Valid: 2009-06-12 00:00:00 - 2009-06-12 23:59:00
Regions Affected
NW & W Ireland ( western parts of Northern Ireland and central & western Ireland are included in the WATCH )
Synopsis
Existing showers and storms across eastern Scotland and eastern England will drift into the North Sea overnight, where there is a low risk of thunder and lightning (hence the WATCH). As the occlusion moves through Ireland and Northern Ireland northeastwards during the morning and early afternoon, scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop across the North Atlantic. Whilst there is a risk of a few well-scattered and mostly light showers developing across western Ireland during the afternoon, the main focus will be during the evening hours with an increase risk of thundery showers affecting some western coasts of Ireland, the risk continuing into the night and extending further north.
