Not so sure Duane. I think the worst stuff has just been experienced with the area over Brest carrying any electrical stuff too far East as the Low tilts the windflow more SW to NE as it moves North to our West. Time will tell though. Should get a spell of squally rain here later though ahead of winds veering NW.

All quiet here wonder if we will get something tonight or will it miss again,

Heads up to a Torro tornado watch for the second round over night for just about everywhere south of birmingham.

Was in Havant at 8.30pm and had quite a violent 10 minutes of torrential rain and rapidly veering and backing wind squalls.
I suspect something was going on aloft but didn't have a decent field of view.

Trip back home just now and plenty of deep water on the roads.

Looks like Part II to my SW.

Susan Powell on the 10.35pm weather on BBC1 came as close as I've ever heard a weather forecaster come to predicting tornadic activity tonight.

Her comment was "the system coming up from the south west has the same energy as the storm that hit Hayling Island at the weekend".

THAT is suggesting something very very dramatic could come off tonight.

Very exciting but also a bit worrying!

yep numerous sites have now issued warnings

going to be an interesting night for some

There is a lot of showery activity down to the SW at the moment but little of it is electrified and the precipitation has become less organized. So I'm going to leave you tonight with my thought that don't be surprised if very little happens. I think most areas will see some sort of squall line pass through overnight but for many it will be far from dramatic and for a few there may be something more exciting. I think the squall passing through Central Southern England and the Home Counties earlier will probably be the most exciting for many things are going to get, but of course i could be wrong, the morning will tell.

i would be inclined to agree but some of the warnings i have read sugest the second band gettign its act

togeather as it moves onto the south coast and inland time will tell i guess.

i thought i was a little to far north and west to catch anything interesting but the bbc n24

forecast has me square in the fireing line figures when i have to be up n out for work at 5am i could have an interesting

drive to work accross rural west berks

Heavy/thundery showers likely later on for some.

Thunder lightning and light rain currently in Wirral. Quite mild too, windows open in end of October - who have thunk it

No thunder here, but some potent squally thundery rain showers rattling through on the wind. Very mild.

Rumbles here too just now.
