It's absolutely pouring here.
It's the stormiest rain storms we've had for a long time.
I'm sitting in the car waiting for child to have music lesson.
South east home counties.

Not much tbh, in london

Not really cold enough for me either

Newpudding · 10/11/2025 16:38

It's been showery all day but off just now. West London.

TheNightingalesStarling · 10/11/2025 16:39

Pouring. Yorkshire. And I need to pop to the corner shop.

DarkEyedSailor · 10/11/2025 16:40

Siling it down. And it's been mostly dark since half two ish.

PInkyStarfish · 10/11/2025 16:40

On and off showers. Gower, Wales.

StuntAcorn · 10/11/2025 16:41

It's one of those where it eases for 5 minutes but then goes pitch black and then it's torrential again.
Very atmospheric.

@mumofoneAloneandwell You're a fan of autumn/winter then? 🙂
I have actually got my boots on, purely because it's too wet for my usual trainers.

I do! 🥰🎄❄️ I am at my happiest between now and christmas, with cold weather, soup and the electric blanket 😄

Good thinking with the boots, I wore crocs and got wet feet as I got out of the car - worth it though!

Ticklyoctopus · 10/11/2025 16:49

Yes. Thick dark grey cloud and endless rain for days/weeks now. South coast

Sparkletastic · 10/11/2025 16:49

Pissing down in Sussex

It’s not cold here at all, just miserable. I’m in a long sleeved top and absolutely fine with just a raincoat over the top

TheChosenTwo · 10/11/2025 16:50

It has been on and off all day here. Very grey and moody.
I don’t mind it when I’m working at home and have my electric blanket on and the heating going! I’ll like it less when I have to drive to the office in it 😂

Iwontlethtesungodownonme · 10/11/2025 16:52

Pissing it down in the NW.
Was a beautiful morning though and I managed to get out for a run in the sunshine.

DappledThings · 10/11/2025 16:53

Ticklyoctopus · 10/11/2025 16:49

Yes. Thick dark grey cloud and endless rain for days/weeks now. South coast

Where on the South coast? I'm SE coast and we've hardly had any rain over the last fortnight. I was still in a tshirt 2 days ago drinking a coffee in the sun.

Plump82 · 10/11/2025 16:54

Not here (West of Scotland), it's actually been a lovely autumnal day but I got a wear warning for a flood alert starting tomorrow so it must be making it's way up to us!

RightOnTheEdge · 10/11/2025 16:57

It's been dark and rainy all day here in North Yorkshire.
Not pouring it down, that fine rain that gets you wet, as Peter Kay would say.

RuncibleSpoons · 10/11/2025 16:57

Home Counties here. Was raining a bit but not now. So mild! We’ve had our heating on once for about 2 hours so far this winter.

Poonu · 10/11/2025 16:57

Yes drizzling

StuntAcorn · 10/11/2025 16:58

Yes I can't believe just how dark it is.
But not cold at all.

@Plump82 hopefully it won't be as bad for you.

It's been spitty here all day but just bang on school run, it started pouring!

South west

Chucking it down here in south east London all afternoon heavens opened at school pickup time, also very grey & dark from early afternoon not cold though.

It's not cold for me either, winter needs to hurry up!

Brightbluesomething · 10/11/2025 17:17

Also chucking it down in Yorkshire. DD got soaked walking home from school and proudly said it’s ok mum, I didn’t get my hair wet as I had my hood up. There’s a first time for everything!
Currently sat under a blanket freezing. Thermostat says 24. It’s been broken for a couple of weeks but now I’m regretting not getting it fixed sooner.

Augustus40 · 10/11/2025 17:28

It was really chucking it down 10 to 3 this afternoon. Ds had just got back from his early shift job and he said he was pleased to be back home in the dry. East Mids.

chilliheeler123 · 10/11/2025 17:39

Pissing down in Kent. Three cats shouting because they decided they didn’t want to go out in the rain, and it’s all my fault. Dog also didn’t want to go for a walk as how could he possibly be expected to get wet? The horror!

Also I forgot about my washing on the line and it’s going to probably need to be rewashed if it doesn’t dry nicely 😫
