  1. I haven't discussed or studied weather in a while (I got bitten by the cycling bug), but now that ice has came along and stopped me, I want to know what's going on :lol:

    I've looked at the jet stream forecast, and it looks like starting tonight and tomorrow we will be under a ridge, what could this lead to? Will the ice go away? :)

    Sorry if my terminology or understanding isn't correct, I haven't studied weather in a while.

    Cheers,

  2. Today the forum has been acting funny... Like instead of being the way it normally is, underneath the first post it has links with "Other posts in this thread"

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Here's a screenshot to show what I mean.

    EDIT: NEVERMIND I FIXED IT :shok:

  3. Have to say it does look exceptionally impressive for your region though over the next week.....

    I've just checked the GFS charts, all the instability fades away as it gets to Newcastle :D

    I hate this crap city and this crap country, I'm moving to Australia or America as soon as I can :D

    Sorry if I offended anyone but I really hate where I live.

  4. So is there any chance for Newcastle getting a storm some time in the next 2 weeks?

    Also what's the difference between a thunderstorm and thundery showers?

    I really thought we would get a storm last week, we had like 600 capes, we must need more!

    I'm gonna convince everyone in newcastle to have BBQ's and leave their kettles on outside... maybe it will do something.

    Has anyone observed any of the conditions needed for storms in newcastle? Obviously 600 j/kg isn't enough, what CAPE+LI values are needed for us to get storms?

    Sorry about my badly organised post :lol:

  5. Where about in Newcastle are you? I witnessed a cracking storm yesterday (it wasn't overhead but there a was a brilliant display in the distance and this was enough to satisfy me! :D )

    EH!??!? I live in South Gosforth, that is like 1 mile away, how did that happen?!?!? I'm sure storms just avoid me on purpose!!!

    I used to live in High Heaton, on Holystone Crescent, where abouts in High Heaton are you?

    Oh, and here is proof that stuff avoids me:

  6. I've been waiting for a storm since around September last year, I really thought I would get one over the weekend, the 'Will it thunder?' page said like 56% for my area. And I was forecast 500-600j/kg of CAPE and -3 LI.

    But nothing, the clouds came in dark, but there was only light rain, nothing else interesting :unsure:

    Over the past 9 months I have had a few hail showers, but that is about it :p

    But since it is June, does that mean I'm garaunteed to get a storm? I'm in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne.

    I can't wait until I can leave this club :)
