Default hindcast - why it was where it was?

A glance at the radar and Sferic information during the afternoon clearly
showed the favoured areas for development. Yet forecasts continually
mentioned the Southeast and as Julian stated this prevailed well into the
evening.


Well they were right then given the storm that developed over London in
the evening and moved across East Anglia. However I agree that more
frequent live 'nowcasts' would help show what is currently happening and
could have placed the emphasis on the intense TS occuring over the
Midlands/NE England as well as mentioning what could develop later.

I must admit I hardly watch New24 weather anymore because of this :-(

Jon.
