Indeed!

The radar returns are striking, if you excuse the pun, but it's not clear
whether the storm will drift its way over here to Pudsy/Farsley, on the WNW of
the City.

Hi, Brian,

I was down in God's County yesterday visiting my mother in Sherburn near
Scarborough. Some beautiful Cb and Cg clouds building. One short shower
around Catterick, but otherwise dry. Copley and particularly Bishop
Auckland had thunderstorms around 13Z.

I was amazed to see Scarborough topped the rainfall on Teletext p.407
with 13mm. It shows how local these heavy showers are and how difficult
they are to forecast.

ATB,
