I am about 30 kms north of you. I just had to go out in the rain to
empty the rain guage before it overflowed!. Got soaked.

45 mms rain in 1 hr 15 mins and it's still tipping down.

Passed slightly west of here, some rumbles of thunder and 1mm rain. Another
pulse coming up slowly from the south which I hope doesn't miss here.

It probably wont miss YOU in Essex but here in west London there is nothing
and unlikely to be any either, in fact by 10pm theres even "clear" shown on
the forecast radar for the west - Heathrow included. This is all so usual
its like it just seems to fragment into nothing.

I wouldn't bet on it! Already appears to breaking up and going passed to the
East before moving back inland despite being in the middle of the severe
weather warning area for the second time this week. Still, that's life when
you live in a desert ;-)

I know, its a ****in' joke isnt it Dave, all this severe torrentialness and
nonesense about heavy rain and thunder
as the next few days progress its goin to get even drier so thats definitely
it for any hope of any decent rain in the
home counties once again. The radar is full of crap they keep changing it
every hour. As for the BBC dont ya just
love their graphics and that big rainly world they use on the introduction.
As if it convinces anyone.

I don't want to be berated for criticising forecasts because I know some
parts of Essex did have heavier rain e.g, Harlow, Chelmsford, where I was
this evening. However, it looks like the region to have heaviest rain has
been the Midlands and around Cambridge, as was also forecast. My total was a
paltry 2mm. I am definitely going to get caught out when a severe weather
warning is accurate for my precise locality!

Dave
