  1. Dude.. Not sure where your looking... But we about to get something major.. Looking to my south now, Its a flash every second. Going offline now.. Gonna get real here soon.. very soon .. Gonna go move the car,...
  2. Storm to the south is doing the best part of 1 strike every 2 seconds. The sky to my south is just while flashes now.
  3. Looks like SE is about to be "pounded" again.. Central South getting hit now and building like something out of hell. South west gonna be hit in the next few hours I think.
  4. Wow... intense! next 48 hours are gonna be great for some people! so much potential coming from the south! it is... it just seems to be 5 mins out at the moment. exploding all over the south now
  5. Just noticed the rate of convection and strikes.. Checked Estofex for an update as clearly a mesoscale discussion needs to be announced. and shock horror.... There is: http://www.estofex.org/cgi-bin/polygon/showforecast.cgi?map=yes&fcstfile=2014071820_201407181712_-_mesoscalediscussion.xml Proper gonna explode now!
  6. Dont be fooled by the direction of the storms. The whole system itself is pushing north. So while "these" ones may not do anything for us.. Its what builds behind.
  7. Epic wow! The speed at the increase of intensity. Its exploded... Gone from a few strikes to 700+ in 20 mins. eDIT: 1000+
  8. Estofex are normally spot on with their forecasts. This give me hope of some massive imports..
  9. Wow, Looking at the Sat24 today, Looks like zero chance for sunshine around here today. I hope something pops up later down south. Last nights storm was something else. Flashes every 5 to 6 seconds. Constant rumbling. 1 in 10 was CG strikes however most was IC.
  10. Blitzortungs live detector *( http://www.blitzortung.org/Webpages/index.php?lang=en&page_0=12 ) Is certainly showing a wider area now. Not sure how accurate the ones on the "map" are.. One has been discounted as a false detection..
  11. Storms to the south seem to be picking up a bit now. One cell showing a lot more strikes per minute now. Cant wait to see a good storm! Havent had much of a chance to get out and about this year.
  12. Must of vanished on latest runs maybe We need another nice warm, moist plume.
  13. IMHO, Nothing more than a few scattered showers with the odd bit of prolonged light to moderate rain at times. Looks quite, quite boring tbh for a few days at least... Possibly something for the midlands on Friday.
  14. Well, Torro now have a nice warning out.. http://www.torro.org.uk/site/forecast.php TORRO CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION 2014/001 A TORRO CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION has been issued at 2030GMT on Friday 6th June 2014 Valid from/until: 2030GMT – 1200GMT on Friday 6th June/Saturday 7th 2014 for the following regions of the United Kingdom & Eire: England Wales S Scotland Channel Is THREATS Hail to 15-20mm diameter; wind gusts to 45-50mph; CG lightning SYNOPSIS Large upper low to the west of the UK has promoted a northward flux of moisture across western Europe, and this plume is moving into S England now. EML, originating from Spain, and per the 12Z soundings from Brest and Bordeaux, is atop the moist plume. Thunderstorms, likely rooted atop this level /at around 600 hPa/ have developed across SW England. This is in association with a lead trough promoting lift, and probably divergent flow aloft. Overnight, such conditions will overspread more of England and Wales, and sporadic thunderstorms will likely develop or move north from France. Such storms will be elevated above a cooler boundary layer, and will probably be rooted close to 600 hPa, although some storms may root lower (although still above the boundary layer) as moister air moves in. Cloud-layer shear will be sufficient /30-35 knots/ for rotating updraughts from time to time, which bring an isolated risk of marginally severe hail, although forecasting such hail can be tricky, and so it's not out of the question that isolated incidences of larger hail may be noted. The elevated nature means severe winds seem unlikely but a few reports are possible. Lightning may be frequent, although mainly cloud to cloud, given the elevated nature. Any CGs will likely be powerful, given high cloud bases. During Saturday morning, activity may become more widespread, although still mainly elevated, as it moves northwards into N England/S Scotland. However, there is the chance that storms may become rooted in the boundary across E Anglia, N Midlands, N England and S Scotland, before the moist plume moves away. Any such storms may become organised and produce severe weather, but this will be dependant on the morphology overnight. This will be covered in a new forecast, if appropriate. In addition, post-frontal convection across Eire/N Ireland tomorrow afternoon will be subject to strong vertical wind shear, and could produce severe weather. Forecaster: RPK
  15. Ha, Yeah.I'm fairly sure that is the normal story. Every year on here, the ramping gets out of control and suddenly everyone's let down when it splits and does nowt That of course, wont happen tonight.. Will it..... WILL IT!
  16. That High pressure to the south and east is really playing havoc with the fronts and low.. Some very intense lifting! Ohhhhh Things may get pretty damn interesting tonight and the next day or so....
