Nothing thundery but very rapid development over SW Wiltshire towards Bath this afternoon.

 

I was out working in Westbury and once lower cloud cleared at around 13.00 there was very warm sunshine and I had a view of towers rapidly building to the S/W. I got home around 14.15 with it spotting, but an extremely black cloud was approaching and it poured down for two bursts of 5 minutes! The NW radar shows the showers went from no rain to bright red echoes on the in less than half an hour!

 

Back to warm sunshine now but convection is widespread.

My concern imby point of view...they'll intensify in the likes of Market Drayton, Chester, Oswestry poss Stoke way. Bit like yesterday.

Not again please........

 

Why do those south Shropshire hills kill storms so well, they're not very high really. And why do they always kick off again north of here, it's like there's a forcefield.

Good question, seems conditions are more often favoured every where but here lol..think you'll get a rumble a bit later, nothing major was forecast for today if we are honest :) still potential later this week and even slightly beyond, never say never.

It's about time. Nearly 9 years since the last really good storm here (19 June 2005), while places 30-odd miles away keep getting them. 

 

Was noticeable how yesterday's storms survived crossing Snowdonia and the Berwyn, which are much higher than those hills to the south of here.

So in amongst all of this...where is the cold front right now? It's game over once the cold front is through isn't it? There's been a fresher breeze since a short, sharp shower around 3:00 this afternoon...but that wasn't the front was it?

 

Not obvious where it is right now!

Disappointing last night in terms of thunder & lightning, seen a couple of flashes and heard 2 rumbles in the distance but that was it.

Bah - the very dark clouds passed over with a sprinkling of rain, no thunder nor lightning, then vanished north-eastwards. :blink2: Sunny again now, 16.5oC, pleasant enough.
