[lorenzo]

Just finished work have a great view from Gyle. Complete unadulterated cloud porn. Amazing skies in this light.

Huge bank of Cu, Cb beyond the airport to the west. Approaching from the south a monster Cb mothership.

CAPE for tomorrow also looking good .

[Northernlights]

Roguing wild oats out of the barley tonight as its slightly cooler with less insects. Currently 21c. Really special to see a fiery sunset over the Firth

[howham]

Radar looks interesting in the southern uplands at the moment.

[Cheggers]

Some heavy rain earlier, but has now cleared, still very warm though.

[Coast]

[Stuart]

had some thunder not that long ago But did not see any Lighting

[Ceitidh]

Fair number of rumbles of thunder around here at the moment. 

[Ross B]

Few rumbles on the edge of Edinburgh at the moment, I think....

[skyeblue]

Thunder over heed now ,no lighting thou

[A Winter's Tale]

Plenty of rumbles of thunder, a number of flashes and one bolt of lightning. Quieter now with steady rain.

[NUT]

It a bit wet oot there again 

[Ross B]

Love this weather. .. the sun has came out after the downpour and steam is rising off the pavements. Hopefully we'll get a cracker of a storm today!

[Ross B]

That "decent convection" I was talking about is now a strong little shower on the radar, it has popped up from nothing much in an hour.

Grand! The sky is dark in all directions so here's hoping!

[NUT]

Absolutely torrential rain now!

[Mesosphere]

That shower to my S/SE (Catch's direction) has turned electrical according to the netweather radar, hope it moves ever so slightly to the west otherwise i'll be sideswiped

 

Edit: Also got my eye on that Carlise cell

Greenfaulds bone dry .outside in the garden with iPad .Noticed the dark clouds that gave thunder early were heading north west .Then the really dark clouds that passed there were heading south east whits that all about .have not got a clue and I don,t think they have ether

[NUT]

Skies ready to perhaps darken again I wonder........................

[NUT]

Round 3 today is on. Unreal!

[Methuselah]

You jammy buggers! 

[Mesosphere]

Fairly sure this was asked in the convective thread the other night but cant seem to find it. 

 

Anybody have any idea what could be causing the weird anaprop that covers all of SW Scotland at random intervels? 

 

 

 

Seen it for quite a few days now 

[Ross B]

I always blame radar defects on whitelee wind farm, the anaprop is usually much smaller than that though!
