  1. Interesting little article on Lightning and wind turbines (with a groovy lightning video clip) - http://arstechnica.com/science/2014/01/lightning-bolts-love-wind-turbines-a-little-too-much/
  2. Yeah a couple weeks back for example there was not much weather talk at all in the SE thread for a couple days! (Still raining here...10mm so far today)
  3. How many fronts can we have over the British Isles at once? Looks like snakes and ladders!
  4. Haha mild sleet I never thought getting a 4x4 a couple months back would be good for driving through floods - I hoped it would be good for snow! I even watched some videos of crazy Russians playing with their cars in the snow to see if it would be any good before buying it!
  5. There were a couple earthquakes directly South of London today, not very far away http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/Map/zoom.php?key=75&typ=euro#2
  6. Been a miserable day, quite like my mood (couldn't face work today with a fever, headache and sore throat) it's been around 5'C all day and rain on and off all day. Just went out so seeif the cat's collar was in the garden as he's lost it (along with the £50 tracker I bought to see where he goes) and checked the grass and in most places it's still a layer of water over the mud and the grass tops poking through. Been on the edge of the green and blur on the radar all day, but most definitely rain here, nothing whiter.
  7. Radar has sleet/snow/rain falling overhead. There is nothing falling from the sky at the moment
  8. And another Magnitude mb 4.7 Region REYKJANES RIDGE Date time 2014-01-29 05:59:20.0 UTC Location 56.72 N ; 34.15 W Depth 10 km I think I'll read that link over a couple of sittings JP!
  9. I've got a Lemsip Rain's stopped (for now) 13mm so far today. Probably more before the day's out.
  10. Rain seems to have got stuck over us here.... still piddling down. 8mm in the last 45 mins
  11. Chucking it down at the moment with big blobs of rain. 5.5'C and 5mm of rain in the last 20 mins... shame it's not 5' colder
  12. HEre we go, this is what we need: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZvJ49gJ9Tw
  13. The only daisies in my garden would have to be daffodil height to reach above the mud/water level. I've not fed any birds this "winter" because I need wellies to walk on the grass - you sink in about 2 inches under water when treading on what looks like nice grass.
  14. I don't trust that radar any more - only had a bit of drizzle and that's it here in the City.
  15. The bright reds have disappeared from radar now though - it's like the M25 is a big wall sucking life from it And 5 mins later they're back!
  16. Anyone else having radar problems again? The 13:15-13:25 images are rather wetter than they should be! Big blob of rain coming down the M4 at the moment almost at the M25.
  17. Not even still a frost here this morning. Looks like maybe a little bit of sleet incoming shortly but nothing to get excited about.
  18. Frost started forming on cars here. The streetlights have turned off for the first time at about 5 to midnight. From the front of my house I can see 4 street lights but only one street light has been set to turn off. But looking out the back it's total darkness - eerie like a powercut My CCTV night vision is really struggling!
  19. Yeah I know but how does it work it out? Is there a standard formula? Indeed it does - I wonder if it'll make it to here? It's falling as sleet already
