When i left the flying club at Shoreham around 7.30 this evening i had a
quick check of the TAFs for here and no thunderstorm warnings, rain eased
here now but more lightining over the channel from what appears to be
clusters of small but quite active cells, this coupled with the lightning to
the north is the most impressive i've seen here for ages, fantastic cloud
formations ;-)
As you say it looks like the monsters over the French coast could hit
Kent...................

Thanks Phil. Big storm presently North of the Loire and heading about
020 fairly quickly and, if it gets that far, looking as if it might
just clip, or just miss Kent coast in a few hours time.......now
that's deja vu from last week!

There's also a line of storms heading towards London, which has
developed very quickly. Could be some atmospheric fun and games in the
SE this evening.

Some very heavy rain further North too. Quite an evening for UK
weather......except for the South Devon coast where we have grey skies
and drizzle. 8-((

Actually, there's a lot of developments ahead of that Loire storm and
it is all happening very quickly. The whole thing has much more of a
Northerly track to it now and at the moment, it has Kent and possibly
East Sussex in its sights. Well worth watching over the next couple of
hours. It certainly looks as if the cap has come off and there is some
extremely unstable air heading for the far SE corner.

Have you seen the developments just leaving the French coast?? Torro
have a tornado warning out for the SE and this has the potential to
develop into a very big affair. That's a supercell storm heading for
the far SE and it could cause problems. Met office haven't picked up
on it on the warnings site. Wake someone up!

More developments off the Eastern coast of Kent. It's not that often I
get excited about a weather event in the UK, but this is one. The
worst might miss you Robbie, sorry to disappoint, but if this
continues to develop, there could be the biggest storm in ages over
anywhere in the SE corner. Fascinating viewing on the lightning
detector. STILL no warnings on the Met Office site for the SE corner.
There'll be hell to pay tomorrow, if there is damage. Surely someone
must be on duty in Exeter and seeing this!
