Simon: Thundery rain SE & East Anglia should fade by this afternoon, more this evening and overnight thought. Bits of rain for western Scotland but fair for other areas.

Simon: Looks like highest risk of showers this afternoon will be over eastern Midlands & southern England, but do expect few Wales & SW too. Showers over central Scotland.

Simon: rain is edging north into Wales and southern England. It is fading away, although some moderate rain could affect southern Ireland and southwest Wales as well as SW England.

Simon: Some really heavy showers for most of the country today. Thunderstorms and hail are possible. Drier along southern coasts of England. More persistent rain in southern Scotland and Northern Ireland, this edging into Cumbria later.
