Cells now exploding over Northern Spain on latest sat24 image, pretty confident we will see something good from this

And i was just about to throw in the towel and go to bed. Not convinced this will develop into what we would all like but interesting all the same. My only concern is the current mcs sucking up all the energy?

Yes i thought the mcs had started a more northerly track but i think this was just the system building on its western flank, looks to be being pulled and pushed east quicker than ever.

I thought that, it also appears the movement has a slightly more northerly track than earlier. Fingers crossed some more cells fire up

I think i will give it until midnight and then go to bed, unless things start to evolve. If nothing else develops this will probably just pass through kent, good luck to you all there. Be just my luck i will go to bed and something will pop up LOL :lol:

Shall i inform the police?

Lol, i think you have more chance. I cant get over how humid it still is, had to open a can of beer to ease the heat well thats my excuse!

Yeah i saw those earlier, just the edge of the cold front moving over. To be honest though i'm not sure we will see much unless the stuff in the bay of biscay decides to develop out more to the west. Kent may well have a light show in the early hours.

Sadly i have to admit it looks that way, bloody French clinging on to all the fun again

As long as the c**p from the mcs does'nt hamper things

Lol, you lot do make me laugh, the humour on here is fab. This is going to be a late one, i doubt i shall be over productive at work tomorrow

Glad to see some members reporting storms, it does look as if things are kicking off more now. Good luck to you all

This is what i was hinting at earlier but i'm not sure exactly where these will track, there is a good chance they may also end up getting dragged too far west. Edit East!!!

At the moment i think Nelson has more chance of getting his arm back but you never know. In fact i may have made a good point there, looking at what Spain has got and what was forecast, maybe we are giving up too early

Crikey look at the development over northern Spain :blink: And to think Estofex only gave this area a 50% chance of lightning within 40km of a point and us a level 1

Looking out to the west of the bay there is a band of cloud and it is in this band a cell is forming, this may well end up hitting the south coast later.

On the latest pic's on sat24 there is definately something forming in that band of cloud out to the west in the bay of biscay. Dont all give up yet.

Is it just me or are there signs of something interesting appearing in the Bay of Biscay amongst the cloud out to the west? Small imbedded cells forming?

Looks like the cap has finally given out over in France, explosive cells firing up. Sadly these ones wont affect the uk.

Blimey those charts being churned out for tomorrow look like a sweet shop! Surely this must result in a massive BANG!!

Totally agree with this Harry, looking at the area over portugal and spain at the moment, current timing of the approaching cold front, steering winds and forecast day time tempreatures etc. I would expect thunderstorms to form over a wide area stretching maybe as far west as devon? Will again be a radar watching exercise.

I'm loving the look of the development on that lot. I really think a large swathe of the south of england will be in for a treat tommorow evening, i also would not be suprised to see storms breaking out a lot further west than many are expecting, the cold front looks as thouhgh it may come through later than previous forecasts.

Probably because they cant belive we will actually get a decent storm this year, going on previous performance!

A level 3, oh my lord we can but hope!! I'm down in the Portsmouth area so at least expecting decent light show.

Hello all, have been lurking on here for the last couple of years, given the possible event coming up i decided to at last get in on the action! Firstly thanks to all of you for your posts, has made great reading and an excellentt source of info. Very excited about the next couple of days potential, has anyone noticed the recent explosion of storms over Portugal and northern Spain, this must be a good sign for tommorow? As for Estofex i have viewed the forecasts from them every day for as long as i can remember and i have NEVER seen them skip a day like that, i guess there must be an awful lot of head scratching going on?
