I seem to remember at the beginning of this week forecasting some records going down on Wednesday. A new July hottest temp record was duly set. However at the time, my prediction was jumped on by a few trigger happy contributors

 

This time, I predicted a distinct lack of significant storms let alone super cells and it looks like the very same. It just goes to show that weather models tend to be unreliable. I wonder if the new supercomputer at the met office will overcome this in time...who knows?

 

Enjoy the nice sunset with a juicy barbecue!

custard or cream to go with your humble pie mate?...

Lightning to the West, North and East.... But zilch all here sadly! Enjoy the storm guys and remember not everyone is having them! (Acting sympathetic and hoping the atmosphere is listening... )  :rofl:

I suspect not. think it will all form north and west of here.

The somewhat disturbed looking mid-level cloud formations seem to have gone and clouds melting away here.

 

Not going to rule it out altogether, of course, but unless something blows up very quickly to the south, we're in for a quiet and probably dry night here.

 

Got that one wrong then, didn't i?!

Lol watching from home now, got out 10 miles onto the end of the mainland, beautiful rocks in the foreground with tide out, and forgot my remote release. At least I now know that location if nothing else, having a beer and watching this roll in
