2nd May 2024 - Central Southern England Storms

Ойын-сауық

A very warm, moist plume was being drawn northwestwards into the UK from the near continent and overriding cooler more stable air already in place at the surface. Cool air from the Atlantic was then overriding the plume. The combination of this was set to destabilise the air and produce some active elevated thunderstorms through the early hours with the likelihood of frequent lightning.

    Thank you. I decided many years ago I wanted to replicate what they do in the US but in our much tamer climate. To showcase that the UK does have storms, even if they are nowhere near the scale of the US.

    Good on you for chasing through the night! The storms through the London area around 4a.m. were impressive and probably worth the wait!

    I find chasing at night much easier. Less traffic congestion and easier to see the lightning in real life aswell as on radar. Although I do tend to regret it when the tiredness hits 😆

    These storms unfortunately just stayed a bit too far south from my location in Hertfordshire. But it was absolute bedlam down the A1M in Barnet and Borehamwood, I went shopping there the next day and all the cashiers in the shops were talking about the thunder and lightning. And parts of Surrey too got walloped.

    The second part of my video is in Surrey and then I catch a storm in Watford (Hertfordshire). I think that was the northern limit. Hopefully next time you get to see them too 👍

    Why so much lightning 🌩.. when I was younger me and my family never remember seeing soo much lightning in thunder storms only in the last 3-4 years or so... is it global warming or climate change?? Anyone have any ideas ??

  • @supacellstormchasing

    @supacellstormchasing

    Interesting thought. It tends to be the elevated storms that see the most frequent lightning, which are more common with storms from the near Continent. Areas near to the south coast would be most prone due to being closer. I have seen more storms with frequent lightning in the last few years but that could be because I am from the Midlands and now travel to the south coast regularly to see storms. I am not well educated in this but I would have thought global warming would bring an increase in moisture, and this would have the effect of more rain and flooding but less lightning. So I don't think it is related to that, but I could be wrong.
