Okay a day or so early but as there is a risk of storms from as early early as the morning hours of July 1st I figured why not.


I have a confession and that is when when the term 'tropical downpour' is used so casually to describe a downpour on here... 


This is is a tropical downpour..

I have seen this kind of rain in the UK, but it's far rarer then one might think if they read forums like these during rainy days lol.


So here's hoping for some overnight Flash Bangs over the coming week ⚡️⚡️😊☀️☀️

Late Wednesday and into early Thursdays for Central areas at the moment looks most at risk IMO.


Then there's late Friday and Saturday and possibly even Sunday depending on which model you look at.

High res ppn places an axis of convection on a line Oxford to IOW from Weds am moving NNW. Highest temps likely east of this.
Could be interesting for folks stuck under thundery outbreaks until after lunch wondering where the hot sun has got to.

I would be surprised not to see some thunderstorms later today in parts of the north.

As I mentioned last night, some orographic forcing may initiate some convection this afternoon. Some limited signs of this over N. Wales and the Pennines now.

Some lightning returns now from a pocket of instability around Brest.

Some tantalizing very faint and distant convection seen south over the channel from Poole.

Some quite heavy returns showing up in the showers over western Scotland, with a couple of sferics thrown in as well.

Timing key to the risk areas tomorrow afternoon and evening. Looks like the cold front is not as quick on it's eastward push tomorrow, so I suspect the warning area given by the MetO to be refined westward to cover Pennine areas, NW England, and central/E of Scotland.

What seems to be some (fast?)developing activity near the Channel Islands too and a blob near Portland on the Rain Today site

That Channel activity is walking the strait of desolation that has so long been a convective graveyard. Interesting to see what happens as it makes landfall.

Some impressive CB clouds just passing to my east, must be around the Portsmouth area. Not exactly in the forecast, I think, shows storms may pop up anywhere.


edit: havn't updated my location but I'm in Southampton now :)

Interestingly its currently trying to build rather than decay, but as you say, few cells manage the treacherous crossing and with sun heading ever lower the energy source is basically gone now.

Meh. If it waters my allotment for me overnight I'll be happy.

There is a lot of visible virga with this lot... Probably explains the radar picking up all the rain but with very little on the ground.
