El Gordo! - Spanish Plume Thunderstorm Discussion 3

[Stormyking]

even with the cloud cover down here it shouldn't be a problem if the storms are elevated, I have seen elevated storms develop in overcast conditions plenty of times.

PATIENCE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

What have clams got to do with anything?

Good luck charm.

[Neilsouth]

Yay!! Its a sign, flying ants just started. Convection City.

They love thermals! as do seagulls which we had today going in circles

good for storms but doesn't always work that way

[P-M]

Something else appears to be forming near Durham but it wont make it to Newcasle if it develops, maybe Sunderland this time...

[TEITS]

Still looking good from the NAE.

As i've said many times it isn't until late evening/midnight before it all kicks off.

Tee hee! It's so hot here in Orpington that i'm a bit giddy! Cirrus thickening here now but it is still very humid.

[Southender]

Still 33.4c here, humidity continuing to drop @ 37% now.

Sky now going milky.

Dewpoint also dropped about 4c in 3 hours. Currently @ 16.7c

is it coming to my neck of the woods? can anyone answer? thanks all

[P-M]

Back up to 21°C, hopefully a nice evening in store now

Are you writing the rest of the afternoon and evening off in terms of storm potential in the Northeast?

I think so. If anything does crop up I doubt it'll top what we've already had anyway.

[Costa Del Fal]

Well it did brighten up a little here but back to high cloud now. In my opinion I really cant see much occurring away from the East now.

[Alex95]

Apparently there was no rain in Sunderland, just distant thunder!

[P-M]

I think so. If anything does crop up I doubt it'll top what we've already had anyway.

Based on what? I can hear thunder to my south again probably around the Sunderland area the shower is intensifying rapidly. I really don't think you can write off the afternoon until it's all stopped.//...

Dont spoil it for the rest of us

Yeah, but I think its all tied into that trough which is clearing away to the east. There's nothing on the radar now either.

[scotteboi]

You and me both....just need it all to kick off later... bring on the prawns...oh, I mean storms!!

[snowlover2009]

It is very humid and sticky here ugh. But a brilliant day we got 30c and now I await on potential storm through this evening, I bet the interesting part could be 7 onwards...

0

I'm just talking about the far NE - further south you could still see something, though that old MCS is spoiling things atm.

[The PIT]

You've got about 30-45 mins until they clear into the North Sea

There's always a nuclear sub

Sun back out here so probably a warm/hot dry evening to come. Come on cold front hurry up.

Thoroughly doubt it mate, I am admittedly a pessimist when it comes to summer storms because I can't even remember the last time I've seen a big one with frequent lightning and decent hail, it's been years....

Every time there's ever a chance of French imports hitting the home counties, they either bog off north-eastwards and give Kent all the action or if you're really unlucky they may move (rarely) north-westwards or develop over the Bay of Biscay moving Northerly hitting the West country.

It has been years. It's getting boring now that's why I decide to be pessimistic. I'll be a changed man if I witness a big storm tonight but guess what I bet it doesn't happen!

[Heisenberg]

Can someone explain, whats MSC stand for?
