Convective/Thunderstorm Discussion Spring /Summer 2025

Nice area of convergence along the South on Thurs where it should get into the low 20's but again weak shear and looks to be a strong cap in place, will see tomorrows charts .

A lot of cloud building now around Tralee, some convective in nature, don't know if it will spark though.

Parameter's although marginal and a way less shear than would need normally could still produce thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon especially along the convergence line running along the inland south of the country. Places like the Galtees, Comeraghs, Knockmealdown, Blackstairs and Wicklow Mountain Ranges could aid lift and be an area of interest . The afternoon heat south of the Cold Front and subtle instability from converging winds and subtle movement aloft in the upper trough could give rise to some heavy convective showers and possibly thunderstorms.

Skew T for Clonmel tomorrow afternoon,

Nice cell with good height around Bantry but the only one that formed and very little rain along the South in the end. Hard to get storms without decent shear in Ireland. Fair bit of activity over in the UK today.
