HUGE CELLS TO SOUTH OF SOUTH BUCKS: Berkshire - South West London area some ENORMOUS cells to the south here one with an anvil forming it looks a whopper another just towering miles.

There have to be some storms around me in the next few hours there is just so much convection taking place right now.

Tell me about it but nothing is happening

Tommy yes that is the same one West of here I referred to just a short moment ago. Its huge, great sight.

Huge Cumulonimbus going up to my west, over Luton/Hemel way! Looks like it's going to burst any moment. Also a decent looking dark cloud to my south, over London way. Overhead appears to be an anvil although I can't see from here!

EDIT: I could swear it looks like it's raining over to the east too, is the radar slightly offset today? :doh:

Winds picking up here now and swirling about in all directions, clouds at different heights all moving in oposite directions. Somethings definately going on. Im wondering if the comments earlier about a surface low developing over kent are true. Unusual for such a large area to suddenly see such explosive convection. Somethings triggered it no doubt.

Latest MET radars out, cells exploding into life over the whole midlands and SE.

It seems like a convergence zone has set up on the southern Greater London border, can anyone confirm this?

second rumble of distant thunder - If you look at the difference between the 1600 and 1630 met office radar it is evident that something has definitely happened.

Just taken the views in all directions around the Medway towns - didn't see or hear anything, but towers are shooting up in all directions. GFS reckons the best is yet to come (assuming temps hold out) so maybe try again later .... :doh:

Clear skies over Winchester apart from a great view of an anvilhead to the north, must be the cell over Reading looking at the radar

Wow, what a day! The structue is amazing here. Fresh towers shooting (and I mean that most literally) up to my west. Old cell losing power to my east.

Oh and I've just made a margerita slush puppy with my ice cream maker and lit the BBQ.

Great days!

I really want to go on a chase today, but there doesn't seem to be anything going on around here! I should've known it would all go wrong when we were included in the weather warning lol! On the plus side its muggy and the sun is out, and the clouds I can actually see through the haze look to be bubbling nicely!

Very large raindrops here. I can here that cell rumbling nicely over you Jshaw, it sounds fairly active. I can see a well defined inflow belt which shows a strong updraft.

Haven't had the chance to see any thing out the window yet but will look out in a few moments......

I'm guessing there is development around this area then?
