Cooler here but no rain, Dorset

We had some rain early morning as the drive was samp when I got up but unfortunately none since. The temperature is lower but it is overcast and so muggy. We are near where there have been fires and houses have burnt down we could do with a good downpour for a fee hours to help put out any lingering fires. The poor fireman and support workers ,just be exhausted. My heart goes out to the people who have lost their homes.

Yes we had quite a lot of rain in East Yorkshire last night. It was lovely.

.....here on the Kent coast. For about 20 minutes. It dried up so quickly. Blink and you wouldn't have even known. But it's considerably cooler here today.

A welcome relief.
