An english summer - lovely! :*:

Hope you get the drain sorted soon or that could get nasty with all the rain you get in Sheffield!

It's not raining in Central London but my colleague is working at home on the Essex/London outskirts and they have heavy rain.

I woke up to a lovely hot summer's day here in East Anglia.

Come 5pm, the thunder and lightning kicked off, joined by torrential rain.

No hail as yet. Its nice and sunny again now.

We're getting sporadic heavy showers and then bright sunshine. Wierd.

Hailstones in Leicestershire today, too. Sky turned a brilliant colour, brought out all the shades of green in the trees :D

I got soaked on the way home last night - trust me not to take an umbrella to work. My usual shortcut was impassable as it was flooded - as were a lot of the main roads into the town - cars were stalling everywhere as it was too deep. I've never seen it that bad! Not that I minded as I don't drive, it was just fascinating to me!

But the storm seems to have knocked out my internet which isn't so good! :evil:

I was working in similar location and the hailstones were mighty. About the size of a large bean and bouncing at least three foot off the ground. Was in an endless meeting and wanted to be out in the rain, love that powerful rain - though hail is a bastard.

Been sunny today and just clouding over now. Wild stuff.

I seem to have managed to dodge the rain and hail for the past two days. It's been really sunny and hot here in Warrington. I was over in Hull today and it was the same there - Scotland tomorrow, so it will probably snow!

Got piss wet through monday, took my daughter to meadowhall to get some play sand, was fine when we went, came out an it was lagging it down........me & her both in shorts too, not good. add to the fact that i had to hold her hand and i'd got a pram full with two 15kilo bags of sand, we we're bound to get wet on the way to the car!

I went to a tent show in all the rain. Must have been mad. Had to take some wellies as the field it was held in was submerged under a couple of inches of water. I thought I would be the only one insane enough to be there but it was quite busy! It was certainly a good way of finding out if the tent I wanted let water in or not.

I am most deperessed with the unsettled weather we have experienced over the last couple of years. Christ, I went abroad a few weeks looking for some sun. OK, a few days were sunny, but it still hammered it down, thundered like it was armageddon and we got chased out of one town by a fucking tornado...

Cheers, Steve.
