BLOODY storm chasing journey ending in disaster yet again, absolute garbage as usual with the "storms" I was after dying a death as I got anywhere close. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
-
So many showers on radar - yet not a drop of rain.
-
Apparently all the activity has gone east again, so I don't believe I will seeing anything today....still.
-
Well then, I have charged up my camera and if nothing comes to me, I am off out storm chasing. I will find the buggers myself and not miss out.
-
Well that first week of July just gone was a bit of a fail in many ways (bar two days).
So now for my "Unforecast" for the second week.
My guesses valid July 8th-14th:
Thunderstorms: 0, zero, zilch, nowt.
Warmth (over 22 degrees): None
Sunny day (over 10 hours of sun): None
Dry days (no rain falling at all): None
Unforecast confidence: 100%
Chance of total verification: 100%. I'll quote back to this on July 14th and no doubt, I will have been right!

I went storm chasing a "storm" near Ashbourne and the thing died out as I caught up with it.
Anyway it's turned out a bit sunnier now after the last of the showers here. and also reached 17.1°C.
-
A wintry 13.9°C with a howling arctic wind and continuous drizzle.

Summary of the models
High pressure remains bold and firm over Greenland throughout the time period to 168 hours (one week).
For the UK,
Initially low pressure dominated with cold, wind rain and cloud til 60 hour.
High pressure ridges up north from the mid-Atlantic Ocean at about 72 hours. A maritime northerly wind develops on the eastern edge of this, right down over the british isles, so remaining cool/cold out til over 100 hours from now, but dryer though with much cloud and possible drizzle.
As we head towards a week out we see high pressure center develop jusT N of Scotland developing more of a NE flow and then riding stronger toward the south by 138 hours.
Towards a week out this center then appears to move into the north sea bringing a transient E/SE wind and perhaps one warm day with the next lot of low pressure making inroads by about 186 hours.
It would be right to conclude the continuation of below average temperatures for the most part, with probably higher levels of cloud than normal and also average amounts of rain for most areas.

Something going on outside here coulda swore that was thunder
That was somebody moving their wheelie bin. If you have to question it then it ain't a thunderstorm.
-
Well it has become a bit of a joke here.... Manchester, just 20 miles from me has already had about 5-10 thunderstorms this year, all that we missed.
This place is a miserable boring hole for weather. Cold, damp, dreary and 50+ inches of rain a year with nout thunderstorms. Crap-hole.
Looks like today's crapvection isn't coming to much either, apart from the usual SE and these days, NE. Just a cold Novemberish day in July like all the other summers since 2006.
My camera has been waiting on standby for 10 months to record a storm and i feel like throwing it out of the window in frustration.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Am I still the only one in here now?
Probably. I want to go to Florida to see some lightning/thunder this year but I can't afford it. I know I won't get any here, not had it since last July and already not looking like happening this year if my current unluck is anything to go by.
-
Seems like the NE of England gets most of the storms these days.
-
Wet morning then mostly cloudy with a few light showers PM, low of 10.7, high of 16.2. Total rainfall of 6.8mm.
Still no thunder-storm so I'm still waiting for the first one of the year.
-
It tried to rain but gave up. None measurable here.
Anyway the effect of the cold front moving through is felt, down to only 16.1°C from 21.2°C at 11:00AM.
-
A sunny morning, and becoming mostly cloudy PM.
Max of 22.3°C
Min of 13.1°C
No rain and quite a bit of sunshine.
-
A R E V U E O F T H E W E A T H E R
High 21.4°C
Low 9.4°C
A mostly sunny day.
-
Low of just 5.4 degrees and a high of an average 19.5 degrees. Currently 17.7 degrees. Started quite clear but became mostly cloudy throughout the afternoon.
-
just double checked and that is how it shows, 14 days below 21.4C max; data available on my web site
front page-statistics-either Davis or for full corrected temps max and min go to excel
the costa del donny effect perhaps?
Nope. Just over exposed readings. Even London Heathrow's average high was lower.

A pretty uneventful month up here. Apart from 2-3 warm days it was mostly cool and unsettled.

It's now freezing cold at only 15.7°C and overcast, why people would want this in summer I don't know. Yesterday was the perfect summer's day and if every day was like that then maybe we could actually believe what we are saying when we call this season "SUMMER".
-
I have taken a look at the various models and concluded that if you want summer in July you will not see much like it this first half. I do think that temperatures will return to average by the second half after we have this north wind all first half and some very cold nights.
-
Those are some huge storms breaking out over SE England. I'm well jealous.
-
Singapore is thousands of miles away. You can see France from Kent.
I think I got that part.
We're referring to a storm that is getting further from the UK.... hence my point it might as well be on the other side of the world RE its chances of ever getting to the UK.
-
The 1800z Eumetsat.
What is the point in this?
That storm is already well east of the UK and moving into Belgium. It means nothing for the UK. Conditions over France are totally different from what we have over here with the convection inhibiting capping and stratus cloud over us. This is meaningless. It's in another country for heaven's sake.
Let's all get excited about storms in Singapore while we're at it.

I live in the west part near the Cheshire border. We have now had an incredible 1.6mm of rain today, and 2 distant rumbles of thunder. WHOWWWWWW!
