    gutted! sky went dark to my north, got a slight shower and could smell that smell of conductive rain.....looks as though the land is forcing some further conduction ten mile north of me, hail core has reappeared!

    Latest Vis showing anvil has developed over the multicell!
  6. leightonw890
    That multicell is looking good, hope it sustains itself as it runs into the pockets of cape in oxford area! Nice hail developing also

    Poor Ian Furgusson, bombarded with all these questions. It is good to have another meteorologist in the forums though, it all help people like myself get a greater understanding of the complexity of weather, so welcome! Any chance you can get Derick from BBC Wales to join?

    Sat24 showing those cells literally exploding in the last 45mins or so. don't think they will manage to cross the channel still with their intensity, but you never know!
  9. leightonw890
    Maybe, but the front seams as if it's going to be quite slow moving, therefore giving your area time to heat up, and as the front approaches your area, it will cause significant updrafts. It's a waiting game but one i'm really looking forward to!

    That convection in west wales is actually visible from here. Looking at sat24, I am approx 40 miles directly east of the southern tip of the convection, would suggest mid level convection. Stratus and Altrostratus has steadily broken up here allowing this view over many miles. Note I am near the top of a valley and sit 390m asl

    Lovely pics there cloud 10!

    i agree with weather 09, the potential for some significant thunderstorms to develop due to the cold front moving east. It looks like it's going to be fairly slow moving thus giving the potential for some large hail, maybe golf ball size, especially over the Welsh mountains on the Moors in South East England

    No convection taking place in Gwent area, so am off to enjoy a can in the garden. Enjoy your evening people, and be lucky!!

    Afternoon all! Well what a beautiful day, apart from the cloud that has kept a lid on things with me all day, but, just as hope almost at an all time low, darkness to my south, moving north over me atm, but hay, looking promising for mid wales! Just looked at GFS, what happened to Thursday! Was showing Cape of 2100, now dropped to low hundreds.
  15. leightonw890
    Did you see any rotation with this cloud??
  16. leightonw890
    One has a +ve charge and the other a -ve charge. Often +CG are more damaging because they carry more amps and upto a billion volts and can appear red in colour, also are rare. Where -ve appear blue/white and are more common ( i think)! Please correct me if i am wrong

    Supercells, hmm. http://www.geologywales.co.uk/storms/1913.htm Have a look, was this a super cell developed from a deep depression? Appologies for going off subject! My bad
  18. leightonw890
    well, postcode np13 3nb, everything seams to be kicking off, but north of me by about 5-10 miles! Can hear faint rumbles, have camera at the ready folks, so hopefully have the chance to take some good pics-potential is great!
  19. leightonw890
    that area of intense rain and occasional lightining yesterday just north of the cardiif area was amazing! Ventured out and got stuck in traffic for 2 hours due to the A470 being closed-flash flooding was something I have never experienced before. Anyway, what are todays prospects??
  20. leightonw890
    Glad you got a storm today!
  21. leightonw890
    Blunt is best. I'm quite an amature but hopefully will get better educated as time goes by. Thankyou for clearing that up anyways :lol:
  22. leightonw890

  23. leightonw890

  24. leightonw890
