[Jane Louise]

I realise this thread is for today's activity, but looking at the forecast of the surface pressure charts on the MetO website, could the trough predicted to move south/SW on Thursday finally mean something for my area around Bristol? Forgive me as i'm no expert or anything, just wanted to get some of your opinions and info of any CAPE/Li values for thursday!

Hi ya,

Let's hope this does occur ,that certainly would be good if it does come about. Nothing here as per usual so it's back to the NSC for me.

[sunny scunny]

It's been chucking it down for ages, but the sky is brightening to my west.The shower is heading straight for the grimsby area.

[Purplepixii]

could really do with a storm down here - I have a stinking "humidity headache" because the air is really thick & humid at the moment. Got very heavy rain again now :blush:

[Jane Louise]

rain starting but no thunder or Lightning yet

Good luck Stupot,

Hope you see something! I may in a couple days lol. Yes, I know ,I've now jinxed it again

[chionomaniac]

The storms are very much lining out looking at the latest radar.

Cape did seem pretty good for us up here (with the charts posted quite a few pages back can't remember where) but it's been a totally dead day weatherwise and can't see it happening now

Should be with me in about 20 mins then, but could lose its intensity like the previous one. It is certainly a very large and organised area though. Still cloudy here with just a little light rain falling.

[lewisosd]

Intense downpour here. Just clearing now though

[tomp456]

blobbing with rain here now. meeeh.

[paul m]

Nice line of heavy rain and storms running from Portsmouth then in a very nice curve missing Nottingham and ending up just above Blackpool. Anyone not in the storm area chin up there is always another day and yes im included in the area of nothing

[Norfolk Sheep]

Gosh, that was such an intense line of thunderstorms it was beyond the realms of human hearing

As usual just degenerated into a mass of drizzly rain but luckily stayed dry here

Mwahaha

Have been watching my postcode SS9 All day and if anything gets within 25 miles of here it just vanishes!

Testing out the V6 Version of the Sherman Shield today and everything in full working order

Have cut the grass, had a cold Magners and now looking at the lovely Summers day with temps around 21-22c

4 weeks to Arizona

Hope it lives up to expectations

All I can say is Norfolk isn't the place for storms it used to be

All I can say is I hope France is more stormy than Dronfield because that's where I'm headed for two weeks

[todd1970]

I take it all the stuff in Southern Ireland at the moment is anaprop ?

Heavy thundery showers forecast for here later..but i cant see where that would come from as all the stuff is moving NE to SE .

[sunny scunny]

7mm of rain today from those two showers which isn't too bad.Some heavy rain heading towards the hull area.

[Dom W]

Anyone in the North East reporting anything?

[paul m]

Looks like its just heavy rain up that way

[Thundery wintry showers]

The showers seem to have largely ground to a halt and Cleadon has had just a few spots today- just cloudy and dry here now.

[seabreeze86]

just had light to moderate rain here, nothing worth reporting, have been told there has been localised flooding in stockton but can not verify myself but i would not be suprised it has been raining there all day according to the radar heavy at times aswell

[Dom W]

Yeah just looked, the clouds are hardly moving and now I can see clouds moving from the south in the last half and hour. Some very dark bases.

[NUT]

Not totally shower free all day as it really has got pretty dark out there and a shower has just started.........need to see what comes of it

[paul m]

The storm shield held up well today. Wish i knew how to disable the ruddy thing

[chrisbell-nottheweatherman]

A couple of fairly heavy showers here this afternoon, no electrical activity.
