Hi, Nigel,

I was just about to post when I read yours. TS arrived here 1930GMTand
it's still going on (20Z). Totally unexpected as the forecast was for a
dry evening, but a nice surprise nevertheless! It seems to be centred
around Darlington atm.

It has all the characteristics of a front passing through. Squall up to
30mph and wind veering from SE to SW with temp falling a couple of
degrees to 6C. Heavy rain for a short while, about 2mm.

ATB,
