Very significant storm as I left Southampton on the train this
afternoon. Torrential rain with significant deterioration in visibility
- hard to tell, but probably down to 100m or less. Hail too. Many
lightning strikes, mainly to the southeast over the docks and probably
the west of the Isle of Wight. Covered a large area too - the storm was
moving NE and I was going SW on the train and it was torrential from
Southampton Central to just beyond Ashurst (probably about 10 minutes).
Large areas of standing water in the fields/forest west of Ashurst.

Nice and dry in Bournemouth though - doesn't seem to have been anything
at all here!
