Any idea when we could expect to see the first signs of life in France for tonight? 

Not panicking, more so that I know when to start radar watching!

Those cells along the Welsh border literally came from nowhere

I did say there was TCU building a few hours ago,and nothing here but a thundery shower to the south heard 6 rumbles a while back.

are those cells in Wales still producing lightning? looks like they heading NNE

The one over Oswestry is, the one south of Shrewsbury seems to have stopped producing sferics

It's remarkably...unremarkable out there. Although there is an interesting developing line north of Angers...

When that line of cloud came over a few big spots of rain,top of 1 cloud turned very small parted off, and the wind changed direction to the west so a convergence line.

Far too early to call it a bust. Would say it's a bust when there have been no lightning strikes across SE England/North France at midnight.

Models generally don’t indicate much in the way of developments across N France until around or after 9pm. Little while to go yet.

This area looks promising to me; represented well by some decent convective clouds on the Sat24 within the mass of cloud.

Can hear the Shrewsbury cell on the radio. A spheric about every eight seconds. I can only dream of that sort of strike rate here.

Would expect development In the 8-9 range. Also the placement of development is the most important thing like last week.

Is that more North West to other models?

N Shrewsbury cell has suddenly intensified, think it is heading NE towards Stoke and Macclesfield?

It had better not- it came from Oswestry direction, if it gets 10 miles away and then effs off in that direction it'll prove most storms are allergic to this area

I noticed this earlier today with the ICON and AROME models both going for 2 areas of rainfall with some interest for more western areas tomorrow morning during rush hour. However the latest AROME has since dropped the idea.

ICON 12z still goes for it around 7am for the W country but whether this modelled rainfall is active in terms of lightning is up for debate.
