So going to be landing in Luton in just over an hour - I guess there’s a line of storms heading through there at the moment. How’s it looking for around 2030L?
-
So I’m flying into LTN this evening around 2030 - how’s it looking? From here it’s looking pretty turbulent to say the least!
-
Ok, theoretical scenario here and a pretty loose question - what is the absolute maximum for the UK. I.e with a realistic synoptic, could somewhere in the UK in theory get over 40c and beyond? Or is that totally out of the question.

38C didn't happen in recorded history up until 2003, but it happened. Sypnotics fell into place so who says they wont fall into place this time? We're close enough.
There are 37-39s showing up in Benelux - why couldn’t those same temperatures feed through to the UK - similar latitudes? Heck remember this extraordinary heatwave is heading up to the arctic circle.

Seems like were on the cusp of something

So the radar showing nothing east of Milton Keynes.
All done for the London area, above and east?

It look's like it is dissipating on the 22:10 radar update.
Affirm. I can see it from about 30 miles away. The lightning has definitely “slowed”.
-
Those cells just around the northern sector of the M25 should require close attention. Really pepped up in the last 30 mins.
-
Looks like we’re on the cusp of something here in N Beds. Lots of towers suddenly popping up in the last hour.
-
According to the BBC, there have now been 50,000 lightning strikes.

Flights still landing at LTN. Jeez I travel all of the time, but I wouldn’t want to be in that right now!
-
Just driven back on the M1, not much thunder but plenty of lightning.
-
...its definitely snow here. Intensity really picked up now.
-
Just to prove how quickly the system is intensifying, do a time lapse of the last hour over the SE of England.
Wow.

Definite yellow and red echoes showing up on the radar.

Is Herts the only county missing out? Got a cm at best! Light snow at the moment but to light to settle properly
Bedfordshire, which is quite unusual because of the higher terrain.

Hi all.
Anyone got an update for Friday? Heading up to Heathrow for a flight to Amsterdam early Saturday. Looking a bit touch and go?
Thanks
I wouldn’t want to touch and go in those conditions!

Apologies if I get this totally wrong - potential of freezing rain turning into an ice storm on Thursday?
-
I hesitate to be took IMBYistic, but how's it looking for the Bedfordshire area this week? I'm headed to a funeral on Friday unfortunately.

Dare I look ahead to Thursday... looks like some real humdinger severe t-storms potentially breaking out with a fair amount of wind shear.
