Storms and Convective discussion - May 2024
Newben76 replied to Eagle Eye's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I think we had more lightning in 2 short storms tonight than in the past 10 years. The thunder wasnt so loud though. In fact it was the hail on the roof and setting car alarms off which was louder. All over now. Good luck everyone else in with a chance. -

Storms and Convective discussion - September 2023
Newben76 replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Definitely the best storm we've had in many years last night. It's been such a bad year I'd totally given up. Every time you thought wow this is crazy it seemed to ramp up a level. Constant thunder and lightning for about 45 mins. Rainfall rates were very impressive. Finished with a couple of louder CG strikes. -

Incredible display now to my south west. Big forks. Someone is getting a right hammering. -

Nothing remotely thundery. Overcast all day, a few light showers. Worst year for storms on record here. But we have had a decent spell of hot weather so can't complain too much. -
More of a southerly breeze in the past hour and just clouded over here, 31 degrees on my weather station will probably be the max. Possible rogue downpour later?

Last night's storms were as pathetic as the summer weather this year. No disguising one of the worst summers in recent times for the South East. Little heat, limited sun,no storms etc. Is this negative? No just accurate.

Storms and Convective discussion - August 2023
Newben76 replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I love most if what the Met Office does, especially it's YouTube content. But...on the subject of weather warnings, I would love to know how many have been issued here in the South East for storms (or winds) over the past few years. I can say none of them for those reasons have actually been merited so far here. Literally can't think of an example. So when a weather event happens which does warrant a warning do you think people will take notice/action? I think the bar for warnings should be much higher and all these very low impact ones removed. -
That cloud is now taking over here too gradually from the south west, absolutely comedy.

Well we just had a minute of blue sky, must play the lottery today.

I follow the French weather channel (Chaine Meteo) and they have been predicting changeable weather up to around 8 August for the most of France with the exception of the South East part. Then high pressure moves in. Will be interesting to see if they are right. Generally speaking I've found them to be pretty accurate for the long term forecasting.

Luckily it's sunny and very warm/humid here to the south of London,. I was expecting clouds after last night's storm. Can see the clouds to the south but definitely looking positive for later.
