Up until now, this has been a very dry month here. That has been the case throughout much of the UK and one of the side-effects of this is that it has been very quiet on the convection front until now.
According to the Met Office though, that is now set to change as they have issued a thunderstorm warning for this area for Thursday between the hours of 12 noon and 9pm on that evening. This warning area covers most of Scotland, Northern Ireland and the north of England.
Because of that, I thought that it would be good idea to start this thread just as there hadn't yet been a convection thread for this month up until now, and because I believe that this thread is likely to become rather lively in the coming days.
The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.
