Today in Norwich has been one of those dull muggy days when it looked like it was going to chuck it down but only drizzled. But at 7pm, all of a sudden the heavens opened- the third huge cloudburst here in the space of a week!

Whats the chances of some storms breaking out in the se 2moro??

I have had 1 storm this year (lasted about 5 mins, one flash, and one grumble)

Four years ago was amazing, we chased 2 storms and in both we had counted over 1000 flashes!!:shok: Cant wait for this to happen again :good: i love a lightning show.

Been a silent few days here lately, , barely any wind and a stubborn humid, muggy feel. Rained today, seemed to be an area of showery outbreaks passed through during the afternoon. Quite heavy too.

Au contraire, even Lapland seems to be under a severe risk today.

Noticed far NE Europe and NW Russia have been forecast big CAPE most days recently, but then they have been having a heatwave with winds from a S or SE direction, a far cry from our weak thundery showers this summer!

Think Santa and his elves have had a much better summer than us for storms. Storm chasing by Santa's sleigh? :p

Not difficult though!

Is a struggle to find anything remotely interesting concerning convection for the foreseeable future

so really is a low risk of anything thundery at this stage.

Join up to the NSC. (No Storms Club 2010! I'm Jane's teaboy!) Membership is free and a fresh cup of tea.

Weather09 will be there soon. :yahoo:

Don't forget it's voluntary - they might have no "staff" available today.

They normally have such a good and continued service. I guess everyone needs a break!!! Not that we in this country have anything to really worry about for a while.
