Oh it has got much darker, sky is looking angry . It's on its way. Just please go back to being hot after.

@Cheesymonster - good enough for you now? Grin

It's just started absolutely hammering it down. Halle-bloody-luja!

To whoever put their washing out/washed their car - thank you, thank you, thank you.

This one means business. Saw it bubbling up on the radar so popped to the coop for emergency wine. Red in case the power wentvout., Of course.

Were only on the edge of the rain but it's a bloody noisy one.

We have rain!! Its a lot cooler now too.

Blushah · 27/07/2018 20:46

Well, I guess I'll have to make do with the 75 drops, and 3 claps of thunder we got near Southampton.

It was looking so promising. Sad

Another evening of watering ahead!

Sallystyle · 27/07/2018 20:47

We had rain for 1 minute. WTH?

Stinkyswan · 27/07/2018 20:48

Yay 😀 rain ☔️ and thunder 🌩 here in Essex for the first time in 52 days! Dancing naked in garden waiting for blood red moon 🌒. Quite happy

Blushah · 27/07/2018 20:50

My garden is actually going to die isn't it? Sad.

throwawayagain · 27/07/2018 20:52

Please send rain.
Thanks.

SneakyGremlins · 27/07/2018 20:54

Near Stockport! Only a couple drops. But the sky looks like this..

We had thunder and rain here yesterday evening and this morning, but only for about half an hour each and then it was back to hot, muggy and humid. We had more about an hour ago but again, it fucked off within ten minutes. I'm boiling again Sad

Sallystyle · 27/07/2018 21:02

Why would it rain for less than a minute? It's like a sick joke.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 27/07/2018 21:04

North Essex and it's still raining. What bliss.

Soubriquet · 27/07/2018 21:11

For the first time in weeks, it's lovely and cool this evening. The Lightning is bright though

jainaproudm · 27/07/2018 21:15

Absolutely hammered it down in West Yorkshire this morning, it was great. Felt like the temp dropped about 10 degrees in 10 minutes, I sat with the window open just watching it thunder and feeling all relieved, then half an hour later it went back to being baking :(

IJustHadToNameChange · 27/07/2018 21:22

Still nothing.

There's cloud, enough to obscure the blood moon, but not enough to rain.

Fuck me, it's sweltering.

Cheesymonster · 27/07/2018 21:23

I love the smell of rain

Hmmalittlefishy · 27/07/2018 21:27

We've had literally 30seconds of rain yesterday and this evening.
So cloudy that we can't see the moon eclipse.
Who knows when it will actually rain.
Jackreacheswife you're post on t he first page made me laugh - I lived in Preston for 10years and never thought I'd hear someone living there begging for rain!! Grin

MorrisZapp · 27/07/2018 21:27

BBC says absolutely definitely going to piss down biblically and thunder etc in Edinburgh overnight. Christ we need it. Currently sweltering and threatening.

NoLightInTheTunnel · 27/07/2018 21:31

It's been raining her for a couple of hours now. Blessed relief. Went from sunshine to gale force winds in the space of about a minute, and then the glorious rain.

NoLightInTheTunnel · 27/07/2018 21:31

Smurfybubbles · 27/07/2018 21:35

We had a 10 degree drop in temp in less than an hour here in Cambridge earlier. Me and DH actually danced around the garden in the rain it was bliss. Much cooler now, looking forward to a decent nights sleep, even the baby is back to his usual bedtime and fell asleep straight away Grin

MoonsAndJunes · 27/07/2018 21:41

Woahhh steady with all the wishes for rain... we had rain last night and the heat & humidity was off the scale. I was sweating buckets - it was horrible.

TerfsUp · 27/07/2018 21:46

Cloudy where I am so no moon eclipse. Nor rain.

I normally love warm, sunny weather but I need a break from the heat.
