@ChadWeather Swindon has a decent chance? I see a lot of developing showers around us.

Hefty showers around now and a more organised band of rain sinking SE over the next 30-60 mins. Some torrential downpours. Risk of hail and thunder.

@UKStormUpdates Oh man, I hope to see this again this summer. We haven’t seen a good t storm since 2024!

There have been several lightning strikes near Swindon recently from a storm travelling NE. Lightning map: lightningmaps.org Radar: netweather.tv/live-weather/r…

@MesocastUK Nice and prepared for convective season I see😆. Hopefully it begins soon

Whilst not a lot is happening on the convective weather front right now, we announce our website is live and ready to start issuing convective weather products. Archiving starts today 27th March 2026 with all dates archived moving forward. #mesocast mesocast.uk

A long-range threat of tornadoes and severe storms has been detected for Friday, April 3rd across the Plains and Midwest. This forecast initialized on Friday morning (3/27). Follow this page and see the app for future forecast updates.

Tornado probabilities this high at hr 204 tend to only occur around 25 times per year! The tornado threat for April 3rd seems to be trending up some. Still considerable uncertainty.

TACO-ing or waiting for the Marines to get into position? Regarding "talks are ongoing and, despite erroneous statements ... and others, they are going very well." Six hours ago ... *TRUMP: DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE WILLING TO WORK ON DEAL WITH IRAN

April 3rd-9th brings on and off storm chances back into the region and a good chance for above average precipitation. Severe weather? Heavy rain? It's too early to know what Arkansas gets in on. Our radar will be active though!

@active7866 @SpencerHakimian Iran don’t stand a chance against the US my guy

@SpencerHakimian Welcome we are waiting for you 🫡

'NO TURNING BACK': President Trump warns Iran to "get serious soon" after the regime rejects a ceasefire proposal to end the war.

🚨 THIS IS NOT A DRILL 🚨 TRUMP HAS 3 OPTIONS LEFT IN THE IRAN WAR. ALL 3 ARE CATASTROPHIC. After 4 weeks of strikes, Iran just said to every American soldier: "Come closer." They've trained 20 years for this. ⚠️ OPTION 1: SEND GROUND TROOPS → 4,500 Marines mobilizing now → Iran has "designated kill zones" mapped for 20+ years → IRGC's stated goal: CAPTURE US soldiers alive for leverage → 13 US bases already uninhabitable ⚠️ OPTION 2: KEEP BOMBING → Week 4. Iran still counterattacking. → Oil above $100/barrel. Stocks down 4 weeks straight. → Iran decentralized governance BEFORE the war — bombing hits nothing critical → NATO allies refusing to join ⚠️ OPTION 3: NEGOTIATE → Iran rejected the US 15-point peace proposal → White House says Iran "defeated" — Iran just made 13 bases uninhabitable → Any deal Iran accepts = nuclear program survives → Walking back = 4 weeks of war for nothing There is no Option 4. No clean exit. The generals warned this before the first strike. They were overruled. The real war hasn't even started yet.

💥BREAKING: Trump's 5-day pause on strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure expires in 48 hours. Expect Volatility.

💥BREAKING: Nobody is talking about how fragile this is right now. US and Iran’s ceasefire stance: “We won. You surrender.” The US is ramping up military presence fast. If talks fail, this escalates quickly.

BREAKING: White House says if Iran talks fail, Trump will 'hit harder' 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/ve6pos?update=…

Wouldn't be surprised if we see some Central Texas mesoscale days mixed in during the first 1-2 weeks of April. General pattern seems to resemble some photogenic Texas tornado days.

@Petagna 😭

@TempestWatch should have used head and shoulders 😉😅

Cold Arctic air passing over less cold seas is generating plenty of open cell convection/cumuliform shower clouds today, and increasingly showery inland too as coastal showers come ashore and as temperatures overland rise during the day to spawn further convective activity 🌦❄️

@ElijahWx37695 @UKStormUpdates Meh. Our thunderstorms r pathetic compared to the US

@TempestWatch @UKStormUpdates Looks stormy out there I guess UK knows ball

A few lightning strikes have been detected across the UK at midday as blustery showers move in from the NW – these will continue on their trajectory through the afternoon with graupel/small hail likely in the heaviest showers.

Nice😅

@UKStormUpdates O. Today looks active!

Lightning detected to the NE of Ashbourne in Derbyshire. Lightning map: lightningmaps.org Radar: netweather.tv/live-weather/r…
