Convective / Storm Risk Discussion - 14th June 2013 onwards

[Evening thunder]

Just went out to look for something in my car, heard 2 very distant rumbles! first one I wasn't sure, but 2nd one was definite, I can't mistake that deep low rumble of (very) distant thunder now!

[A.J]

Storm definitely decaying slightly now!

don't be too reliant on radar imagery & ATD data, it's a lively storm!

[Ben Sainsbury]

It could still redevelop when it reaches land. Let's stay positive

[NO LONGER POSTING]

That storm is deffo still alive don't worry people...

http://www.sat24.com/en/eu?ir=true atm this shows heavy stuff disipating before it get to us ??

[Harry]

It's looking pretty active towards Devon/Cornwall...still kicking out decent activity!!!

Looking quieter though across CNorthern France though with couple of weaker cells. Models though seem keen to generate more later though so fingers crossed. Oh and I think I've Wednesday afternoon off if something wishes to happen

Looking at the Sat loop also some dry slots in amongst the moisture bands which will help initiation....swear I can hear a cricket of some description also :-)

As long as my baby is okay, then i'm fine:)

Anywhere south and east of Plymouth should hear that thunder! boom!

[Convective]

Dayum! This storm is going just out of sight of the SFCC Brunel Tower cam! Anyone know any live streaming cams overlooking the storm?

 

Also seems that there is a second series of cells building behind the one about to hit the south coast. Either this or very convincing echoes

Dear Harry's Boss dont  let him have the wednesday afternoon of as his real aunts, sisters, brothers, mother twice removed is very much alive and he is really chasing storms

[Mapantz]

The skies look thundery to my south east but nothing as yet. You can view it on my webcam ..

[Buckster]

something tells me - those situations that are borderline - often seem to come off -  yet other much more favourable scenarios often end up a bust

 

so I've high hopes for tonight, and tomorrow and less so for Wednesday

Looks like I'll keep my eye on that for the time being.

[Harry]

Interesting little trough feature on the latest FAX chart stretching from N Wales round to E Kent....should be a focal point for showers and storms tomorrow if it materialises!

[ardsar]

its currently gone quiet, and not picking up much sferics. It could be having a rest i guess / hope

[philglossop]

Looks like the rainband is just hitting around Wembury/Heybrook Bay from my bedroom window- clearer oddly towards Plympton.

 

Come on!

 

Edit- it's really black towards the South Hams directly south of here

[Ben Sainsbury]

Still a few sferics around

[Cloudwatcher]

Same here Kate. Something needs to go pop.

Noooo, you can't leave your friends in the NSC!

Its starting to look and feel very ominous here in South Ockendon right now.

[philglossop]

I can see the leading edge of this rain band, but it's creeping so slowly compared to the radar!

It must seem like it's never going to arrive but it will:)!

[philglossop]

Lightening towards Plympton!

[JK1]

I want to go down to beach later but not sure if will come to my area, what direction is it heading?

Edited June 17, 2013 by JK1

[Evening thunder]

Nice distant rumble then ('loudest' so far but still pretty distant and quiet of course) they don't seem very frequent at the moment though, and sometimes planes about to be annoying.

 

Edit: another 2 decent ones then that most members of the public should be able to hear and probably recognise as thunder.

That cell looks to be heading roughly in my direction,,, #wishfulthinking 

[Supacell]

Impressive number of strikes from the cell near Caen. If it can survive the channel that is likely to hit the IOW area (in a few hours time).
