A disrupting upper trough on Wednesday will result in a cut-off low forming near the Bay of Biscay during the overnight hours, while the main trough axis continues to slide southeastwards down the North Sea. Cold air aloft atop relatively warm SSTs will aid the development of numerous showers over open seas, these then advecting inland due to steering winds largely from the north or northwest. As was the case on Sunday, convection will be rather shallow in depth and so for the most part the risk of lightning is considered very low - but the odd strike cannot be ruled out.
