Convective / Storm Risk Discussion - 14th June 2013 onwards

Don't confuse the two - It was an MCS

 

Yes would agree with you on that , as I said in the post 'it was a large MCS that hit Paris this morning'.

 

 

Was just highlighting that the radar signature for it was complex. The report below notes the supercell features.

A bit disappointed with the GFS 18z from an IMBY point of view but still the plume holds on for the SE. I just hope it isn't all over the continent by the time we actually get to Wednesday.

 

Sunday looking good for here

Cells forming everywhere, maybe something in Bristol guys look out!

[samadamsuk]

Wednesdays action might miss us all together, but s ever in the UK, its often the surprise events before the projected day that are actualy more memorable 

[Convective]

Beautifully organised now. This band should put on a show for some tonight. Just goes to show those who think CAPE and lifted index are everything.. look at the charts for where that band is starting to establish. Next to nothing in terms of CAPE!

[nitro_deluxe]

Ladies & gentlemen..boys & girls. Anyone else I've missed out?

May the show begin looking good, keep those curtains and windows a-jar

Enjoy ...

That line is almost a continual band across the country from Cornwall to Suffolk with the thundery stuff currently within its western third. 

[Panayiotis]

Squall line? Looking like a good night! Well done to the experts on here that said it would the activity would be homegrown!

[Ben Sainsbury]

Anyone checking the radar, it's extraodinary

[Panayiotis]

First distant flash of summer 2013 here in Cardiff! I have a further maths exam in the morning, damn!

Yep some heavy rain soon, whether it turns thundery its a waiting game.

It's getting closer! Wish it would hurry up though, I got work at 08:00 in the morning!

[Tom Jarvis]

lol and all us in sussex and kent miss out again lol

[Ben Sainsbury]

Don't worry I got my ipad recording it :L

[Hathers]

The radar does look really well organised. I wonder if its going to intensify as it moves north.

[richep]

fair bit of lightning south west from here

[JK1]

No doubt now my area will probably miss out again

[Wilxy]

Same but its starting to get a little intresting now and it feels thundery aswel.

[PolarWarsaw]

Hopefully things continue to move north, might be worth a late one.

[MP-R]

Intense downpour now.

[Ben Sainsbury]

I'm getting so hyped yet ain't seeing no lightning!

It's coming ahhhh!

[cornishbrooksy]

Im back on holiday from HK, and based in the Ilchester Area, approx 5 miles north of Yeovil.

 

Seems to be distant lightning (around 6 strokes CG in last 10 minutes), approx 20-30 miles away, no thunder heard...so taunton was looking at you.

 

Pleasant surprise as was a clear evening, and this band popped out of nowhere.
