Forcast was for heavy rain in the S.E. today. I'm currently sitting scorching on the patio with coffee and the papers smile

It's just started raining here. Better shut the hens up before the deluge.

It is Gillwell Park (we think)

We have had heavy rain since mid afternoon here in Dorset. It's now easing a bit.

Lots of rain over the Gilwell Park area. At least there won't be any fires in Epping Forest tonight.

A nice light rain started last evening just after I'd watered the garden. All dry again this morning - but windy, very windy. There'll be plenty of fallen sticks at Gilwell to start their campfires.

Heavy rain overnight. Street full of fallen leaves from the lime trees.

Bucketing down here in Durham. DH off on the Settle Carlisle railway. Hope they will be able to see something through the rain.

It bucketed it down with heavy thunder most of yesterday evening from 7
pm to 11ish where I am staying near Ashbourne here in Derbyshire.
Clouds seem to be clearing right now.
