UKV showed it on yesterday's 12Z.

It did. 

But there’s also past events that the Euro 4 has called, and often nailed them. It called the bust last month with them storms developing offshore. A very good track record it has attained.

Some development in south wales

Interestingly ventusky has pushed mid Wales cape up to 800j/kg.  Manchester cape dropped to 600j/kg. Hmmm.

[Jamie M]

It is here.

[Liam Ellis]

There must be one hell of a cap here because none of these 'bubbly' clouds seems to be developing into storms in nw Wales. Saying that, I've sat in the garden all afternoon, it's hot in the sun and there's a nice warm breeze picking up now.

Yap -  Picked up a couple more strikes from it.

[Marcus_surfer]

Looks like its starting to fire up south wales 

[Harry]

Oi oi!!!! Sky looking more agitated now.

[Dangerous55019]

The skies have cleared here, so I think it’s time for me to throw the towel in on this one today. 
 

Anyway... This is the current state of where the lightning is at this moment, so good luck to everyone else with this today. 

 

[Chris.R]

Very strong insolation in the past half hour. Currently 24.1/13.6.

[Flash bang flash bang etc]

Reading UKWW sounds like we are battling rather unfavourable conditions. Need more moisture over land, and this cap needs to do one

[Zak M]

This isn’t the anvil that I was on about but I have also noticed this to my SE

[Richard Taylor]

We've got the torrential rain in Aberdeen for the last 20mins or so, but not any lightning. May have died out in the N.Sea but we'll see.

The warm mid level nose not doing us any favours. A bit of luck maybe?

[Jamie M]

Let the thunder commence!

A couple of heavy down poors now, well needed, and a couple of distant rumbles so far. Let's hope these things continue and get stronger. 

[Harry]

The unstable air clearly rocketing in through Kent right now. Look at the development on the downpour just passing Maidstone - there is 5 mins between these radar grabs

[Cheshire Freeze]

This country is pathetic for storms. There's always some parameter that is off that ends up bringing the whole potential down. 

A 'warm nose' I'm not happy, in fact I'm quite sad

[Ryukai]

Skies seem to be getting a bit more organised up here now. Clouds are larger based and have much more clear air between them letting more sun through. Temps still rising slowly again also, around 23C now.

Hear you loud and clear man, it does seem that way a lot of the time.
