Thunder watch - mid April 2011?

CarMuppet · 2011-04-17 20:29:19

Just seen Met forecast on RTE. A mention of possible thunderstorms due to warm humid south (SE) airflow. What do the experts here think? I personally love a good light show.... EDIT: now I feel dumb.... Just seen the other thunder thread.... Sorry lads

time for a May convection watch?

Looks like some interesting convective systems should be blowing our way from tomorrow right through the weekend. Primarily affecting the midlands and north by my estimations with Dublin maybe missing out on the fun as a result of the southerly airflows, but i will remain optimistic.

Looking at the netweather cape charts its looking very good between now and monday, although it'll probably bypass me as it usually does. Lets hope theres plenty of rain in the next day or two to put out the fires.

I'm gonna close up this thread given that it's not quite Mid-April any more
There's the 2011 thread here though:

And if anyone wants to make a seperate thread for a specific event in the future then that's fine too.
