Over a month’s worth of rain has fallen since midnight in parts of England.

Not only did the amazingly talented davidlowemusic compose the BBC News theme tune (25yrs ago), but he was also responsible for this ear worm too.

Who knew!

Good morning from London lovely people! 👋🏻

Hope you had a good weekend.

After experiencing temperatures 10C+ above normal in places, this week will see them drop to closer where they should be for early-May 🌦️

Helloooooo United Kingdom!

#SuperSunnySaturday ☀️

🔴Breaking: Flash floods ravage #Afghanistan , killing more than 300 people in Baghlan and destroying more than 1000 houses.

This has been one of many floods over the last few weeks, due to unusually heavy rainfall. WFP is now distributing fortified biscuits to the survivors.

Thanks to all of you who have shared your aurora photos from last night with me - so so many! Glad you got to experience it.

The solar storm that caused it isn’t expected to be quite so strong tonight, but it *may* still be visible once dark sets in. Good luck!

Clearly visible to the eye here in Buckinghamshire now too

I’ve been wanting to see this since I had a glow-in-the-dark Ready Brek poster of it as a 7yr old lad 🥰

Strongest aurora in 20 years this evening.

This is the astounding view as far south as Switzerland a short while ago …on top of Jungfraujoch 😍😍

via Jungfrau.ch

Potentially a big night for #aurora spotting right across the UK tonight 🤞🏻 (*clear skies permitting)

This apparently was the sky a short while ago as far south as Slovenia 😮

Good luck!

Good luck to all those doing the #TenTors this weekend ⛰️
