Eire
N Ireland
THREATS
Isolated tornadoes; hail; gusty winds; CG lightning.
SYNOPSIS
Unstable rPm airmass in place, close to upper cold pool. Shower/thunderstorms are developing in response to insolation. Backed low-level flow to NE of surface low, especially in the north of the area, may help in providing sufficient low-level shear for isolated tornadoes. In addition, cool air aloft brings the chance of marginally severe hail. Gusty winds/CG lightning also expected.
Forecaster: RPK.
