It’s bloody boiling again round me. No rain during the night.

Im in Sheffield, which is bang in the middle of the country. Where is the rain?

Arthursmom · 16/08/2022 10:47

MegaClutterSlut · 16/08/2022 10:50

ArseInTheCoOpWindow · 16/08/2022 10:52

None here in the NW either. Bit of rain yesterday afternoon, but back to heat 😡

SunnyKlara · 16/08/2022 10:52

Cool and showery in my part of West mids

CaptainCallisto · 16/08/2022 10:53

We got about fifteen minutes of rain yesterday evening here in North Yorkshire, but that was it. Back to boiling sunshine today 😭

Eon · 16/08/2022 10:54

Its chucking it down over in tyne and wear since yesterday.

Numbat2022 · 16/08/2022 10:54

I really hope you get it soon OP! We had rain yesterday in Essex for the first time since June. It was amazing! Lovely and cool here today (at least comparatively) and more rain on the way by the feel of it.

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 16/08/2022 10:54

Here. It's been lashing it down since Sunday evening and I can't get my sheets off the line without getting drenched by a massive sodden sheet. It hasn't stopped raining for long enough for them to dry even a little bit so that I could bring them in and rewash them. Neighbours must think I'm mad. (Also near Edinburgh.)

MrsMop1964 · 16/08/2022 10:58

Poured in Brighton a few minutes ago

CathyorClaire · 16/08/2022 11:18

Nice soft sink into the ground type rain here in S. London. Been going on for a couple of hours or so now and it's the first time for weeks.

Sitting here with the back door open listening to pitter patter and it's lovely

botbump · 16/08/2022 11:24

Central S Coast and just absolutely chucked it down here!

Beachsidesunset · 16/08/2022 11:26

I just lit the fire, bit chilly in Cornwall ...

Arthursmom · 16/08/2022 10:47

Plenty rain in Edinburgh 😂

The novelty is somewhat wearing off now isn't it!! We've had to put the heating on in the office it's so cold.

Cornettoninja · 16/08/2022 11:29

I think the rains moved down south - raining at the moment in Essex and feeling pretty cool (in comparison).

I really feel for you OP, hope you get some soon

liveforsummer · 16/08/2022 11:30

A good friend is currently on holiday in Dorset and it's been tipping down this morning so not just confined to the north

CoffeeBeansGalore · 16/08/2022 11:31

Scotland. Been raining here since yesterday. Temp has really dropped, I'm wearing woolly socks 🤣

RebeccaCloud9 · 16/08/2022 11:31

Devon. It's glorious, and far far more enjoyable than the hideous high 30s it was at the start of our hols! (I'm very Pg and hating the heat!)

EmmaH2022 · 16/08/2022 11:34

It's a LIE.

Must be a different bit of the NW to me (Preston area). We've had a bit of rain yesterday and overnight/this morning - not a great quantity but it's dropped thr temperature nicely, about 21°C here now, cloudy so not heating up much, feels quite fresh.

It's not that often we have enviable weather!

RobertsRadio · 16/08/2022 11:35

Lashing it down here in Kent on an off for a couple of hours now. First rain we've had in several weeks. It's definitely cooler, but it's wonderful, I've finally stopped sweating. 😊

2under2howscary · 16/08/2022 11:36

Plenty rain north east! Xx

FourTeaFallOut · 16/08/2022 11:40

I've just looked on the met office rainfall radar and apparently I'm under a pink bit which seems to roughly translate as biblical rain...and not a solitary drop.
