Is everyone having these dreadful storms?

South Bucks constant rain. Water slowly dripping through our shower room window, that’s the one DH made watertight 😏

Here in Norfolk we have had virtually no rain for well over a month! All our water butts are dry as a bone! Not had a day for ages when I could not dry washing outside. Very short shower yesterday afternoon but 2 miles away it was torrential! Wet this morning, very small puddles! but will it last! Garden shouting out for rain!
I’m not complaining, but would be nice to see garden a little bit greener!
Ps….not raining now!

Like Bluebelle, I’ve been enjoying the sunshine on the east coast, and have had to use the hose in the garden. Hydrangeas were drooping. The promised rain wasn’t at all useful, all of five minutes. Expect the heavy rain will come when I take the dog out 🤣

I considered hanging out washing yesterday as it was dry in my part of outer London. Late evening it was torrential rain but no thunder or lightning although neither would wake me once I was asleep.

I have cancelled a coffee with a friend today at Oxford Street because many tubes were suspended.

North Lancashire here, nothing much than a bit of rain.

Torrential rain last night South of London, like thunder rain but no thunder and it didn’t ease off for ages. Glad in a way because we haven’t had substantial rain for ages and the ground is cracking is so dry.

Two nights of heavy rain, thunder and lightening in SE London/Kent, but it was dry and warm yesterday and the washing dried! No rain here at the moment.

One thunderstorm on Friday here in Berkshire. It must have been raining overnight and there could have been another storm but I don't sleep with my hearing aids in and I'd miss the crack of doom!

Oh, and a huge tree came down at the end of our road, opposite the village primary school! Fortunately it was very early and no people or cars were about. It could have been disastrous.

Heavy rain here, today and yesterday. I'm in Cambridgeshire.

The forecast says rain all week here.

North Suffolk we had a very warm weekend, waiting for a thunderstorm that never came. Started raining last night but stopped again now. Weather always seems to go around us!

Our BBC forecast suggests 90% chance of heavy rain all day so definitely no gardener and the lights on constantly. Very dismal, but so far not life threatening.

I absolutely love storms, all the thunder, lightening etc. !

Steadily raining from the early hours in S Hants and 15 outside, gloomy.

Flooded roads in west of outer London last night and I got soaked on the school run this morning, but brighter now and dry. I've had a thick bathmat outside drying since Friday!

many storms here in Bedfordshire (3 overnight Sat/Sun), and roads flooded. Lots of traffic warnings today with roads/schools closed.
What a night to choose to plug in my ev!!

Not much in East Anglia as usual! Some at night but lovely sunshine now!

Cumbria here, Monday, after a glorious 5 days sunshine we had light rain overnight. Today its overcast with light showers.
Its a change for us to have the best weather in the country, and we do sympathise with all you people with floods (but we've had our fair share) lets hope it soon clears up

Non stop rain in north east 🫤

Me too!
But no such thing here in North Devon 🤷‍♀️

We had a lot of rain in Hastings but today is sunny. Some occasional lightning but nothing unseasonal, trees are loving the rain though

I could have written RosiesMaw2 post. I think we must live near each other. I live near all the villages she mentioned. The thunder and lightning was terrible and so much has been affected by the floods.

Havnt had any rain for a while, despite it being forecast yesterday. South edge of London.
