Aha

So in that case I am tripling my Tornado count to 72 from 24 then if all "Rain Shafts" count as Tornadoes.

At the time this was perceived to be a Tornado the cloud was Stratiform, there was no Convection within 50 Miles just dynamic Rainfall.

Tell you what just for fun later on will post some Rainshaft pictures and other Tornado Wanabee pictures and see if you can make out the real mccoys and the Imposters.

In fact I will start a thread on this later as this Topic is pretty interesting.

This could be fun :D:nea:

The rainfall has notably beefed up across S England atm! Looks like the Midlands in the next hour or two could get a pasting!! Will be interesting to see if the little clump of rain over the channel does the same thing as it runs up over the SE...here's hoping :D

Enough? The most rain the SE has had today was some very light drizzle this morning (which lasted until 8am and didn't even make the pavement wet). The sun is out as I type lol!

We have been lucky and only had rain over night recently so yes some more rain would be good for the garden.

17mm so far today, which is the wettest day so far this month. Constant light/moderate rain with occasional heavy bursts.

And my goodness, Wiltshire must be getting a pasting at the moment!

:D We're hanging onto some desperate storm-straws down here as this has been a very benign day in the South East, with increasingly less likelihood of a TStorm.

All most have to look forward to is two episodes of Emmerdale tomorrow :nea:

This is what is incoming for southern areas at the moment, bearing in mind some of which will intensify/weaken

Same here! If the clump coming across the channel now intensifies like the rain preceding it, this could be a fun evening! Even now despite quite a bit of cloud, still some blue skies and sunny spells around, which means added warmth, which means perhaps some added convective potential! CAPE in fact is quite reasonable over NW France about now, so I would expect some of the rain around there at the moment to intensify in the next hour...fingers crossed!

yeah it looks to be all moving away to the east. The heavy rain here is slowly easing off and moving towards the east coast.

No doubt that the gap in the rain will be heading my way, thats what normally happens with frontal systems. I'm going to guess Essex may be one of the driest places along with some of the other parts of East Anglia in the entire country this month, rainfall hasn't been far off average amazingly enough, depsite the huge falls in other places.

Still we shall see, front does look fairly strong still and pushing eastwards at a decent clip as the low pressure develops.

Also has to be noted the front does seem to be decaying at the moment.

Nothing much happening here yet - have our chances gone up or down?

very boring cold and miserable day here. looks like that is our lot, as the rain west of birmingham pushes away, with a grand total of 14mm.

Very poor Meto forecast, the ppn was meant to move in to NW England, that didn't happen, there were meto warning for the majority of N.England even though only Yorkshire and Some parts of NE England saw rain, and no where in these locations that have seen rain have seen anywhere near the huge totals predicted, the beeb predicted rain from 12am-11pm so far the rain has cleared (6pm), and i wouldnt bet on these gusty winds of 40-50mph either.

moderate convective rain here (there is a difference between bog-standard rain and thunderstorm rain and this is of the thunderstorm variety) :help:
