Just had a little storm pass over, raining so hard you couldn't see out the window, distant rumbles turning into peeling thunder, some quite bright flashes that my oh said he saw over the back of our house, seems to be brightening up again no....heart rate returning to normal *touches wood*
-
Actually gutted...took kids to legoland august bank holiday last year and it rained the entire day and we're off to Chessington for 2 days on Thursday and the forecast is rain all day Friday! Ahhhh
-
Absolutely nothing to report here. Sky looks crap!

It's gunna be like the apocalypse here tonight, I base that on the scientific analysis of the forecasters dodging my location and everyone in the West getting excited and gagging for a monster storm and I'm sitting here begging the Lord to let it dodge me. That means it's coming for me on the South East coast, probably at 9pm when I have to walk home from work, and with my luck, u guys can take that as gospel haha!

I'll rent you my loft conversion with velux windows for the night if you like, clear views over the downs where the storms kick off once they've been swept in off the sea, a view wasted on me, I'm pretified. Might sedate myself tomorrow!!

MCS Initiation, now if that can be in a favourable position eg stretch across to the Brest Peninsula then expect a North moving MCS To affect us overnight Friday into Saturday morning, I am pretty sure when Estofex update tonight the Day 1 for Friday will include a Level 1 over the Uk for said MCS Moving North at the end of that forecast period (eg tomorrow evening)
You know the big storm we had that Friday Night last July? Can you remember what level if any http://www.estofex.org/ issued then for us?
Just had a look on the archives we were under a level 2

It is raining. It is wet.
It's blobbing
Im in my garden and o can't feel rain! Weird
-
Oh that is a shame!
I'm near durrington
Oh cool I'm near town, what weather station do you use? Shoreham weather station is saying 21.3

Something is brewin' in the channel. This is looking south.
image.jpgWith a sea breeze is feels quite pleasant, don't know what the temp is because my local station is broken.Looks like its broken up on the radar! I'm glad it's clouded over I can feel my house cooling down, where in worthing are u?
-
Anyone on the South coast East of the IOW? How are the skys looking over you and in the Channel?
Clouding over quite a bit, I'm indoors though so can't see towards the sea

The warmest night here for a long time, probably since July 2006 in fact, with a low of 21.7C, already 24.8C outside, feels truly Mediterranean out there.
My poor man is working on a roof in amering today! Feel really sorry for him!
-
Clouding over her now

I wonder this too. If so, I'd rather it just go bang in one go than have more mediocre storms.
It feels like its getting hotter in this house.
I only say it coz usually when this happens every moans about the 'crud' leftover means there's less surface heating to trigger the storms!
This humidity though! I hate storms but of its gunna clear the air then go for it! Ugh, dreading tomorrow
-
At the risk of seeming dumb, will the fact that there are storms breaking out in areas which were supposed to have a clear night inhibit any storms/extreme weather that has been forecast for the rest of the week? Or is it irrelevant in these plumes?
-
The Beeb is usually well off the mark for us
I thought the weekend was looking good (bad for you) but there's a lot of hours between then and now and we will end up with a heavy shower
Thanks for the efforts of reassurance but until it's Xmas and we're all moaning about the lack of snow, I will be prepared for it to thunder and any given time! I'm off to hide!
-
Chill
Seems to have died down now and it's heading away from us anyway.
That's our action for the year been and gone
Hhmmm, are you sure?
And I certainly don't think that's it for the year haha!
The BBC forecast I just watched has us waking up to storms on Thursday!
-
I'm off to skeggy tomorrow hope the weather plays ball ie ; no storms i mean and hopefully none for the journey there and back as well
so pleased i'm not going to blackpool
Im praying for no storms too!
Currently trying to hold in a panic attack after tomp456s post...waaaahhhh!

Hi, see below:The heat index (HI) or humiture or humidex (not to be confused with the Canadian humidex) is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity in an attempt to determine the human-perceived equivalent temperature—how hot it feels. The result is also known as the "felt air temperature" or "apparent temperature". For example, when the temperature is 32 °C (90 °F) with very high humidity, the heat index can be about 41 °C (106 °F)
It is becoming increasingly more humid as more hot air is being pumped northwards with a lot of moisture from continent good for storms! This will worsen through week. Before turning much fresher Sunday.
Thanks for clearing that up! I've decided I'm not leaving the house, apart from to work for the rest of the week, hate humid heat and hate storms!
-
My local weather station is saying the current temp is 18.9 degrees but I could swear its about 25!
Also could someone tell me what the heat index is? Coz it says it's 22.6, is it like the 'feels like' temp?

What are we looking at in terms of night time temperatures? I cant stand hot weather and am worrying how my toddlers going to cope too, off to buy lots of ice pops I think!
-
Yes I saw they ate further West Wednesday into Thursday with more widespread potential Friday, so maybe I throw up Wednesday night meaning I have to be clear 48h hours before my return!
Not looking forward to the heat either, really enjoyed the weather this week it's been lovely but I think 27 degrees is my limit. Hot nights as well urgh! G

Hi ThunderBuddy! Have you managed to avoid storms so far this summer? I have had two short lived ones and that has been it. Might be hard to dodge them next week with all that heat around. Quite breezy tonight, still warm though, 15.2c
Yes I have been lucky so far! The most I've had is a couple of heavy hail showered this year! Yes I'm dreading next week, as I now work evenings too, so I think I am going to haven't pull a sickie!
Have woken up to blue sky's and it's hot already!
-
Safe to say I'm bricking it for next week!
