I think these cells will die off in the Channel, if i'm not mistaken that the storms need to be elevated in nature therefore it wont be for another couple of hours yet and would explode in the channel as they wont be affected by sea temps.

The set up favours a clustering and development of these surface based storms into an elevated group.

Very true. Just head to the beach, we have a great view out to sea and of Brighton. 

If it's meant to be, I'll be around Worthing Pier ready to snap the action

Looks like there were problems with the radar and now we can see the storm in full fruition on the latest frame. Don't think it looks as bad as first feared.

About the same chance as slimstairs. Would think the most vulnerable object in a house would be the TV aerial or chimney.

Im so confused , does that mean a high chance or low

Phwoar, it’s been a while since I felt a warm southerly breeze like this. All Cu field at the moment here, nothing yet in the mid levels (although that’s to be expected) 

Fear not, PLENTY of mid-level stuff down here with your name on it!

We'll see, I think Broadstairs will be fine. Can see stuff over France, but sky here has nothing yet.

I’m already starting to wonder whether west of the red line is already game over....

BBC had a second wave of stuff (technical term) for Hamps/Dorst, 3-5 am?

Feeling rather warm and moist here now in the sun, still blue skies here. Could be a sweet spot here or once!

My first venture into the storms forum this year.... the prospects of some storms have brought me back out!! 

Although I can't say it's looking like a severe storm event with the current ingredients in play, it certainly looks like tonight could throw some lightning my way in Ely, Cambridgeshire. All eyes will be on this evenings developments high up - as others have said, 7-8pm onwards it should hopefully 'blow up' over the channel and head over the SE. Could even be later than 8pm until this happens.

Aww that's sad. Was really hoping for something.

My weather station has the humidity dropping in Taunton where I am as well. We might get rain edit, we are getting rain I can hear it on conservatory roof.  Just going to get washing in .

Sky so beautifully blue and scorching sunshine here, so plenty of insolation. I do wonder if we could squeeze a cheeky little surfaced based homegrown before the evening is out.  

As for the activity over France, it looks to me as if it’s travelling a lot more NNE than I thought it would. I still think the IOW to the wash and eastwards will see the greatest chances as we head down to the wire.

But this could be the first of two or three possible rounds over the next few days! It isn’t a one shot opportunity like some plumes.

It's severe due to possibly high rainfall rates

Humidity has jumped up as well from an hour ago , but the breeze is fresh and I'm not convinced about any crash bang whallops for us however nice . 

The sun is now out with a few spots of rain still around.  Love the British weather!

Don't confuse relative humidity with dew point. The RH will drop as it gets warmer during the day.

You need to use something like this to calculate the DP from the RH and temperature - watch the DP rise

Dew Point Calculator (www.dpcalc.org)

 

Thank you,  I didn't realise that . I will check the dew point out .

Not sure about this personally.

Most if not all high res don't anything Substantial leaving Northern France till around 6-7pm tonight..  those showers/thunderstorms are surface based storms feeding of the very high temperatures there.. the storms later will be elevated and judging by high res

I think the high res are too late with developnent, i.e. the projections for slow initiation 7-8pm over North France are happening now.. Will be interesting to see what later vertical advancement to the elevated / MCS phase does though.

Early days yet and everything so far looks like going to plan reaching 29.9c here now on the weather station..
