Currently 19°C, very hazy and hot today here came from a max of 21°C in Conwy to a max of 26°C here in Wirral so quite a good day. TCu development over the Cheshire plain
Ok its the 16th but very strange tropical occlusion were having here - the atmospheric temperature is quite high making the air unstable producing massive drops of rain (tropical-like)
The strangest thing happened here. We got a Nimbus cloud (which is unusual on thier own) A cumulonimbus cloud preceded this. The nimbus cloud is so rare because it takes the form of cumulonimbus and nimbostratus together and this causes a very unusual tropical/polar air mixing! not only that but it gives great instability and heavy rain. If youre wondering why im saying this its because we got one giving heavy rain quite something
Brilliant. Weve just had the heaviest rain i have ver seen in my life it was a cloudburst from a jet black sky with thunder also the temperatures rose 2C in the shower. (tropical downpour if you ask me)
4 hefty showers one after the other, 2 containing very heavy hail - already better than yesterday, though no thunder forecast today for the majority of the UK.
