Looks like a nice trough moving into the west of the UK with the latest
radar showing a large area of heavy rain over the SW together with gusty
winds (0400GMT)
Interesting few hours ahead I think.

I can also confirm it's quite lively down here, Alan. The 0600Z radar image
shows a narrow, intense line of echoes extending west along the coast from
the main band associated with the trough. The line (roughly lying between
Plymouth and Penzance) is perhaps not too dissimilar to that associated with
tornado development.
