[Harry]

for here i bet anyway, watch further downgrades as the time gets nearer,

Downgrades have, as to be expected, begun, however still on for a nationwide event. Edited June 27, 2015 by Harry

Next week is showing signs of one of the best and most sustained, significant plumes for many a year.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that a significant majority of you will be spectacularly evicted from this hell hole

More than what happened on July 18/19th 2014? Because that was pretty special... :-)

[Dami]

remember to come and say hello, you know, now and again, when you go

[William Grimsley]

Lets hope I don't end up here this week.

[davehsug]

Noticed that most of the storm graphics on the BBC 5 dayer at lunchtime, were over the Eastern half of the country. Here we go again?

[I Cumbria Marra I]

I'll be surprised if the west get more storms than the east even if it looks better for the west on the charts, it just never happens.

[IanR]

oh, surprise !   the east is now more favored for thundery activity, normality resumes then,

 

 it just didnt look right having symbols all over the west  ,   now they are in the east,  thats more like it,

 

truth is.... dont matter where they put the symbols, the east will get the cream

[William Grimsley]

I wouldn't give up hope us westerners, we still have a chance especially Tuesday Night and Friday Night, there's still a chance. But, yeah even if we don't get anything thundery a very warm week in store!

I'll start arranging the chairs.

[Dami]

here in sunny Bedford, as is the norm, storm develop here, i may get a shower and it will turn into a storm further up country. 

 

Prime time for anything is around 12- 3pm . I always seem to get wet on the school run. 

 

I'm liking my stay here. 

 

We are very calm and well mannered considering!

[IanR]

just on the edge of the forecast area,  main storm activity looks to be north of here into scotland,  whats betting towers grow here then turn thundery in north Lancashire about 30 miles from here,   before they prompty move away to the north as fast as they can to get away from me   

[Stuart]

I might be out of the no storm club tomorrow

[Dami]

nothing in the forecast thunder wise for me in the next two days, but am i allowed to moan about that any way?

[davehsug]

Ah well, at least we're not going to be woken by a storm in the night. Wonder what time they'll start breaking out in Lincolnshire?

[Dami]

At the moment been 'woken up' would be good feels like I had zero sleep last night. *buys air con for club*

[Weather-history]

No thunder at all during first half of 2015.

[Dami]

For second thought some rain was heading my way, but no.

 

Hot and no storms = yuck.

[thunderboy]

cant wait for the possible storms thursday be nice to chase been soooo long 

[IanR]

No thunder at all during first half of 2015.

shocking isnt it,  today is just another example of the senario which happens time and time again over the last couple of years,    storms forcast for the NW, but we just end up with patchy rain or nothing , while the usual areas..... even though they may not have a storm forcast, get them anyway, ie southern counties , east midlands, north yorkshire etc 

 

getting beyond a joke,

they started near there after lunch and then moved into north east england

 

meanwhile in the north west

[Trickster]

Still not seen any lightning in 2015

[matt_in_dudley]

Looks like im still in here too! Not a whisper of anything remotely thundery other than a heavy rain shower in Smethick around midday....gutted!

[Dami]

I have had many days like this as a child and pretty much had an over night storm maybe 60% of the time. Today i watched a shower on the radar break up as it reached me and then re-form up the country, this happens so much here.

Being in the NSC is becoming the norm for many of us. 

 

On well a few more days where*something* may happen, but i'm not loving the heat not one bit.

I think for me it's the sheer number of let-downs or forecasts which are over-zealous.

Soon it'll be a case of 'the met office who cried wolf'!

[Snowyowl9]

This year makes last year look like a classic yet.
