Hi all,

The latest short TAFs at EGNX and EGBB going for a PROB30 of +TSRA
and
TSGR
at EGCC.
Joe

Mod burst here at 1409Z, lasting all of a minute but dampening
everything.
Back edge of shower now visible with a growing tower of Cu.

Cloud tops were reaching just about -35C, which fits in pretty nicely to
the
expected tops. The -35C line on the 12Z Nottingham Ascent equates to
just
above 400mb. Clearly the cap preventing release of plenty of low level
cape
was eroded this afternoon as the upper trough advanced and daytime
heating
occured. (differential advection) Tops would have probably just
overshot
the equlibirium level at just over 400mbs.

The onset of mass convection was clear as the PVA max region traversed E.
Only a mod burst here as all passed to the S and SE. Some spectacular Cu
med
were observed and also some Cb. The "midday" ascents are actually launched
at 11Z IIRC. Where did you obtain 03354 from today as nothing from Wyoming
or Infomet ?

ATB, Joe
