Would like to stay up or at least set the alarm to check but i have a geography exam first thing tomorrow so i need sleep

Hopefully if a storm passes by it will wake me up

Had a few heavy showers here today, it ruined my BBQ lol.

Had some lovely clouds formations today, towers, cirrus, cumulus, mammatus.

Here is a picture, it was like something out of independance day;

Rain is getting pretty heavy now, but we still haven't got the heaviest area over us yet. Should be fun when we do! 

if the NMM model is correct then we could see something out of this intense rain!

Looking interesting at the moment, winds picking up here and some decent looking thundery clouds about. Lets hope the showers to continue to grow and intensify.

Yup same here. Sheffield shield holding out fairly well the heavy rain struggling to make progress. Actually we could get very large amounts of rain due to the slowness of movement when it gets here.

Still no sign of any lightening activity.

Anyone know when the worst will be over for coventry , estimation of course

yes I know hasn't started yet but Want to have something to look forward to and the end of this weather would be ideal

Hi Dogs,

Whats actually happening then?

Its as if its moving ENE to me, pivoting. Or is it really moving southwards? or is it expected to shift a little later. OR lol could a conv.zone setup to the south of the band with some really hefty showers.

I have not really looked at the charts over the past 2 days mate. I think i'll see a few showers, as it seems to be breaking up this side of the penines.

[Guest]

already a LOT of standing water here, and plenty more rain to come.

It's moving NE at the moment.

[Mesoscale]

Roadhouse!

Pretty weird to here about this all of a sudden that london and the home counties could get hit tonight?

No prior conversation about it! whoa!

Im not gonna jinx it by telling my dad as hes always soo negative, i blame him for a our storm shield!

[Gordon]

The rain band is still to go through here yet

[Lynxus]

I think while its moving E / NE the area of rain should slowly push South Whilst it still rotates E / N-E

[Craigers]

steady rain here now!

yea thats how I was seeing it.....I was surprised myself to be honest about this forecast.....Saw to updates from Mrs Willets weather girl.

According to her the Thundery rain will turn torrentail in places as the nights goes on..

With Storms in places which some will be nasty TS...

She focused on S/E Midlands and the home counties for the worst of t he storms...

Also stating that these will be ongoing on and off through the night into the early hrs.

Seemed extremely confident on both forecasts.

and yes moving South East EXTREMLY slowly

Great!

Just Great!

Exactly

It just so happens that I was doing an all-nighter anyway with an essay due in tomorrow, so this comes as an added bonus!

Though I do have this feeling that the most interesting stuff will miss Coventry to the South.
