Sudden rise in wind and pressure at 1940Z
just ahead of an approaching CB (embedded
within thick AC/AS layers). Rain commenced
at 1945Z, quickly intensifying to heavy at 1955Z.

1mm in the gauge already (15mins ending 2000Z).

.... further west of you, we've only had a light 'sprinkling' of rain
~1930-1945Z ; just enough to show on the flags, but evaporating
quickly. Sky has some 'lumpy' elements, mainly floccus, underneath
thinning (at present) Cs deck. No doubt some more action later, though
we may be away from the focus of the heaviest & potentially persistent
rain event.

Two CB cells are in evidence, one to the west and
another to the northeast, the latter now producing
thunder at 2010Z. A break in the clouds in the
fading light of day has appeared to the southeast.

Hello Martin,

Caught your 2011Z post after I sent in my second at 2014Z.
Typical! Given the current set-up and the fact I have a day
off tomorrow, there's a fair chance I'll churn out some more
info from time to time during the next 24 hours.

At the moment (2035Z) the cloud break is overhead but
there are more menacing looking clouds to the southeast.
Still raining slightly despite the overhead hole.

Nigel.

Nothing at all in Bournemouth (I was in the Charminster/Lansdowne area
tonight). The sky did go very dark to the SW when I was waiting for a
bus at 2000Z - enough so to make me concerned about my lack of a raincoat!

That was part of a lump of rain that passed to the east of us judging from
the NW radar. Never rained in Springbourne (just by Kings Park) either.

I was in Colehill (about 4 miles from Martin) at my parents today and I was
surprised we got no rain despite some showing up on radar - presumeably it
was evaporarating before reaching ground.

Some pretty heavy showers appearing over central/north Hampshire, and a
bigger lump of rain about 1-2 hours travelling time from the Dorset coast
(including Bournemouth).
Looks very nasty in Worcestershire right now - is New Road set to be flooded
again?
