Storms and Convective discussion - June 2024

[Rush2019]

Looking at ESSL, there's a slight risk early morning to NE areas then moving south through the UK to affect more regions, worth a watch.      https://www.stormforecast.eu/

 Rush2019 Looks promising for Lincolnshire maybe

Morning all.

Well that was a pleasant alarm clock… It was the sound of torrential rain that woke me up… So I can confirm the lightning, and distant thunder as well!

[Dangerous55019]

Just had the hail core of that storm pass overhead.

Sorry but there will be no forecast maps for the foreseeable, due to injury circumstances. I will keep updating for the bigger storm chances.

[Southern Storm]

 Eagle Eye No worries eagle, there doesn't appear to be anything in the reliable anyway.  hope you're ok, and make a quick recovery.

[Robert1981]

Been some lightning about today around the North Sea and now around Cambridge. 

[CoventryWeather]

Torrential downpour here just now. Radar doesn't show much but seemed to develop fairly rapidly. 

[Thunderspotter]

 Eagle Eye hope you feel/get better soon!

[Harry's House]

 Eagle Eye Hope your injury is not too serious and you make a speedy recovery.

[Windblade]

 Eagle Eye I hope you're ok mate. Whatever your injury, wishing you a speedy recovery. 

 Robert1981 Funnily enough, after I said that we got a load of moderate rain last night! Maybe I should moan more often? 

[Rush2019]

Messy convective skies, all moved south of Macc.  

[TJS1998Tom]

Should  say ill rather than like a broken bone though one person I work with for the forecasts is fully injured but when I get colds and flus with my asthma I have no energy usually for a week or two. 

Can see a few bits of bubbly cumulus from here but not much to be excited about.

Some lightning north of Carlisle in the blob moving south 

[Windblade]

 Eagle Eye I'm just recovering from a nasty bout of the flu which lasted two weeks. I've never been so ill for so long before - it really hit me hard. You will get better but give it time and don't push yourself too hard before you are ready. Get well soon mate.

Thanks, seems to be something going around. Glad you're better now. Seems to be a lot more forming now. A big shower closing in on me, weak on radar but can see the whole rain shaft. 

[A Face like Thunder]

 Scuba steve yes, some thundery showers showing up in the NW according to the recent BBC forecast. Tending to be in the North of the Region and coastal areas and we have been dry all day here in the South of the Region.

[Robert1981]

Nice downdraft to this sharp shower at Bedford at 19.00pm. 

[Metwatch]

Several showers moving through, with a few hail pellets earlier otherwise have stayed mostly dry this afternoon.

A product from the very cool airmass combined with peak solar heating at this time of year as we approach the solstice rather than any decent levels of instability compared with this time last year.

Surprise little cell popped up north of here, quite small but a nice surprise.
