Are that would be the thunderstorms arcoss Northamptoshire I mentioned earlier on.

Plenty of bright colors to the south across Leicestershire.

No sign or sound of anything except moderate rainfall here for the past 15mins. Very much a non-event.

Heavy rain here now.

Hi all,

Here's the Saturday Evening Thunderstrom And Rainfall Update;

http://www.gavsweathervids.com/stormwatch.html

Big storms and torrential rain spreading north.

Here in Dover the storm deposited an impressive 13mm with a rain rate of 120mm/hour at one point.  Accompanied by thunder and lightning fairly impresssive in this back yard

Hi Ed, you certainly didn't miss anything here!

Total of 8.0mm. Odd flash of lightning and rumble.

Torrential rain here.

Just one very distant roll of thunder heard. The rain has, at last, wet the ground, though it did struggle. This much anticipated event is so far a non-event here.

Heavy rain and occasional thunder here in south Derby

Pouring here now but no thunder  radar looking good though. A big chunk seems to be intensifying and heading our way.

Mediocre as Summer storms go. One roll of thunder and about an hour and a half of seady moderate rain,
Next.

Thunderstorm here now

One roll of thunder here but we did also have the one flash of lightning too. Rain not overly heavy either and by the radar not much more to come. Very underwhelming.

I think for many in the SE they may feel let down from this event as the most exciting sferics remained the other side of the channel. It certainly motored on through very quickly too having already cleared much of the SE. The rain has eased here too now with a total of 9.0mm. The most exciting weather now is in the North as a mix of todays thunderstorms formed over the Midlands earlier mix with the thundery rain from further South. Certainly unspectacular for 90% of the populous I would say.
