Storms and Convective discussion - May 2024

[ChannelThunder]

Coming into Netweather radar range now! Better for judging their true path than satellite. 

[Eagle Eye]

New storm in the channel maybe. Looks like a false strike through.

[Azazel]

 Eagle Eye man, would literally kill for accessible Doppler coverage in the U.K. 

[CoventryWeather]

Storm back in the Netherlands. 

[Thunders]

 Azazel wouldnt we all

[Lauren]

Hmmmm, could end up being a very thin band looking at things 

[biddie]

Paris cam anyone. Those storms came from nowhere in 15 minutes

[Eagle Eye]

Rough direction of travel. 

[biddie]

 Eagle Eye if they make it across a very cold channel . Normal for Paris this time of year

[Eagle Eye]

 biddie

Should turn elevated. 

[biddie]

 Dami none I can see

[Eagle Eye]

In fact elevated in the next few hours as night falls. Channel doesn't help energy but the energy should move across with it. 

[Dami]

 biddie Yeah it's very hit and miss, i don't think it working amazing well

[Eagle Eye]

Few small showers here with some building cumulus. Instability showing,

[matty40s]

I think the Eiffel tower has put a Sou'Wester on...

Webcam in Paris, France. With the livecam in Paris, France earthTV shows via livestream the view from the Peninsula Paris hotel on the Eiffel Tower and The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris.

a clearer one, but i'm not seeing anything to speak off, although lightning maps proves a different story (that is IF you can get past the ads)

 Dami  Could be looking the wrong way. Potentially interesting if the supposed Supercell combines to the cell. Does it move left of it's initial vector because of the combination? Feels very much possible if it's left moving. More storms forming west of this one now.

 Bolt From Blue Late summer is slightly better as the sea is a bit warme. Really need a South East surface wind so the fetch over the sea is shorter then doesn't cool so much to produce the clag.

[Dami]

 Eagle Eyeyeah true. Although i'm surprised as it's now dark it would show something! 

[ChannelThunder]

Clusters on the east appear to be travelling NNW, clusters to the west are more NW

[Frosty hollows]

Looks like some kind of organisation happening west of Swindon with cells forming on the Eastern flank of the rain band

[East_England_Stormchaser91]

Be interesting to see how this pans out. Most of the potential energy is actually capped in across BeNeLux and anywhere NE of Paris. Anywhere up to Norfolk from Kent could be in with a shout, but more likely Kent is going to come off best from this one. Sussex and parts of Hants more likely to see precip from the main band, but probably less in the way of electrical activity the further South and west you go.

[Cain]

Those showers near Swindon have popped up from no where 

[viking_smb]

 Cain  one of the forecasts did say it will pep up for a while
