Had the worst PE lesson ever, a hailstorm and got hit with pretty large hailstones, heavy rain, wind and had my knees and hands turn blue so all in all if you're a Storm Fanatic like me, it was brilliant.Came from a well formed band of showers sort of like a squall line, threatened lightning a lot seemingly but didn't near me. Sorry for the emoji can't not send it.

Good convective skies here and a bit of mammatus as that latest shower moves through it also had a rumble of thunder IMG_20210312_140235.thumb.jpg.0325cbc469b2330e54c4e5ac6e91b850.jpgIMG_20210312_142042.thumb.jpg.1be4f363177cd41561eae5700de1641f.jpgIMG_20210312_142049.thumb.jpg.2c04621319922cbe602f6da12bf834ab.jpgIMG_20210312_142032.thumb.jpg.9f98db3467f113ee63e90fa8abd40a78.jpgIMG_20210312_142129.thumb.jpg.a3bfb936ac66e79417f166a797f36248.jpgIMG_20210312_142101.thumb.jpg.862e70e2cfa5ff21283bcd7802fa71b5.jpgIMG_20210312_142144.thumb.jpg.56225c423203f37681ac8db1885b52aa.jpg

Looks like the Downs had some influence on that mini thunderstorm earlier this morning.

Day 1 Convective Outlook

VALID 06:00 UTC Sat 13 Mar 2021 - 05:59 UTC Sun 14 Mar 2021

ISSUED 08:21 UTC Sat 13 Mar 2021

ISSUED BY: Dan

Broad upper trough covers the British Isles on Saturday, with a trough axis swinging southeastwards across Ireland in the morning and England/Wales during the afternoon hours. Thereafter upper ridging begins to build from the west, such that the steering flow veers more northwesterly and convection begins to weaken. Nonetheless, scattered showers will affect some areas through this forecast period, most frequent in western areas. Given a few hundred J/kg CAPE and some modest shear, a few sporadic lightning strikes will be possible - although once again the risk is generally 10-15% in any one location. Gusty winds and hail will likely accompany several showers.

Had the first proper hail shower of the year around 1'o'clock'ish.  It's all streaming through the gap, so got my fingers crossed and hoping for something 'noisy' a bit later.

Hi everyone, it is nice to be out of winter hibernation and I’m hoping for a good storm year this year - seemed to always be on the edge of everything last year.

Enjoying the first proper convection of the year for me right now - had a neat little hail shower come through 10-15 minutes ago and this next one, which has a nice anvil and mean looking rain/hail curtain, is probably just going to brush past in the next 10 minutes.

No thunder or lightning, although wouldn’t be surprised if it strained out a rogue one on its way past.

Dodging hailstorms today on the coast of the Severn Estuary. This cell packed it’s way into Bristol to the north but I stayed dry here.

Hail, torrential downpours, gales and snowfall down to two hundred meters in the last couple of days.

Proper early Spring weather!

Winter 2020/21 was fairly quiet on the convective weather front here! (Great stuff the last couple of Winters)

January delivered a day or two of interest.

Looking forward to late Spring/Summer!

All the best to you all.

A shiny new thread. As expected last week brought severe thunderstorms for a few of us. Not everywhere has been affected though and where some have been deluged, others have remained dry. A fantastic week for storm enthusiasts (I am still editing my videos from both Tuesday night and Wednesday evening), not so good for those caught in the flooding.

Old thread here 

It's busy in here at the minute, so please be mindful that if your post is not to do with convective weather it should not be in here. It will likely remain busy with further thunderstorms expected over the next four days and the risk spreading north once more. So please, carry on chatting and enjoying.

Just been reading through that old thread. I wonder if we will get a week like that this year!
