Convective/Storm Discussion Thread - 1st August onwards
mac_ replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Yep pretty severe weather today here in N Ireland. Numerous rounds of storms from mid-afternoon. Thunder just kept on going for most of the day. Then the the really big storms hit just after it got dark - perfect timing really! And what a show - frequent vivid lightning and explosive thunder. Power was out here for a couple of hours and there are widespread reports of flooding. Amazing stuff. -
Would be nice to have a long settled spell but the jet stream way too far south for that. Definitely not the worst summer I can remember - plently of storms and fairly warm with sunshine most days much better than some years.

Thanks all for the very informative posts Knocker. I'm a bit confused by the term 'amplication'. Would be grateful if you can explain it. Cheers. -

Hi Andy - yep afraid so. I think on average we manage 2 thunder days a month here in August. As you say it must have been a similar set-up. An even better storm rolled through this evening with fantastic skies. -

Really intense storm here in Co Antrim for past couple of hours. Frequent bright lightning and at ground-shaking thunder - best storm I've seen in years! -
Time will tell, looks pretty strong to me. Capel Curig gusts up to 81 mph http://www.xcweather.co.uk/

Lights flickering in Antrim....exceptionally windy, just when you think the gust has reached its maximum it gets even stronger.
