    Hope this explains it? http://stormhighway.com/types.php

    DS9 wouldn't help much, one pause in speech and you will hear the thunder if it happens at the same time. Best try Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon!! Or Thunderclap Newman, 'Something in the Air'

    It would appear that Belgium doesn't want to share its storm here, maybe due to pending Brexit? It's all gone a bit quiet, perhaps we will get some ammo imported for tomorrow, but for now it's time for bed!!!!!!

    Much better than I can offer! All I have here in Essex is Blue skies!
  5. Wet'n'Dry
    You might just have one there. Not the best angle but for sure shows convection and upward motion!
  6. Wet'n'Dry
    I would love to see some pileus clouds if anyone manages to capture one. I've not seen one in years!!
  7. Wet'n'Dry
    Does anyone have an insight as to if that storm in Belgium will make it across the channel this evening?
  8. Wet'n'Dry
    Some impressive cloudscapes over there, been watching it build on this live webcam! https://webcam.nl/bouw/leiden/

    I think that is very unlikely. The 4 distinct storms exiting France and Belgium have decayed by more than 50% in the last hour. Moving from over land to sea has killed the potential energy they're able to harvest and it's in my opinion a dead duck from here on!!

    It's certainly dragging its heels. I've been watching it since 16:00, it's slowly tracked North but seems to be back building taking advantage of surface heating. I would be surprised it it makes it across the channel, and the latest sferic S/E of Eastbourne is probably a glitch!!
  11. Wet'n'Dry
    I took a look outside and the few clouds here are going East to West. No chance of the French storms making landfall in the S/E UK. Seen it all before, no Kent clipper, No Thames streamer so time for bed children!!!

    Almost constant thunder from the storm here earlier as it tracks N/Easterly, I wouldn't be surprised if it merges with the one further up.
  13. Wet'n'Dry
    The storm here is a real cracker, not much thunder but massive amounts of pea sized hail and the road's already flooded in just a few minutes.
  14. Wet'n'Dry
    Thunder down here just now, leaden skies and hardly any wind to speak of.
  15. Wet'n'Dry
    Afternoon all, it would seem there's a bit of backbuilding going on. Down here in Essex the sky has become very convective in the last hour, before then it was clear! Massive towers are popping up all around but noticeably more to the North of my location.
  16. Wet'n'Dry
    Meanwhile in Essex it's blazing hot, clear skies, a light breeze and not much else to talk about. Except maybe my beer could be colder!!
  17. Wet'n'Dry
    Over 60+ strikes, it's gone nuts!!
  18. Wet'n'Dry
    That looks angry!!
  19. Wet'n'Dry
    Could have got a few bottles of San Miguel, suppose I will have to do with Carlsberg. Nicely hot here still and with a cooling breeze. Good luck to those getting or expecting storms this evening

    The upward acceleration of the convective cloud pushes the moisture ahead of it forming a 'cap' Similar to the vortices you see from F1 cars rear wings under humid conditions.
  21. Wet'n'Dry
    That's cool, I've not seen Pileus for years!!
  22. Wet'n'Dry
    I think the main event is over for tonight. Just leave a window open and let any rain noise lull you to sleep
  23. Wet'n'Dry
    Storm approaching The Hague in Holland has the locals running for cover. Visible strikes on webcam!! http://www.scheveningenlive.nl/boulevard-webcam/ Edit to add: In the time it took to post it has gone beserk!!
  24. Wet'n'Dry
    Same here, I've had my South facing kitchen door open since 1pm and not a single drop of rain has touched the floor!!
  25. Wet'n'Dry
    I wouldn't worry so much. The storms are elevated and the lightning I have seen is all Intracloud (IC) This means it is more commonly known as sheet lightning, the most benign type. If it was a convective type storm with Fork lightning (CG) then it would be a concern. Enjoy the light show if it arrives but don't worry unnecessarily
