Shallow fog formed on the fields east of Romsey
around 2020Z, following the clearance of showers
and a thunderstorm of slight to moderate intensity
from 1620Z to 1700Z, the core of which passed
just to the north. A strong and complete double
rainbow graced the sky 1745-1800Z as the sun
was about to dip below the horizon.

Isolated flashes of lightning are currently visible away
to the south, presumably over the English Channel.
