Main risk at the moment looks to be for South West / South Central areas, plenty of time for change yet though!

Well surprise surprise, tomorrows risk has already been transfered further south

This year has to be better than 2017 where we only had a measly 4 days with thunder heard, and not 1 organised storm at all!

Does anyone know of a good site to check for current wind direction and convergence? XCWeather is not bad but something more accurate would be great- 3,835 replies

These plume setups are notoriously difficult to model and forecast, a fact which was once again proven last night! Good to see plenty of people getting a storm fix last night anyway, especially anyone who chased big distances! Unfortunately for me, my choice of vehicle makes it rather expensive to chase anything thats not local- 3,835 replies

Has anyone else noticed how poor the Netweather lightning detector performs when storms are elevated, barely showing any activity compared to Blitzortung- 3,835 replies

I feel your frustration mate, certainly a better chance of seeing these big storms down South, it makes perfect sense though with the proximity to the continent. The problem i think with being in such a central location is that all the action is either way further south, too far east over the hotspot of South Lincs, or in recent years, way to far north! Our time will come eventually and when we do finally see a decent night time storm it will be worth the wait. Well any storm for that matter, night time or not! Anyway, can any of our resident chasers report in? where are you!?- 3,835 replies

So as usual, the question is how far north can these storms survive? Still plenty of lightning activity NE of Bristol http://en.blitzortung.org/live_lightning_maps.php?map=12 -

IMBY, could be sanwiched in a storm free zone, with activity to the NW and SE, my plan i think is to head up to some vantage point in the Peak District later this evening, hopefully something like July 1st 2015 unfolds -
