With very little wind shear it would. However, these low wind shear conditions don't occur so far to the north. Westerlies aloft prevent it from happening. Anyway, these massive thunderstorms with high winds are bad enough for the folks in Spain, France and Italy. And just try to emagine the first full blown Genua Low this coming autumn. That may turn pretty nasty. , so once the temperatures aloft start dropping - in the coming autumn - ... batten down your hatches ... hell will break loose over there. Will that have much of a knock-on effect on Britain? I don't think so. It is rather a local effect. But talking of deluges: The North sea is quite warm too. Who knows what will be in store for us folks around it. Maybe we see some pretty wet episodes in The Netherlands in the coming autumn. Time will tell.
