Shower just started here in Flint. Not unexpected, quite a bit of convection going on the past few hours.

[Neilsouth]

Large cumulus clouds going up here , to the south east!!!!!

[❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️]

Should i be bothered that the met office warning no longer covers the south west, or is that a good sign?

And here! Heavy rain, but only 1 rumble heard. Looks like they're getting it good just south/southwest of the city centre especially

[Geordiesnow]

I thought i heard a rumble but i did not take much notice of it but it looked like my ears was not playing up.

Steady rain atm, slightly darker to the west as it has been for a while now, i watched the cell gaining strength but no thunder/lightning to be seen.

There's a developing CB to the East of Flint at the moment. It gave a light shower here, but it looks to be building fast and my guess is anywhere Manchester to Mid-Cheshire could get something from this. Keep an eye on it; it's looking promising.

Skies are not all that thundery it has to be said, i would say its just like a typical skyline when its raining by a weatherfront than anything conective. Rain at the moment is moderate-heavy.

Latest GFS Still not budging on the Downgrade for the Cape Usually starts downgrading by now.

A few Charts from the 12z

- 6pm Some Great Cape Values

- 9pm shows that the GFS Also thinks the Cape will be ample to keep the Storms going

- Storm Risk at 70%

Just for fun this is what will probably happen to Essex
