Brilliant sunshine, blue skies. A warmish night - no sign of any rain.

Kent coast.

Same as ferry but hopefully not quite so hot today.

I wish!
I don’t think we’ll get rain for another week. Scorchio again today.

We were promised rain here in South Wales yesterday but it veered off in a different direction, so another hot day.

No rain here in South Hampshire, apparently there was an electrical storm overnight, no thunder or rain, 27 due today.

Our thunderstorm was about 2:30 am, very loud, very, very close , in fact overhead but mercifully short.
It is a long time since I have heard lightening actually sizzle and simultaneously the thunder cracking, I thought something must have been struck.
It then rained but I don’t know for how long.
It is fresh this morning but temperature likely to rise again.

Wonderful lightning display in the early hours of this morning but no thunder or rain. Already hot at 23 degrees.
One forecast says rain is due, another says none for us. So we wait and see. Just hope it cools down tonight, the last two nights have been terrible.
Dorset.

Back up to 30 again today and no cooling breeze like we had yesterday. Badly need rain, but no sign at all. London.

we had a massive storm for most the morning yesterday, temperature dropped and then BOOM absolutely boiling again!

Charleygirl5 Thu 28-May-26 09:25:06

No sign of threatened storms and T to rise to early 30's again. London.

Hot, dry and dusty with no sign of rain although for the past few days possible thunder storms have been forecast in the south east!

The much needed rain would certainly freshen the atmosphere up around here.

As I left work about 4 yesterday, the clouds were really thick and dark, and it was still humid. About 10 past midnight, I saw faint lightning from miles away, then it rained during the night.

I left home for work about 7 this morning, and it was pouring down! Still a bit humid, but the rain is gorgeous!
