(as earlier thread by Ceedeeh01) its all in foreign!! or is their a button to get an English version? I would like to try it as Ceedeeh01 says iits more reliable than stormview etc. By the way, HEART FM weather forcasters are predicting heavy thunderstorms for the EAST MIDLANDS this afternoon and evening??? Cannot find any info to indicate this? Anybody know about these storms heading my way?? Cheers Virtual Stormchaser.
Sorry VSC what is it you want to achieve ? Do you want a desktop storm tracker ?

e.g. Stormtracker.Co.Uk Downloads

Re: Thunderstorm Discussion 16th - 23rd Aug 2008

Hi Scotweather; yes I think that is what I am after, the way I read the post earlier, ceedeeh01 was saying that the link he had given in that post led to something more accurate than stormview. So I wanted to try it but could not understand what to download because it was in foriegn language. Regards VSC

at the moment it appears to be too far north
but the convective outlook is for storms to pop up anywhere across most of the UK
