Default [WR] -TSRA Bracknell (Tawfield) Thursday PM

distant thunder heard ~1425Z
rain (with distant thunder) ~1440Z

Now (1445Z) ... thunder getting louder (closer): no lightning seen yet.
AirTemp: 26.8degC, DewPoint: 17.9degC (Max: 28.2degC)
5 oktas TCU, 2 oktas Cb cal .... Cb activity (TS) appears to be
concentrated in the NE quadrant: I say 'appears', because the sky is
(has been) so hazy that cloud development has been difficult to observe.

Wind getting gusty (Bft 5 at the moment), and sky greyer.
