A few panoramas of today's storm coming in over the Moelwyns & Rhinogydd mountains of Snowdonia with some interesting cloud formations.

Flipping heck..... That was a mighty close strike and deafening bang!
I'm not too sure how good the car is as a Faraday cage? I'm the only car on this part of the beach!

Did anyone get any nice panoramas on the coastline, saw a few people had said they went to the cliffs and got a good view of it all developing.
Not really a panorama, but the calm before the N Wales storm this lunchtime. The dogs wanted to get out of the heat for a cooling swim before it bucketed down.

Looking at the latest radar, north Wales and across the irish sea to dublin and other parts of ireland is where all the action is at the moment..hopefully fresh storms will break out more widely later!
Can confirm some decent CG here and heavy downpours.

Managed to get back to the car before this beast hit shore as I was the tallest thing for miles around.

Looks like a possible nice formation over Snowdon this morning as seen from the webcam (Lodge Dinorwig).

According to spaceweather.com this year has been very poor so far....
Mystery of the Missing Noctilucent Clouds
This year, however, something mysterious happened. Instead of surging, the clouds vanished. During the first two weeks of June 2017, Spaceweather.com received ZERO images of NLCs — something that hasn’t happened in nearly 20 years.
There’s been a “heat wave” in the polar mesosphere, a region in Earth’s upper atmosphere where NLCs form. Relatively warm temperatures have wiped out the clouds.

For the last few days the North Wales sea fog has been drifting inland. It couldn't quite get over the Snowdon range today but eventually burnt off in the afternoon heat.
As temperatures droped this evening it's begun rolling back up the valley.

Stark contrast in temperatures today. 13 in Aberdaron and 25 in Betws-y-coed. Sea fog was the problem but it couldn't quite manage to roll in over the Snowdon range.

Set off from Snowdonia back to the Midlands earlier this morning in drizzle and thick hill fog. It cleared around Bala. Returned this afternoon to find sea fog rolling inland from the Llyn. Wide fluctuations in temperatures.

Things seem to be kicking off here just north of Ludlow, Shropshire
Yep storm to my south. Thunder and lightning. Looks to be between Bewdley and Bridgnorth.
-
Plenty of snow in NW Snowdonia already overnight on the hilltops.
-
Relentless rain Friday caused me problems with surface water off the hillside fields pouring through a retaining wall and up and over the back door. Not seen that happen before.
Fortunately it slowed and we managed to avoid major ingress and damage.

This snow will soon melt in this Spring heat.. currently 12°

Both Clee Hills were white over this morning at 8am

A gust this morning has torn the felt off my wood store and a tree was down on the A41.
Just as well I'm not up in North Wales today. Top 4 highest gusts are all from up there with Capel Curig at 79mph... scrub that Met Office now showing 94 mph!!

I can vouch for it blowing a hoolie here. Gusting to 40 mph. The wind chill is vicious.
