the carmarthen cell is pretty impressive on radar

Hi everyone...I'm new in here after a few years of being an outsider. Clouds building up right here in Bromsgrove north Worcs with tiny spots of rain & breeze picking up.

and its not moving either and its generating a decent amount of strikes

Most storms appear to be over the western side of Wales at the moment... Hopefully they’ll keep moving east, and stay electrified.

one has just exploded up over me to the west of Swansea, thunder at least twice a minute

[Flash bang flash bang etc]

Not very likely, there’s a three way convergence in that area, and elsewhere profiles don’t look too supportive for anything of significance

[viking_smb]

will they fade during this evening?

You can’t just go from low to moderate lol. Where’s the slight?

[ancientsolar]

that's a very large cell over SW Wales,. rarely do you see it that intense over so many miles

[Sky Full]

Constant distant thunder in this location with these cn clouds on the southern horizon....  Lovely sight and it’s only MAY!

Someone in the Carmarthen to Swansea area is getting a good show - pity it’s broad daylight though....

There is a line of Cu developing from the wash down to the seven estuary,something to keep an eye on.

So.... I said "100% to keep an eye on". I shouldn't have said that!

[Dangerous55019]

Just had a light shower of rain... As it cleared, I’ve got the sight of this impressive tower going up directly to my south.

swathe of the heads of the valleys seems to have started with precip, 
meanwhile Blackwood just gets darker

[Marcus_surfer]

Angry skies looking north towards Carmarthen 

[viking_smb]

rain mountain ash northwards now, just forming, and that is due to valley topography 

[TJS1998Tom]

Something seems to be brewing to my North
