    Hi WC, We need an off-shore wind as storms on Wednesday will be land based, thats my main concern. Though we may get that.

    As for tonite, I dont expect anything really.....though it is very muggy and humid........

    Havnt seen anything here and wont tonight because the trough is further south. Hopefully we get something tomorrow. Even if we dont we should get a few storms the day after. Sun for many tomorrow and the occasional storm:cool:

    Going by the lightning track you would think it was heading for us. Definately NW on radar and looks like it wont come even close but then again stranger things have happened!

    Those times are UTC (GMT)

    So, 0000z = 01.00am at this time of the year. Into November (winter time when the clocks go back) they would appear correct then 0000z = 00.00am
