Ooooo I'm so excited This is the coldest rain I've felt this winter ;-) LOL

Looks like businesses on New Brighton seafront are not taking any chances today. The light cinema is closed until after the expected storm surge has passed and hope to reopen later today. Fingers crossed it dosent end up even remotely like last time.

Not weather related but I've just seen a meteor!!!

Really!!? You naughty chap LOL

I'm not normally one for posting and certainly not a pessimist .... But I've got that awful feeling that this deep cold will end up much further east. Hope very much that I'm wrong.

It's the same every year LOL. Compulsive and repulsive at the same time haha.

Taken from The Daily Mash .... Funny :-) Britain to be hit by entirely typical weather 17-10-11 TEMPERATURES in the UK are going to fall sharply over the coming weeks because that is what happens at this time of year, it has been claimed. During winter snow can often reach the ground Meteorologists believe that winter, a spell of short, cold days commonly defined as a season, will be more or less exactly what you would expect. Professor Henry Brubaker of the Institute for Studies said: “Household fuel costs will rise considerably as families try to increase the temperature of their homes. “People on the verge of death may die. “Ice and snow will create icy, snowy conditions. “Your car will refuse to start. “Because it’s winter. “It’s really nothing to freak out about, unless you’re a pre-Neanderthal cave dweller who believes sunsets are caused by Gark, the angry moon god.†He added: “There’s a high probability that this winter will be followed by another sudden, weather-related phenomenon known as spring.†Housewife Nikki Hollis said: “The important thing is to stay inside, carry a flaming torch at all times and don’t be sentimental about eating your plumpest child.â€

Is it my imagination or does it look like a potential wash out from 27th for a week on the 18z? From a purely IMBY position as I am heading off to North Wales for that week :-(

Does anyone else keep windows open overnight as much as possible and then close them together with blinds and curtains during the day? I find it really helps to keep the house cooler. Must trap the night time air inside a bit!

I don't want this to end. It's been beautiful on the coast.

? Go out ? Big Bang ?

Please please Mr or Mrs Weather God..... Extend this hot weather right through the first week of August and far North enough to give me a suntan from North Wales. Amen.

Crosby weather station recorded 61mph gust earlier but they've increased in strength since. School run could be fun in the morning :-(

My car really needs rain now. It's looking quite dusty and need and decent downpour to wash it off.

Wow I wasnt expecting that! Congratulations Mr Point Ive thoroughly enjoyed reading and not fully understanding your posts these past few years. Very Best wishes to you.

Is there any record for how late in the year the Regional Threads remained open for?

Yup a few flakes floating around out there. A very pleasant and unexpected surprise!

Nice first post Ksnow :-)

I love extreme weather events but feel really sad when there are fatalities like this - and a little guilty for wanting these extremes :-(

My radar thinks it'll snow for a couple of hours over wirral :-)

Don't think we'll be getting anything more here today. Amber warning removed from meto site, just the blanket yellow warning now.

Am I remembering this correctly but all our main snowfalls this winter have happened on Fridays?

Well I think it's safe to say we are in the midst of a major event, perhaps not to be repeated for many years to come. Enjoy and remember this folks but stay safe :-)

Ahem ! Photo please !
