We were forecast thunderstorms and heavy rain today where I am. So far it's cloudy, boiling hot and not a drop of rain to be seen.
Has anyone had any of the storms predicted?

We have, the thunder was rumbling from 7pm last night and by 2am it was horrendous. It’s still rumbling around in the distance and we’ve had torrential rain.

Central Scotland has had them on and off since teatime last night, intermittent flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder all through the night, nothing but rain since this morning though.

Some rain but no storms and the temp is still high 20s. Bristol

Dumbojumbo · 15/08/2022 17:27

We are currently under a large thunderstorm in Somerset. Flash flooding, continuous thunder, hail and torrential rain. The air is definitely feeling fresher now

mmmmmchocolate · 15/08/2022 17:27

The BBC weather app says thunder and heavy rain right now. Suns out and it’s probably mid 20’s 😂😂 the 10 degree drop is very nice though!

SilverGlassHare · 15/08/2022 17:27

South central England - just a bit cloudy here. No rain, no thunder, still quite hot (though not as sunny so not as hideous as the last four days).

I'm jealous of everyone who's had or got a storm, I'm desperate for it to cool down slightly.
I'm in West Yorkshire

Yes we've had a big impressive storm with thunder and torrential rain.

weebarra · 15/08/2022 17:28

Yes, lots of thunder and lightning in east central Scotland last night. Now it's just very wet!

Spudlet · 15/08/2022 17:28

Nothing in Norfolk and nothing forecast. It feels like it’s never going to rain again 😕

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 15/08/2022 17:29

We had thunder and lightening a lot of last night, loud enough to startle us awake over the noise of the baby monitor with white noise, Angus in Scotland

MajorCarolDanvers · 15/08/2022 17:29

Truly spectacular thunder and lightening all through the night last night and non stop rain since about 6pm yesterday. Fife, Scotland

Same here, on my weather all the rain is moving later and later. Feels like ages ago it last rained

I have watched the rain on my weather app get pushed further and further back and it’s not disappeared.

The chance of rain the rest of the week has also reduced.

This is exactly what happened in July as well.

SweatyChamoisPad · 15/08/2022 17:33

Nothing in North Mcr - my garden is dying!!!

LooksLikeImStuckHere · 15/08/2022 17:34

Absolutely nothing. SE, still hot and humid.

MrsMoastyToasty · 15/08/2022 17:34

Between Bristol and Bath. Just a bit of drizzle this morning, still humid though. I've just checked on a storm tracking site and there's been lightning a few miles away near Glastonbury.

UncomfortableSilence · 15/08/2022 17:35

London/Essex border, not a thing. It's 31 degrees and so oppressive.

MrsMitford3 · 15/08/2022 17:35

No and I have even just hung some washing out to lure it...

Am in Berkshire

poppym12 · 15/08/2022 17:35

I thought we were going to get one but it seems to have veered a bit more inland now (Somerset).

YessicaHaircut · 15/08/2022 17:35

Yep - big old thunderstorm with plenty of heavy rain here in Devon. Started here around 3.30pm and still getting the odd rumble now though feels like it’s moving on.

100Elizabeth · 15/08/2022 17:37

Me!!!!!! It was raining so bad, thunder, hail and even lighting. Very strong winds

TeenDivided · 15/08/2022 17:38

South Hants - just had 2 loud rumbles of thunder, but no rain yet.

OnTheRunWithMannyMontana · 15/08/2022 17:38

No 🥵🥵🥵

Pleeeeeease send me something to break this sodding heat!

100Elizabeth · 15/08/2022 17:40

Started 3:15, rain poured. Then hail. Quickly thunder and lightning. Just cleared up. At one point I couldn't see the end of the garden.

  • Just north of Exeter, Devon
