After a spell of warm sunshine and 19C, vigourous Cbs going up to the
east and looking very dark now to the west over the high moor. Clear
convergence line developing over Devon into Cornwall. Colourful radar
already. Some big storms on the way.

Rain just started. Big drops. Here we go ... :-)

Or not ... rain just keeping to west and has now stopped.

Dark in Dawlish and getting darker! I decided that the better part of
gardening valour was a discretionary retreat into the house. Wielding
a metal hoe may not be the greatest of ideas - lightning as I type!! -
in what may come during the next hour.

This has not drifted from anywhere, the Dartmoor cell is still in
place from the weather radar, this is home grown over S. Devon, the
Exe valley and the Haldon Hills. The way this is developing, however,
we could end up with a Devon supercell. Now there could be something!
Rumblings of thunder and rain has started (yet again, when will we get
a day without rain!). Now watch it stop developing and decide to die
as quickly as it has grown! I'm looking forward to this, so that
should guarantee a non-event!
