I spoke too soon about not having any rain. There was a second wave of storms about 10 minutes ago. It was chucking it down, with hail-stones. I managed to take this video from my living room window...
I crossed the Tees into much better weather apart from the humidity hitting you like a wall. Did shopping in S&M well that is what I really think of having to shop, came out and it was even hotter just got the boot lid lifted and down it came. All you could hear was the screams of women in summer clothes belting across the car park, too late of course. Took the trolley back well I was wet and drove home along small rivers. Our country lanes rely on ditches which could not take the amount of water falling. It is now fair once more, glad the lawns got finished in time. yours was worse though Gary.

Did the weather man get it right. . . "A few light showers"
This is what the Met Office said, and are still saying...
We had just over 2cm of rain, within about 10 minutes. It has now passed, and is getting brighter.... for the moment.
Sunny intervals and showers here, too.

Wow! Remarkable video....that's pretty much how it was here at about 10.30am. Power cuts, flash floods, no buses or taxis.
And I was grumbling about the April shower type senario up here!
Friend in NWorcs has had an overflowing pond this morning- luckily they do live on a hill, so all the excess draining away from the house.
Muggy, breezy, some sun trying & about 24C in my bit Manchester at the mo. J.
It is too hot for me today - phew !!!

Torrential rain, thunder and lighting - for about an hour now.
