Fed up of all this claggy NW cloud now.
Please can we have a Spanish Plume with a cold front bashing into it, so we can have some storms? Please?
I think that's going to become more likely over the coming weeks. There is little doubt that France/Spain are going to be seriously heating up and the charts are showing multiple low pressure systems impacting northern UK. 2 ingredients to make thunder!Please can we have a Spanish Plume with a cold front bashing into it, so we can have some storms? Please?
You want a plume? Have a plume! Courtesy of ECM:
No bones about it, these charts are stunning and I doubt anything like this has ever happened - so the temperatures are likely to be watered down. However, the odds are looking good of some hot weather soon. Is that the first time I've used the word 'hot' this year?

What do we think Friday is looking like at the Festival of Speed. Some places think it will be lovely and sunny and others think Rain!
April showers I think is the easiest way to describe Friday. Long sunny spells, but showers are a real risk.Ex-tropical storm in the Mid-Atlantic making itself felt by flinging an arm of precipitation our way. Shouldn't be too windy though.

Watered down?! It's currently forecasting -4C or so for me! So does watered down mean they will get colder or warmer?

That's temperature in the upper atmosphere 
Looks like a couple of thundery break-downs during the heatwave, courtesy of the low pressure in the Atlantic that's assisting by pushing the warm air north.
30oC looks odds on next week, with a fairly good chance of 35oC.
Still a slim chance of this all going away and just left with low 20s - but the chance is reducing all the time and there is cross-model agreement on this plume.

I shall be officially starting my gardening leave on Tuesday afternoon. We then fly to Croatia for 2 weeks of holiday on Saturday before starting my new role on 20th.30oC looks odds on next week, with a fairly good chance of 35oC.

I think I may have timed this one perfectly...
