Original plan today was a big 100 mile road ride, Derby down to Cannock and back. Given all the forecasts for torrential rain today that was binned last night in favour of something shorter, local and with lots of cafes to bail into come Rainageddon.
Now looking out at a bone dry world, admittedly very sticky and humid. Who has got my rain then this morning?
none here also north of bakewell
Monsoons here in the Hope Valley. Has been raining since about 8pm last night in heavy bursts.
its peeing it down here in Milton Keynes! - ride while you can!
Actual monsoons here - but then im near as damn it on the equator on an island that largely rain forest.
Matlock had some torrential stuff during the night...
Chucking it down in 'The Boro' !
Throwing it down in Kettering
Sheffield's very soggy
Damp and sticky in Lancs but no rain. Pity our poor school cyclists who are doing the C2C from east to west over the next 5 days.
Exciting news, now have steady drizzle here in Ilkeston. Guess we've just been lucky so far!
Chucking it down in Mirfield, West Yorkshire, has been overnight as well !
Fine in Middleton By Youlgrave (just south west of Bakewell) Has rained overnight
This link should indicate where the rain is
Cavedale here i come!
I'm at the farm in Harrogate and despite the Biblical downpours last night we could still hear the Leeds Music Festival going on way over yonder hills. Ohhh those poor kids who thought the "endless summer" was here to stay..
It is still tipping it down her now and the Cows & Sheep hardly seem to care, which is what I'm going to do.
Yours,
Squelchy,
A fresh 13 deg and drizzle in Glasgow. Have ridden last 4 days so looking forward to a pool session while junior has a lesson at 10.
Surely this should be Warm Snow Updates!
Anyway persistent in Epsom. Not heavy though.
@Rob Jackson - bring a canoe with you! The rain was running down our lane like a river all night and it's raining now.
Slippery limestone in the rain, have you booked your slot with Edale MRT? 😀
aye be reight! Used to it - 20 years of slippy limestone!
Woke me up at 5 this morning in Lincolnshire, enjoyed the smug feeling I was in a nice bed and not camping up the road at Cadwell Park.
Persisting down here at 5.30 this morning, joy.. 🙁 at least I don't have to water my veggies...
15 hour shift today so better than being off and wet though..
Thunder storm and heavy rain overnight here in Worksop. Had planned to do Cutgate tomorrow, may have to change plans 🙁
We had it late last night today is looking promising but Mrs was once again has announced plans I hadn't been told about.
It sounds torrential on our tent but it's just light rain near Southwold.
When was bank holiday camping ever going to be a good idea 😐
its actually sunny here in the NWAlps atm
Few distant rumbles of thunder at the eastern edge of the NW Alps. All chairlifts suspended until this afternoon due to lightning, Alpine forecast suggesting storms later.
So it's been raining all night, it's not caught people unawares.
Why then are there people at the bus stop without a coat or brolley?
Pretty wet on my drive to the office:

Walked up to the shop last night and got totally soaked to the skin in the last 200m to home. It was biblical - no point in running as I was so wet in the first few seconds of it starting it didn't seem worth it.
No rain at the moment but very black skies.
cavedale was wet but fine
Early morning Cambridgeshire was ready for canoeing but the lightning was amazingly bright!

been out for 30 miler, no rain, over cast for half and other half it was sunny, worried at one point I'd not put any sunscreen om
I was due to cycle commute this morning but binned it off when I saw the rain.
Shame on me . Now lying in bed listening to the precipitation banging on the window .
Deffoe riding in tmora tho'.
Tipping it down in SE Londonshire and forecast to stay that way overnight. Likely to be on the winter bike tomorrow - there'll be standing water everywhere
Sunny, hot and dry in Madrid.
Haven't seen rain for over a month now, and that was when I went to north Spain on holiday.
You son of a...

You son of a...Enjoy!
Sort of, I live here - the joy of a sunny morning starts to wear off when you have to go to work anyway... And it's bloody cold in winter. And stupidly hot in summer, which is nice when you go to the pool but crap if you want to go running, for example...

Not bad up at my beloved's in Blackpool. 8)
My facebook suggests South Essex is flooding quite seriously - which is nice as I moved away over a year ago - friends are posting lots of videos of the seafront flooding.
Stafford is nice and dry, the kids and I did 11.5Km earlier, good work for a 6 year old and an 8 year old.
forecast dry tomorrow and monday now here, been dry all day here too NWAlps
Been a stunningly good day in the shire.
