. Had thunder rumbling around yesterday late afternoon for two or three hours but no rain. Was off last Monday, took the dogs up to Hastings Country Park for a walk. Nice weather. Suddenly clouded over, massive thunderstorm, got drenched, roads back through Hastings and Ore were like lakes, flooding everywhere, cars pulling over, rain like I'd never seen before. Got home five miles away, not a drop.

    Cotswolds, that's a bit posh, innit?

    I thought you were up in Yorkshire?

    I've just driven from Rochester to Maidstone and the roads were horrendous, just like rivers in places.  Unbelievably there were still drivers with no lights and driving as if there was no water at all.

    To be fair, you were driving down the River Medway

    Hope you’re not playing golf at Pedham, it’s been struck twice according to the lightening app.
    edit - but not in the same place

    Can confirm this, taken sky out, phone said 11mm in the last few hours, no idea if that’s accurate or not.

    In Bexleyheath and it hammered down around 1:45. Sounded like a lightening strike just outside the house. Massive bang, never heard a noise like it. We now have a Sky engineer coming out tomorrow to replace our very dead broadband router!
    Lightning strike just by the station according to lightningmaps 
    Not heard of lightning maps before but looking on it there’s been one not far from me. There was a flash followed immediately by a massive bang 😐. @Eynsfordaddick it’s in Sparepenny Lane. 
    Wow! Very close to me in Eynsford Rise. :)
    The map shows one near you 😳- hope it’s not too close

    A few rumbles of thunder in Golders Green followed by 15 minutes of heavy rain and a MASSIVE rumble of thunder which made me glad I'd been to the toilet beforehand

    Can hear the thunder here in north Greenwich, not hit yet and still hot a fuck but starting to get a bit of a breeze which is nice.
