Visible channel (sat24.com) from EUMETSAT. The sea breeze acts like a lifting mechanism for convection initiation in Dobrudja. The general circulation in SE Romania is from South, and will produce propagation toward the South, and there is a strong low level flux of moisture from the sea to Moldova. Severe weather is expected in the Eastern half of Romania, several supercells.
Later: a supercell splits: on satellite (two red circles), and radar (zoom on the SE part of Romania). Is nice to observe the huge dimensions of the anvil.

A Bow Echo
An early morning bow echo approaching the Bucharest area. Seen on Radar (with a zoom around Bucharest). visible sat chanel (from sat24.com) and RGB-airmass product (EUMETSAT,NMA).
The dry air behind the system (west of Bucharest), is the trigger of the bow, but the rear inflow jet is high, so instead of wind, a rain-pool can form with a flash-flood.
Heavy rain is expected.

Undular Bores on radar and satellite
Undular Bores leaving a strong convective system.
Easier to see on visible satellite because they are too shallow for the radar horizont.
We expect severe weather today in the Western and Southwestern Romania, heavy rainfall, wind gusts.
