Several claps of Thunder just now, a couple of heavy downpours to
bring me in from gardening... apart from that such a nice day

Hi, Nick,
I can confirm as I was at Northallerton Town's ground watching them
lose 5 - 1 to my team - Bishop Auckland (:0))
It was warm and sunny soon afterwards. Overheard some Northallerton
folk complaining that thunder had not been forecast and the weather
forecasters were no good etc. etc. They did say that RAF Leeming was
supposed to be good for forecasts but they could not find the 'phone
number etc etc.
I didn't join in.

Five nil !!!!!!!!!!!!

Phone number for Leeming, bet they wouldn't talk to a MOP about that
sort of thing ?! I just look at Meto on my mobile, am on O2

No it wasn't forecast at all, not even the rain that preceded it...
well they had done on Thursday, by Friday they said it wouldn't and
continued to do so from then on... got it wrong again... SOOOO glad
we're not down in the SW with that torrential rain, think the whole
country's gonna get it Tue/Wed, at least I hope so as am just off to
Sam Turner for some Lawn Sand...
