Storms and Convective discussion - July 2023
daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Some of the heftiest convertive raindrops I've ever seen in London, W12 -
Model Output Discussion - 15th March onwards
daveinSB replied to Cambrian's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
There might be an uptick in storm activity when colder upper air moves over anomalously warm seas -
I remember this one! I was living in Twickenham at the time, which is obviously not too far away. It was the first time in all my years working in education that we were allowed to remove our ties and un-do our top buttons. Such heat seems trivial now, but it was near the start of the recent high maxima that have become the norm every summer.

Storms and Convective discussion - June 2023
daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
UHI effect probably helped given the direction of the wind. It would be nice for the whole of Greater London to get in on some action for sure -
Storms and Convective discussion - June 2023
daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I got a good one in Mill Hill earlier (the one that exploded NW of London) and then I was tracking the one you mention on the way back to Shepherds Bush via Willesden, but JUST missed the core. I saw some very cool lightning however. -
Storms and Convective discussion - June 2023
daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
The wind and rain was epic here in Hendon/Mill Hill, sideways sheets of rain, trees horizontal from the wind. Decent amount of lightning, and it really exploded as it was going overhead. A couple of cells now forming SE of London - Round 2? Edit - Yep, it has now electrified, looks like it will hit slightly further south depending on development -
Model Output Discussion - 15th March onwards
daveinSB replied to Cambrian's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
We have 3 more months of opportunities to hit 24c+ - indeed, it looks like we'll be there in a few days - heading towards astronomical summer - with the pattern looking to set up as warm/very warm, humid and stormy as we go on. I rarely comment on this thread, but I think quite a lot of people in here would be much, much happier following astronomical seasons rather than meteorological ones. -

Hefty crack of thunder in Hendon/Mill Hill. Nothing too obvious on the radar interestingly -

daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Looks like things are getting going to the west of London, a few sferics and some potent little cells. Plenty of surface heating in between shower, so it'll be interesting to see how things develop -

Lovely downpour just now in Shepherds Bush, no thunder, but a lot of rain and its cooled right down -
As long as the summer is hot and sunny, I couldn't give a flying fig about the weather now! We're only just in mid-April, are people expecting mid 20s and loads of sunshine? Honest question!

Storms and Convective discussion - 20th March 2023 onwards
daveinSB replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Couple of passing showers in Acton and Shepherds Bush have given some decently gusty winds, maybe 35-40mph. It's very bright here, hoping that the insolation can help with some potent cells. It feels like anything moderately convective could drag some serious winds down -

Now that conditions have turned right for snow, can that yellow/green blob of precip over London stall and intensify? Pretty please? -

Light/moderate proper snow finally in W12 - says a lot about this winter that I’m excited -

Maybe I should jump on the 607! -
South East and East Anglia Weather Discussion Sept 2019 onwards
daveinSB replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
Make that 50/50 - just need the colder air to dig further south and that heavier blob to the NW to come here to increase evaporative cooling! Edit: Mostly snow now, but stopping ? -

Probably 70/30 rain/snow here in Shepherds Bush now, fear that’s the best we may get! -
South East and East Anglia Weather Discussion Sept 2019 onwards
daveinSB replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
More snowflakes and less rain now - milder air moving away south judging by the increased reports of wintry stuff further south? Or something else at play? -

Good lord, we have sleet in Shepherds Bush! -

Southeast and East Anglia weather discussion
daveinSB replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
Glad someone's with me - although there seems to be enough scope for them to build NNW, the overall movement seems NNE - and while I enjoyed a wonderful light-show in the early hours of Wednesday (plus the little bonus cell earlier), I would quite like a prolonged system to move overhead. Fingers crossed I guess! -
Southeast and East Anglia weather discussion
daveinSB replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
So, we got a short but sweet cell over central(ish) London about 45 minutes ago (W12) - and now I'm wondering whether the western-most extent of the main body of storms will at least still glance us? All seems a bit too far east, although I may be being rather paranoid -
