Some magnificent arcs across the top of the cloud bank approaching from the
north-west. Quick scurry back home since herself was none too happy about
it. All quietened down for now.

The Mrs phoned from Bedford and said there was thunder around so when
I checked the radar I was suprised to see the stuff that developed,
over a short period, Rugby area and running north east.

A rather refreshing 14C outside

It's been ****** unpleasant here in Stoke since the spell started. I
hate this about British summers.

Thunder and heavy rain woke me up last night at about 1:30am. A total
of 9.0mm of rain. (Shoeburyness 6.0mm)
