Just heard this absolute banger on The Weather Channel for the first time in forever 👌

Thunderstorm Outlook ⛈️
As highlighted for a number of days, an area of elevated #thunderstorms are likely to move north through Thursday morning, bringing torrential rain (30-40mm widely over six hours). The day may see two waves, with lightning and hail additional risks.

Thunderstorm Outlook ⚡️
Through this afternoon, thundery downpours are likely to develop in the highlighted region with the MDT zone seeing a chance of a stronger line of storms, aided by surface convergence and decent MUCAPE (>1200 J/kg).

There's been a significant increase in thunderstorm outlook graphics lately, something @Met4CastUK has also mentioned. That itself is absolutely fine and is really good to see!
What concerns me is the apparent lack of human meteorological input behind some of them, with AI seemingly doing much of the interpretation.
Interpret Skew-Ts, compare the models indvidually, look at the wider synoptic and thermodynamic setup. AI is an incredibly useful tool, but at the end of the day, the forecaster still has to forecast!

Outlook for tonight into Saturday morning ⛈️ Storms will be elevated as a trough runs NE, destabilising the atmosphere.
Potential for surface-based storms also exists during the day (anywhere from Chilterns eastwards). There is a risk the far SE may see further storms later on.

A slightly late graphic for today/tonight but with some new developments.
A large area of elevated thunderstorms developed in the SW earlier, and this is tracking ENE into the upper low region. Overnight, another area of storms may affect the SE before drifting into the Channel.

🚂🐾 Trains are running today at the Bluebell Railway with Chase & Marshall visiting!
Warm weather? We’ve got plenty of undercover and shaded areas, including SteamWorks, to help keep you cool.
Some nearby roads may be affected by the London to Brighton Cycle Ride.

A thundery afternoon to come across the region with storms expected to develop with the colder air aloft in place.
Thunderstorms will initially move E before veering SE later on with most of the strongest storms in eastern parts. Some may feature rotation with weak helicity.

A day of thundery showers across the whole region to come, and a blanket low strength outlook is the result.
Storms should break out this afternoon, likely in two zones - the more active one across central/southern parts extending NW and another area around Oxford.

The UK public celebrates a genuine national treasure on his centenary, which coincides with a landslide of council votes for a political party that rejects net zero, wants to defund the institutions that Attenborough's life has enriched, and doesn't care about nature. Go figure.

1/3 On 28th May - on his 25th birthday - I am planning a one off charity livestream to remember lovely Josh Seymour who was taken away from us so suddenly on 5th December last year.
The stream will be a celebration of Josh's life and the time we shared with him...
