Going really well isn't it. Not a single lightning strike detected in the UK yet. Whoa,. This place is fast turning into Florida...
These "free for all" convective situations are rubbish here, CAPE doesn't guarantee thunderstorms either BTW, at least here the dewpoint and humidity seems really low, and also there needs to be some kind of defined lifting mechanism it seems to get a thunderstorm here. Otherwise they all develop in the usual favoured places like the cheshire plain, manchester, and the midlands.
