Beautiful morning here, and since dawn I've taken the opportunity to
work in the garden - mainly hacking back rampant shrubs and climbers
and catching-up on the watering. Noticed that a shield of high cloud
has been moving in from the south-south-east and is beginning to
obsure the sun. Presumably an outlier of the storm over northern
France which (I assume and regrettably) will get nowehere near us here
in SW Essex.


Go one, someone tell me it's got our name on it ........ I wouldn't
be at all surprised, it's the neighbouring village's fete
today .......

Blackmore, SW Essex.


Satellite image shows the storms clearly and shows the cloud sneaking
into the very far SE. I doubt whether you'll see any rain in Essex.

It had OUR name on it last night with knobs on...
Four hour lightning show all around, gusty wind, but oddly, not a drop
of rain. Good fun though.
We seem to get these long overnighters quite frequently over here -
always spectacular.
