Camera batteries on charge, phone on charge, action cam on charge. Although as per usual, it approaches Hastings and dies out and peps up again toward Kent/inland.

I'll be down Bottle Alley west of the pier if it does kick off here.

Looks like a good night for the South if it makes it over the channel and doesn't die off, not at all jealous  Hoping theres more chances this Summer

Currently in the firing line. How exciting. Has that MCS off north west France actually moved all day?

I originally thought this might be Lyme Bay's night but it seems to be tracking east yet again?

Intensity lost as it begins it's slog across the channel.

Does anyone know why the channel often does this? Elevated convection in theory shouldn’t be affected by cold water, but I’ve seen elevated storms die a death as soon as they dip their toes in.

storms seem to have zero issue exploding to life in the North Sea so what is the issue with that thin strip of water?

Yup it’s struggling expect the radar returns to start ‘mushing out’ 

Expect this
