Will the uk have a storm tonight after the hot weather?

I remember a couple of years back we had a huge storm in the night following the heatwave.

Just wondering if to prepare as I have cats!!

I’m expecting thunder tonight, my dog will be a nervous wreck !

@KangarooKenny

I can't see how we won't have thunder or lightening!

It's forecast for tomorrow afternoon where I am

NightmareSlashDelightful · 19/07/2022 17:36

We were forecast a storm for tomorrow (Edinburgh) but they seem to have changed their minds now. It’ll be cooler than today but still dry and sunny.

Rain on Friday, potentially.

Chocoqueen · 19/07/2022 17:36

We're not due one until tomorrow afternoon, but I'd love one this tonight... unless it wakes the baby 😆

sanityisamyth · 19/07/2022 17:36

I hope so! This needs to break.

whattheactualfck · 19/07/2022 17:37

I don't have one forecast at all, in the West Midlands!

Same here, from lunchtime

Ontomatopea · 19/07/2022 17:40

We really need one. We've had a spot of rain but not enough.

Fizbosshoes · 19/07/2022 17:40

We had a really heavy downpour ...for about 2 minutes at midnight on Sunday night! (East of England)

So are we and we have, on the BBC site under warnings. Yellow warning from 1pm-9pm.

Coastalcreeksider · 19/07/2022 17:40

I hope so, about 4pm we had a small rumble of thunder and about 130 drops of rain and that was it. Wind has got up though and sky cloudy. Still very warm.

Cat went into the kitchen cupboard but has come out now as he's terrified of thunder.

@ohyoubadbadkitten

if kitten can't tell you, no one can 🐱

BlueMumDays · 19/07/2022 17:44

I'm in the south West. We were forecast thunderstorms this afternoon but in the end it was just fairly gentle rain.

Maybe there will be lightning, but I imagine it might be quite localised?

takeitandleaveit · 19/07/2022 17:44

On the whole? No.

The lucky few? Yes.

ClaudineClare · 19/07/2022 17:53

We had some rain earlier and a rumble or two. Temperature dropped for a bit, now it is back to 31...

DogInATent · 19/07/2022 17:57

Forecast for tomorrow.

Large parts of the south and east could really use a deluge to dampen the fields down.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 19/07/2022 17:59

Possibly, but in the south the cold front is largely passing without any impact. Barely even any rain from it. There is a met office weather warning for the NE, but even there, the chance is low.

Ammonites · 19/07/2022 18:00

I really hope so but I’m south east England, forecast for tomorrow pm.

Soubriquet · 19/07/2022 18:02

We are supposed to have rain from around 10
tonight and more rain tomorrow including thunderstorms. I hope so

TimBoothseyes · 19/07/2022 18:04

We're not forecast any rain until Friday where I am. No mention of a storm either.

SirChenjins · 19/07/2022 18:06

Not according to the weather sites. We're in Edinburgh and although one was forecast it seems to have disappeared thankfully, with cooler weather coming in.

Staffy1 · 19/07/2022 18:07

No, not here.

LonelyInAutumn · 19/07/2022 18:07

I'm in the west midlands too. Heavy rain was predicted for 6pm today but nothing 🥲

Gufo · 19/07/2022 18:08

We're forecast some - fingers crossed
