Convective/Thunderstorm Discussion 2013/14

I don't see any thunderstorms out of this other than the odd rumble.
Mainly just very heavy rain.
Galway looks pretty dreadful mind for Ladies day and I wouldn't be overly surprised if the day's events get curtailed mid afternoon

weisses

Only rain though .... Never found that interesting :P ... Tornado's we want

RuthieRose

Very black sky's to the west of Galway. The fake tan will be running down the streets!!!!!
Lots of lightning on sat 24 to the very south west. Brace yourselves!!!!!

maquiladora

06Z GFS at 6pm showing 2-3cm hail possible in whatever storms do form.

Sorry mate , but this is the weather forum , not the moaning forum , last time you where here you were the same.

So yeah... Inhale... exhale... inhale... exhale... and move on.

Hardly a breath of wind in west Dublin. Calm before the storm?

There's a chance it could miss dublin altogether, might get rain but that will be about it looking at the current set up.

Two active cells off the south west coast at the mo. lots of lightening!!! Would be good if it stays active!!!!!!

I know the West are in for the action that is already on sat and radar! But this is a widespread very moist, warm and very unstable airflow. So the rest of the country could get a few treats or surprises! :rolleyes:

I'm hoping for a nice photogenic tornado on the East coast & if I end up in it I'll start praying then!

Well I'm hitting the road to Dublin soon, in the complete wrong direction to see anything interesting today. :pac: I'll be following things on the forum from the road and hopefully those looking for storms will get to see something today. It looks promising on satellite already I must say.

Lightning from the cells out at sea. The location of the strikes of the map are wrong because of the distance from the detector but the general direction is correct.

I'm going to Blur this evening, I'd usually love a thunderstorm but not today! What are the chances that Dublin will avoid it??

Its very good! But distance is out of calibration!

Thunderstorms look very unlikely for the the east, there could still be heavy showers around but if we're lucky Dublin might not be too bad.

I wonder will there be any home brew thunder storms developing as the day goes on. Or are we hoping that the pre package storm way off the south west coast make landfall anywhere long the west coast later this afternoon or in the evening?
