60Good

Best window 21:00 – 23:00

  • High thunderstorm risk, worst around 03:00.
    Why we say thisThe atmosphere is holding 2,610 J/kg of convective energy — the fuel storms run on. Above 1,000 there is a risk; above 2,500 it is high. It measures potential, not rain, which is why a storm can arrive on a day forecast for none.
