     This is why I wish we had regional convective threads. Reading all this is really difficult to bear. 

    Some of the regional threads are very inactive through most of the season and I think if you make extra regional specific threads on just convection it'd only make that worse, best to stick to the this thread for insight and then post in here and your regional when you get some action, that may help activity in your specific regional thread, although I agree it can be frustrating coming into a big thread where someone has a huge storm when there's nothing at all at your location.

    i'm calling it a night and going to bed, not worth staying up for

    I wouldn't call it quits so early, last time I did that I slept through a pretty decent event.

    Nothing is forecast for our area until much later, and what was forecast for the SW/central southern areas earlier is a lot more widespread than anticipated, this bodes well for our chances later

    My neck of the woods 2018 has been a memorable year for weather so far recent few years nothing really stands out. What we need now is prolonged warm summer although I’m doubtful, MCS not grazing the far SE when was the last time we were all hit!

    A terrific gale by bonfire night & snow by Christmas. Dear Santa, ahem..  

     

    Last time I was hit with a MCS was I think July 19rd 2017? Not subscribed right now so can't see the radar archives but that was brilliant, did you get much from it? It was an absolute corker here, constant rumbles and about 90 flashes per minute for 2 hours between 2 & 4 am :D Stayed up for the whole thing, luckily had a covered balcony haha

    Is there any reason to be interested in the lightning risk tonight?

    I don't think so, it's been downgraded from what little potential there was shown in the forecast last night, now it looks like the possible small event kent clipper shown last night will now only hit norfolk, and that's if they're lucky.

    UPDATE 10:31 UTC SLGT reduced in size given decreasing risk of lightning tonight - primarily focussed on Norfolk, but perhaps even staying offshore to the NE of Norfolk

    Not something worth staying up for in my opinion, unless lightningmaps suddenly kicks into life with what little risk there is, estofex doesn't even show a whiff of interest for the UK
