Convective Outlook

[johnholmes]

its just about on here-winds dropped out v light NNW, bar stopped falling, slight rain only, main echoes are to north and NW of here, no change yet in temp or dewpoint which have both risen over past couple of hours

[Sugar79]

Meto radar = wow :ph34r:

[sunny scunny]

Max gust now 48mph, and the rain is struggling to get east of the pennines around north lincs.

Surprisingly dry here at presant.

[jimben]

Maximum gust of 47mph at 23:32 and temp 12.0c looking as if will be 1 - 2 hours before squall line gets here

[johnholmes]

nope, part missed to north and another part to south as the radar for this area shows

can't stand the suspense-off to bed

I understand that the Met Office have warnings in place for already flood stricken or flood prone areas, but I would have expected a 'be aware' warning for this weather on the doorstep. When you consider they had 'be prepared' warnings out for inland areas for the earlier November storm, where wind gusts didn't exceed 50 mph, its difficult to reason with the logic. Perhaps the extreme flooding in Cumbria and the Borders has lead to a reassesment, or that once gales and heavy rain become the 'norm' into the season, they don't warrent such warnings.

I agree, the last storm had much more media attwntion, ive only just found out about this as a flash warning now. 10-15% chance of TORNADOS seems worthy of at least proper acknowledgment.

To be far this hasnt got the same high winds for me as the last yet though.

This seems 2 be a year of breaking records..

I'm staying up for now! Snuggled in bed with laptop lol. But don't think I can stay awake to 6am lol! Maybe it will speed up. Ha!

bit unlucky there mate :ph34r:

[Muffelchen]

Rain gas just started and the wind is getting up. Beverley appears to be on the N end of a bowing section of the line as it approaches.

Need to go to bed really.......

[A.J]

Alas.....this squall line reminded me of a time years ago, a tale of 'The Woman that got away'

She approached me from the west, slowly, then paused, just out of reach but tantilisingly close, then just when I Thought it was going to be a night to remember, she marched forward, hit me right between the eyes, and sodded off!

:ph34r:

:lol:

[dogs32]

I know the feeling AJ...

To me it seem's to have really slowed down moving east.

Im in the cf but it isnt moving much with a lovely white line of precip to my West..

[chrisb1357]

Not posted on NW for a while.

Located near Alfreton in Derbyshire and been very windy for last hour and heavy rain but now its all stopped. No wind or rain.

Is this calm before the storm or has it allready passed over

Just passed here at 2 minutes to midnight I noticed it was when it started. Quick burst of torrential rain with the strong winds which are still strong.. Squall line looking much more impressive a bit to my north!

That is an impressive radar image though!

Right im off to bed, as i should have been 1-2 hours ago!

Edit: cant spell.. Definitely off to bed!

When ever these events happen they always come at night!

Just checked the met office radar. It's getting close now looks like i'm in for some bad rain !!

[reef]

Yes Im here, but Im quite far east, so it hasnt hit us yet. :ph34r:

[Lewis]

[sunny scunny]

Im in the middle of that heavy rain to the north and south.5 minutes of moderate rain here so far :ph34r:

[chrisb1357]

Sorry to ask this but is it the front edge or the back edge of this line we have to look out for. Still learning you see

Chris

[PeterDoswell]

hi chris . im no expert but i would say the front edge as this is where the two temperatures meet :lol: cold front hitting the warmer air . but still potential behind it too :ph34r:
