Overnight thunderstorms, thunder rumbling most of the time from 02:00
to 08:30, but just 3.8mm of rain. This makes 1st July the 1st 'rain
day' since 17th June. Soil still dry under some trees, and water butts
only 25% full. All seems to be clearing eastward now, I was hoping for
at least double figure rainfall, just to give the garden a decent
water. June was the driest month here since March 2000.


Minimum temperature last night was 17.3C.

It's all happening just to the east of you, Graham.
Persisting down up here in Stithians.

That must be the thunder I heard around 08:30.

What was your maximum temperature yesterday?
