Thunder is on the table for London today. That's the signal worth leading with.
The important distinction between this morning and this evening is that conditions are not uniform across the day. Right now, through the bulk of the working hours, blustery and wet is the operating environment.
One honest caveat worth flagging: the exact timing of thunder is not pinned down. Afternoon is the most likely window, but the forecast doesn't specify a precise hour.
There's a genuine upside to this evening, and it's worth keeping in mind. Showers are expected to turn drier as the day progresses, with actual sunny spells emerging in the late hours.
The practical takeaway from today's forecast is straightforward: dress for rain, use the tube for morning and midday travel, and keep the evening free if you want your best outdoor window. The one uncertainty worth tracking is whether thunder develops significantly in the afternoon.
