I'm still waiting for it.

Anyone else had theirs? Feels like it's needed to reset things.

Weather forecasts are still often inaccurate despite all the technology. Around midnight I checked the forecast for today. 40-60% chance of light rain throughout the day. Checked again on waking as it seemed pretty bright out there. Now 7% chance of light rain around tea time

Yes I can believe. One week of sunshine and the media has to traumatise everybody.

Absolutely chucking it down here (between Bournemouth and Christchurch). Humidity has turned itself up a few notches. And, according to Accuweather, thunder and lightning to hit at 12pm, but they've been pushing it back an hour for the past 24 hours

Could really do with it right now, my head is pounding
