It pains me to say it, but I have lots of that here too. lol
Haha, I love the stuff, not just because there's instability in the air, but I love the shape of them.
Very lightly raining here, but feeling quite humid and it's quite dull and hazy, certainly feels thundery.
-
@ajpoolshark, we have some stunning Altocumulus Castellanus clouds here!
-
Oh, now I see what you mean. I keep thinking what's coming in today isn't an actual low.

Sorry? No, it sounded like as if Jcweather was saying that the LOW was going to be to the south of the UK, but that's incorrect it's going to affect western areas of the UK.

Looking like all this low pressure will miss me to the South
To the south? No, that's incorrect. It'll be too the north if anything.
Anyway, more showers developing now out west. -

Not at all surprised, if it wasn't going to be Netweather then I thought it was going to be MeteoGroup.
-
@Summer Sun, finally something eventful! RIP trees!
Just noticed a torrential downpour has erupted near Plymouth!
-
Yeah, if the Met Office is correct, then the Isles of Scilly and Cornwall could well get thunderstorms later on. Interesting that it puts a downpour slap bang over the top of me, too.
-
I agree with @Chris K. Doesn't look too good, but we shall have to see what happens.

Yeah, a little rogue one! Is there on the historical Blitzortung map for the UK from a few hours ago.
As for the next few days, hopefully some more activity before Friday and after Sunday as going camping in Wales in between!
Really? Well, unfortunately there wouldn't have been a lightning strike anyway, there was no precipitation in the area.

here we are, in the dead of night, a little surprise strike over Dartmoor
then i checked the radar, and there are some returns down there, one little isolated shower
Sorry, but where were you seeing this? There wasn't a detected lightning strike or shower?
-
Very unstable looking skies in the Isles of Scilly! There are developing elevated showers which may turn to thunderstorms through this evening!

I have just read Matt Hugo's forecast for today and it says this: "However, parts of Ireland, Wales and SW England will see an increasing risk of some locally heavy and perhaps thundery showers later today and overnight into Wednesday", I can't see that anywhere else?
Altocumulus Castellanus cloud visible on this webcam:
But, yeah if I'm being perfectly honest, most thunder risk will be the further west you are not east like some posters have said, most of the instability is tied up at mid level within the front not at surface based ahead of the front.
-
Still think we'll get some thundery rain and/or thunderstorms through tomorrow night into Thursday as the warm front moves in from the SW. Can already see instability building west of the Isles of Scilly.
-
@legritter, slightly off topic, but there's something wrong with your keyboard.
-
Met Office and GFS still agreeing on a thundery breakdown later on Wednesday.
-
Really starting to notice the nights drawing in now, the other night I was on the PC and hadn't looked outside for a while, I was shocked when it was pitch black outside!

especially away from the SW.
Sorry, but I'm not seeing that anywhere. The SW is going to bask in a few days of sunny and warm weather.
-
GFS still hinting at a thundery breakdown later on next week!

Good to see u back dude. Since you've been away we haven't had any storms - do you have some sort of secret weather control machine hidden away you haven't told us about?
Thank you. Not at all, in fact I'm not really going to be posting until we get any actual thunderstorms, I've got excited over nothing too many times!
-
Warm and sunny weather to come according to the ECM and GFS! Could end up with an intense thundery breakdown as well!

Thank you, just needed some time away to rethink my actions on the forum.
