The Met Office have issued a very widespread thunderstorm warning for Sunday. The coverage of the warning reflects uncertainty as to where storms will crop up. Not everywhere will see storms of course.

Main risk: torrential rain.

This weekend marks a transition to unsettled, but generally very warm period, with muggy nights, but temperatures lower than they have been. Further rainy periods and perhaps storms are expected.

Damn it, I swear the weather knows when I have long drives to do.

Thank you OYBBK.

I am visiting Bodmin this weekend, for my sins.

Fortunately, we always bypass it.

Typical, just filling our pool as not had the chance in the last couple of weeks, getting in before our hose pipe ban (our usage is well below average as a rule)

Thank you OYBBK.

ListenLinda · 16/06/2023 17:18

Checking in, we are under the weather warning this time.

justasking111 · 16/06/2023 17:58

Not sure if we are yet too far North again

BestIsWest · 16/06/2023 18:17

Please rain! We were promised rain at 5pm but nothing. We haven’t had anything really since May 9th.

juggleit · 16/06/2023 18:22

Am camping this weekend with the kids! Fingers crossed its not too bad for all those driving and entertaining 🤞

justasking111 · 16/06/2023 18:24

Fathers day BBQ here three families 🙈

OhYouBadBadKitten · 16/06/2023 19:54

No real update yet I'm afraid.

I see some sneaky thunderstorms popped up in western Scotland while I wasnt looking this evening.

My garden (and poor birds) are looking forward to some skywater and cooler weather. Not sure muggy nights is a selling point though.

bookworm14 · 17/06/2023 07:50

Checking in. Desperate for rain in NW London.

GloriaSmud · 17/06/2023 07:52

Hoping for some rain here (Leicester) as well.
(And good idea for a new thread, OYBBK)

OhYouBadBadKitten · 17/06/2023 07:57

I think that theres a good chance for rain for many who didnt see any last weekend.
Im hoping so, anyway!

Checking in again due to storm phobia. I swear to god, I look at the Met Office weather map upwards of 100 times a day on days like these...

HelpMeGetThrough · 17/06/2023 09:44

Down here in Cornwall, it's very overcast and very humid. Rained yesterday evening and the sky has been looking angry all morning.

Wildlynx · 17/06/2023 10:11

Am running my local trail marathon tomorrow so watching the weather with interest. Happy for it being cooler but not so keen on the lightening potential up on the hills!

beenrumbled · 17/06/2023 11:22

Grey and overcast in Manchester.

Just had a few drops of rain.

mirages08 · 17/06/2023 14:18
