downpour

A few showers are expected, perhaps even with isolated thundery downpours in southern areas, as the warm weather breaks down.

Despite some occasional downpours, spring has been incredibly dry so far this year for a number of areas.

I love a good torrential spring downpour, so I’ve felt a little cheated.

Some downpours are likely but there should also be drier interludes and spells of sunshine.

Even with the severe storms that battered a few parts of England with intense rain, hail and thunder on Saturday 22 March, many places avoided the heavy downpours.
