ITS FRIGGING RAINING

[McPeppaMcYumPig]

I'm not religious but currently thanking god .... in Hampshire here...been 30 degrees plus I could actually cry

Exciting times here in Berkshire, I’m happy & relaxed for the first time in weeks! ⛈

10 minutes downpour with thunder/lightening followed by light rain for the last half hour wooooohoooooo!!

Not in Chester. I'm begging for rain and cold!

Just started in North East London, long may it last!

Thunder and a brief downpour half an hour ago here in Milton Keynes, now steady rain. I'm so happy!

Any chance of sending the rain to Lancashire? I'm melting

Our rain lasted less than 10 minutes and the decking is dry already.

Can't be too greedy, though. We had a cracking storm last Monday and rain last Friday.

I've just brought my Guinea pigs and washing in as I had a weather warning and the sky over ^ was looking ominous. No wet stuff yet…

East Sussex: heavy rain for 10 minutes, then it stopped for 20 minutes, then it rained hard again for about 5 minutes.

I can still hear thunder though, and not very far away imo. The air is so much fresher, it's heavenly.

We had 5 min rain last night that's just served to make everything far more humid today. Were supposed to have thundery showers on and off all day. Nothing, nada, zip. Blue skies and yet more sunshine.

Supposed to rain next few days in Lancashire

I'm in Suffolk which has been one of the areas hardest hit by the heatwave. It's sweltering and wall to wall sunshine.

We're on yellow alert for thunderstorms between 14:00 and 02:00 - don't know why they're warning us, as everyone will be dancing in the streets! Don't know how thunderstorms are supposed to happen without a cloud in the sky though . The only thing green in my garden are the weeds, and even they're succumbing.

Dry as a bone in the Midlands. I've just brought my 3rd load of washing in. Am jealous of you all with rain.

According to my weather it SHOULD be raining an hour ago

YY Midlands here too. The sun has gone in but nothing happening yet...

Bloody hell, a few flashes of thunder and my internet connection keeps dropping out. Bloody useless BT.

Stopped in Beds. Of course.

Absolutely pelting it down here. Thunder, lightning, the works. We may be in the eye of the storm

mura where are you??

Send it here!!

We had some showers yesterday but they lasted 5 mins and then it got even hotter and muggier.

Supposed to have had thunderstorms today...yet they haven't turned up and it's so hot and sticky.

Everything is sticking to me without me even moving.

Waft it in the direction of Kent please, we're DESPERATE.

Blushah - Croydon. It has been going crazy. The cat is sat by the open back door looking most unimpressed.

The rain has made the dog go mad!

She keeps running out into the garden, and running round and round in circles, so fast that she's actually leaning over.

She's 13, I had no idea that she could still run that fast.

There's nearly a centimetre of water in the ash tray I left on the table outside.

It's moving from west to east, Brett, and has just stopped in East Sussex, so should be with you soon.

Had a few lightning strikes, some thunder and some more rain here in North London. Its dark and oppressive and still very humid.

Weve finally got the rain in Herts
