Much cloudier here now, bike big bases on the clouds. I think east of here could get something.

Is that a surface-based storm over near Norwich which has just kicked-up?

It could be; there's renewed thunder here, and it's up to the north?:good:

Not a lot going on if you're in the south or south west, I think it's game over for today. :(

Building rapidly, looks to be heading south of here, probably Wakefield if it keeps on developing.

Actually I can now see towers to the south but there's a building in the way to the north so I can't comment.

Blitzortung also showing activity just to the south of here but there's a tree in the way, so again I cannot comment

To be honest, a few days ago it looked promising for us over here, but the shift eastwards came in day by day in the model outputs. The problem is, as AJ mentioned yesterday, the steering flow (T500 and T700 I believe) has resulted in a much more progressive movement of potential thunderstorms, rather than the original more Northward path up from the S coast. This originally meant showers were going to form more widely across SW quadrant of England along the surface trough, but that is currently moving across the SE corner, with the storms forecast later to develop along areas of wind convergence.
