The strike rate on that cell leaving France is steadily increasing:

We might well be in for a very good night...

I'm flying to Budapest shortly. Got a feeling I'm in for a bumpy ride.

Was nearly sent to Madrid this week - would have been returning to Gatwick at about 11pm tonight - i’m glad they cancelled it or I would have probably ended up stuck in Spain or redirected to Birmingham or somewhere

the last storm was even heavier than the earlier one peaking at 221.6 mm p hr, so total now 16.0 mm in 3 short spells=almost the total for June.

Drought well and truly broken after rain on 16 June until today.

Huge fire just to the west of Bournemouth airport apparently started by a lightning strike.

Probably that really loud strike people reported, was definitely a positive strike.

For those in western areas disappointed by lack of storms, do not worry we have a nice little treat Fri Night into Sat Morning which has gone under the radar. May produce some nasty thunderstorms for a time.

West/East Parley is west of Bournemouth Airport, around that way?

Goes to show the radar definately doesn’t show all the strikes  

... unless it was the pilot throwing his cigarette out of the window?

Looks quite bad hope all are safe and the fire fighters get it under control.

What the chances that Estofex will give the U.K. a level 1 somewhere for tomo?

Looking at what Tony is suggesting over on UKWW tomorrow has even better parameters in place for eastern England and suggests ‘low-end supercells’ could be a result

Obvs its dependant on factors still in play but his forecasts are regularly pretty spot-on
