Not sure you'll need the aircon this week, but still good
A cooler week, with the South only reaching mid 20s, and a north/south divide around the M62 corridor. North of the M62 will be sub-20oC and sometimes wet. Summer continues south of the line, but sleep will be easier to come by!
A breakdown is never far away, so can't guarantee summer will continue, but for now it's
Yay, I'm glad it's getting cooler. It's been too hot to do much.A cooler week, with the South only reaching mid 20s, and a north/south divide around the M62 corridor. North of the M62 will be sub-20oC and sometimes wet. Summer continues south of the line, but sleep will be easier to come by!

Not really - only storms triggered by heat and humidity. The pressure for the next week or so is only around 1012-1020 mbar, so not proper summer and not Atlantic weather either. Pleasant, but dry... Any chance of rain in Gloucester?
Some chance of rain in the far SE - MetOffice warnings for today/tomorrow.

Looking at the radar, those storms just bubbled up and stayed in one position. That's going to wallop anything under it!Sonic said:

They cost about £15-20 from any decent garden centre or even at B&Q.
It's a bit of folded metal with some holes in the bottom - make one!!
MetOffice video shows why the storms were so bad in a limited area - they bubbled up and never moved!

Yep, still, probably saves having to water tonight. Pleasantly cool for a change too, whilst it was raining.https://twitter.com/metoffice/status/4937030380798...
