A few spots of rain now nice and rather big drops along with a humid smell as the drops hit the dry, warm concrete surfaces.
Looks like a good shower has come down over Hillmorton,Hallswel way going by the 8pm radar quite steady too.
Havnt seen any lightning flashes yet although i havnt really been looking westwards.
Cheers
Jason.

Yes we had a nice very quick shower with huge droplets but very short lived. Amazing how the radar shows it up. It appears as quick as it disappears on there! Very warm 20 degrees
