Has anyone actually had a storm?

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?

About 20 spots in North Yorkshire, it feels like we need a huge storm and for it to pour down.

I'm still so blinking hot!

@UncomfortableSilence i was coming on to say the same for London/Essex boarder. Desperate for a good dose of rain.

I'm sitting outside now, there's a few dark clouds and it's very still. Fingers crossed for a bit of rain.

It's just started raining here, praying for a storm and good downpour

In SWest we had about 10 raindrops this morning. Put my arm out of the door (I did promise to do a rain dance if there was enough rain) and about 6 raindrops landed and that warm like a puny shower.

Where in London are you?!?!?!

I'm in south east London and I'm so excited if you tell me it's heading here !

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

North/west Norfolk forecast rain for the next 5 days, though suspect some will hit off the coast

Yarnasaurus · 15/08/2022 18:56

East Devon/Somerset border and just had distant thunder and drizzle/heavy shower, was ridiculously disappointed. My neighbours are probably thrilled as they're at high flood risk so steady rain is definitely better for them.

DiaryofWimpyMumm · 15/08/2022 18:57

Yes in Scotland last night thunder, lightning and heavy rain then just on/off rain

AgnestaVipers · 15/08/2022 18:57

Just gentle rain here. Just what was needed - it's going to perk the garden up nicely.

BiddyPop · 15/08/2022 18:58

Yes to rain but no storms in Dublin.

Favouritefruits · 15/08/2022 19:02

Last night we had rain, thunder, lightning and winds it was awful but only seemed to last an hour and hasn’t made the air much fresher which is disappointing.

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 15/08/2022 19:03

South coast, it’s gone grey and even muggier, please let it rain soon 🤞

vodkaredbullgirl · 15/08/2022 19:04

Had some thunder and lightening, did rain a bit but nothing to shout about (Somerset)

DiddlyDoris · 15/08/2022 19:04

Nope.

I've had a headache today and yesterday so could do with a good storm, find it helps sometimes.

MrsMontyD · 15/08/2022 19:06

I'm in the midlands we had a few drops of rain in the air for a few minutes at lunchtime. It's supposed to start raining in the early hours of tomorrow and continue all day, which is typical because I'm going into the office tomorrow.

Onthegrid · 15/08/2022 19:07

North of London on Herts/Essex border dark clouds to the south. Not a drop of rain yet and still around 30c

isittheholidaysyet · 15/08/2022 19:09

Absolute belter of a storm here in northern Lincolnshire.

I don't remember seeing it on the forecast, when I checked last night whether to do more clothes washing.

UncomfortableSilence · 15/08/2022 19:09

Absolutely pelting down here now!

paulhollywoodshairgel · 15/08/2022 19:09

North Yorkshire here. There's a storm a brewing as we speak. Rumbling thunder.. black skies. Bring it on ⛈🌧🌨

APurpleSquirrel · 15/08/2022 19:10

We caught the side of a storm - got some good rain & could hear/see the thunder & lightning but not torrential & no hail. Hoping it's given the garden a good drink.

RewildingAmbridge · 15/08/2022 19:11

We had loud thunder and some lightening and a brief shower. It feels more humid now than it did before!

AclowncalledAlice · 15/08/2022 19:13

About 2 minutes of light rain and a bit of rumbling in the distance and that's it. Blue sky and sunshine again now here in my part of Somerset.
