Think tomorrow afternoon/evening will be interesting, very active cold front moves through with frequent heavy showers/thunderstorms after moving through fairly quickly, will be interesting to see what occurs.

A quiet week upcoming, but signs that GFS wants to develop something late on Tuesday towards the SW of Wales and England, moving E into the mainland overnight.
Ooo, yes! Come on!

Heading straight to the Isle of Wight again!!!!!.
No.

Convection starting to structure here, heavy showers just crossing to the north.
-
Nothing seems to be developing here? Confused...
-
Back home now and drove through some showers on the way back, some nice convection around but still yet to have downpours?!
-
Doesn't look particularly special to say it turned out to be one of the best convective days in recent history!
-
Lightning just detected near Bridgwater!

Some lovely cells have developed around home, surprised they haven't electrified!

Looks like we're out of the zone today. Tomorrow late afternoon/evening is looking slightly better according to netweathers local storm forecast so will keep an eye on that. Good luck to everyone else for today.
Think we all need good luck for another reason...
-
Give me all the evidence you can find on that! Anyway, back on topic...

No, but I think over the years, somewhere like Lincolnshire has had more storms in a one year period than Devon probably has had in 5, maybe more. You are never going to get the ingredients for supercell storms or thrilling surface based activity being surrounded by waters at 15 degrees. Just a simple fact!
I don't really care? As I said in my post which you quoted, my place of residence is not determined by the weather!

The southwest compared to the east William is merely a slash in the wind bud. If you had a choice to live in an area purely on the decision of convective activity, would you really choose Cornwall or Devon over the likes of Kent or Lincolnshire?
Devon, because my place of living isn't decided by the weather?

it is quite in the English channel on real lighting maps so it looks another miss for the south and west getting a thunderstorms this summer as the south east of England always get them
Ouch, this is very IMBY! Obviously, you haven't remember what's happened in the SW recently...
-
Can't see much happening across the SE now unless something picks up...
-
Lots of Altocumulus Castellanus cloud here in Carbis Bay!

Looks like the SE got hit nicely last night, still no where near as bad as forecast and certainly no MCS as thought but still it looks like quite a few got some decent action, good luck for later!

Really interesting map, makes me wonder if there is a comparison out there with data for 1997 - 2016
Hehe, wouldn't be surprised if there's not enough data to be worth presenting!

This is interesting: the track taken by MCSs in the UK between 1981 and 1997.

Would've loved number 8, maybe we'll get another one one day!

wish the SW could get something still the rest of summer to go yet.
Hmm, were you available to watch the radar on Thursday? We had a brilliant thunderstorm!

and this one's just for you William.....cells developing in your neighbourhood...............but wait! you're in Cornwall....doh!
Don't ya dare! XD Just watching that live stream with the London Eye in view, amazing blue flashes!
-
Can see some cells have developed over Dorset, will the SW join the action? Seems like people further west than the highest risk area have actually been hit the worst so far!
-
Let's enjoy this stream!

Happy that we've managed to break the "import drought".
-
At least someone understood, what people need to stop doing is taking everything so literally, I did not mean the whole event was a "Kent Clipper", I was simply saying that thunderstorms had clipped Kent, and I'm not wrong in saying that!

Good job, Evening thunder. Nice joint decision by us.
