I am staying put, or at least local. Not a bad omen, it is just that I think Belper/Derby may do ok tonight and I have no idea which way to go if I did chase. I have flashbacks to 4th July 2015 whereby I went out chasing despite things looking good for Derbyshire. I saw the storm but only caught the tail end where Derby got hammered. I could have saved petrol and got a better show. Tonight looks similar.
Gloucester is definitely a good bet though, well into the best risks on all forecasts
I LIKE

We have had some rain this afternoon, Nothing much. Its VERY windy, but clear currently.

Was wondering whether or not I should buy a sim for my old iPhone and use that for radar and net, keeping the other free for video etc
Or use wireless sharing and just connect all your devices to the one phone....

Slightly disappointing as always with this weather.
All models showed it push further north. Now i barely gets to us.
Same as in the summer with storms.
Grr.
Lets hope the ECM pulls something out of its pants shortly.
-
Gotta love the far FI. (And i mean FAR FAR!!!)
Still. Looks like there is cold en route.
More of a westerly shift of any of this and we could be in for a good run of cold with plenty of snow showers. Especially when pushing from the NW WOOP

i live in rugby and got a text from the lovely lady saying she got thunder as i was at work.i was a at work at the royal mail site Royal Mail Distribution Facility at Danes Way, Daventry International Freight Terminal, Northamptonshire.19:35 I had text her and said i not surprised as it chucking it down here by 19:45 the sound of the raid on the metal/perspex roof waas incredible it was like listening to white noise at full volume.people where looking at each other laughing,myself included as you couldn't hear yourself speak due to the intensity of the the rain.by that time it was thunder and lightning every couple of mins or so with what seem to increase in frequency.people out on the ramp filming the rain.20:00 the rain had stopped.soy i decided to go to the carpark for a vape and oh wow was i in for a treat.The rain wall had passed and what seem to be the battery of the storm was giving a wonderful display of vivid white lightning straight in front of me.Just to the right the clearly defined CB.beautiful cloud to cloud jagged bolts zig zagging across with the sun right behind me as the cloud clearing the sun.That was probably the most photogenic storm i've seen in daylight hours.I was in awe of such wonderful display of lightning and cloud definition but sadded couldn't get any pictures of such beauty. I Wasn't expecting Anything as nothing forecast but what a pleasant surprise.

Just a heads up with regards to the breakdown of the heat Tuesday PM into Wednesday this week, ARPEGE has been leading the way with regards to other models, namely 00z ECM and UKMO and finally 06z GFS, joining it in indicating instability developing/moving NE up across SE England and East Anglia Tuesday PM/Night to warrant potential for thunderstorms to develop here before the cooler air behind the cold front moving in from the west sweeps through.
00z EC precipitation for 00z Weds
00z UKMO for 00z Weds
06z ARPEGE for 00z Weds
Still time for this to be shunted further east in the end though ...
Booo Hisss
Every year we beg for the heat to get the storms and for the most part, its been pretty bland.
East seem to be doing well.
Some very nice storms the last month or so. No so much for the west.I wonder if this weather pattern will hold into the winter? I mean, these kind of setups could bring us some very nice winter wonder. If it carried on as long as it has this summer, Maybe the country would be in a little bit of trouble. Lets hope it doesnt last too long aye?
I do feel more acclimatised to the weather now.. Not sure about others? This heat was painful at the start but now its not so bad. Blood thinning? (is that a thing?)
Anyway, just some random thoughts in a fairly dry spell weather wise.

Well, We have had the heat. Not storms though.
Been a fairly quiet summer round here.
Going down south coat next Friday and the forecast was 6 hours of torrential thunderstorms up till about midnight last night where they vanished.
Not a single drop of rain now lol.
Gone from 30+mm to zero.
Weather at the moment is crazy. West doesn't get a look in.
