130mm in Fuxton.
Where's that?
-
Others have probably asked this question a lot so I'm sorry.
I'm 18 soon and I'm going to treat myself to a weather station. My budget is only £130 so any suggestions would be much appreciated?
Regards, Shaun.
I've got myself a WMR80 from Oregon Scientific; works a treat. Only £100!

Sounds a bit like the French Alps? Try somewhere near Thones; it often gets up to 25-30°C during summer, whilst winters aren't as severe as higher up in the mountains, but there are a few falls of 6-12 inches each year I believe.
Annecy (near Thones) in Summer:
Annecy in Winter:
Ooooo... yes please! Regarding snowfall, when I go down a few miles into Stanley and Consett, there are massive amounts of snow, if I get hit by an inch, they get hit by 3!

that is pretty depressing,.........................i hate the british climate,obstinately temperate,in colour terms a dull shade of grey..................give me some extremes please,give me a mountains of snow in winter then a desert sun in summer,,i genuinely think the british climate has a profound effect on our psychology,ie it is depressing,i think it contributes to our high suicide rate in europe.The north west pacific with its similar climate has a high suicide rate also..........our wet,often cloudy,monotonous weather is bad for the brain,amogst other things
Really? You could always tell us what you think, and what would be your perfect climate!
I have to say, one thing I particularly like about NE England is that it is much more capable of getting heavy snowfall than other parts of the UK! 6 inches is certainly a good fall of snow, but not all that uncommon in the North East. It has happened around half a dozen times here since 1990.
EDIT: 1991, 2001, 2004, 2005, 2010, for example, possibly 1994, 1996? Not sure about the last 2.
I agree; we here in NE England have brilliant amounts of snowfall, when others don't!

Update now online:
Much cooler December, seems good. Not much into it yet though...
-
It's not the official winter forecast (that's out in october), it's the usual long range update which occurs every month, and no we certainly don't team up with PWS!!
It'll be online in the next hour.
Ah... right, I know where that is. Take half a degree off in the North East, thanks.
-
Are you sure it's released today?
-
im assuming net weather will be making the forecast,but i think positive wetaher solutions team up with them lol
LOL.
Eeesh... If they say an early winter, with record cold and snow in November and December, I would jump around every single spot in Durham. I don't care if January and February are 15C and scorching. I just want the time between early November and Late December to be Cold and Snowy. I don't like late Winter, just early Winter. ~
Random Rant Over...

May sound a bit stupid, but who will be making this forecast...?
-
Good stuff Lilt', I think we can safely say that we are ahead of last year? :lol:
In snow, yes. On Ice, it seems much more varied with most sides of the arctic seeing Ice cover.
Western Siberia and the Himalayas have a lot more, Eastern Canada, Alaska and Iceland have considerably less aswell.

Been scanning around 200 full pages of the Regional North East Cold Spell discussion from the most recent winter. Honestly, I should on NetWeather ages ago. It has just wet my appetite for snow. Alot of snow. Loadsa of snow. If it's as good as last year, I'll have 5 paragraphs of excitement every single post.
Now, I'm just waiting for the stuff...
-
Incredible, for September at the Gorms'!
Hopefully a sign of a nice early winter...
-
Search Nenthead instead. Typo from me :o
Hehe. Okay.
Where in Teesdale do you live, I can't imagine I live more than half an hour from you.
-
Pretty sure we had this conversion a year or so ago. I believe results (rough agreed!) were as following.
Snowiest
England City Durham
England Town Alston
England Village Nenethead.
Scotland City Aberdeen
Scotland Town Aviemore
Scotland Village Tomintoul
Not sure about NI and Wales. I do remember people going on and on about what makes a city
I've never been prouder to be a Durham Citizen
Now to google search 'Nenethead'...

Dream winter scenario:
December 19: Easterly from Russia moves inland...
December 20: Finland, Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic get hit with up to 150cm in places, with record falls throughout Central Europe.
December 21: Cold bands of air left behind give record low temperatures for them nations aswell! Southern Sweden, Denmark and the Low Countries get smashed by heavy snowfall.
December 22: Severe cold temperatures throughout Mainland Europe, Northern France gets hit aswell, Norway smashed by more record snowfall.
December 23: High pressure moves into Britain, and leaves record low temperatures, -30C in Tulloch Bridge and at Ptarmigan, on CairngormMtn. Cold continues with -50C in some parts of Central Norway, along with record French snowfall.
December 24: High pressure splits across the UK and finally gives our first snow of the season! Heaviest in Central, Northern and Eastern Parts. With Shap getting 2.5m in 12 hours and Leeds getting 1.1m, London gets over half a metre, and the coldest, snowiest winter storm ever is recorded.
December 25: Low pressure moves across to Ireland, and gives most of Ireland, morning snow, as the UK and Ireland wake up to Christmas with a Winter Wonderland.
Oh... and make the rest of the winter as mild as you want!
Not too much too ask, is it?
Oh, and one last thing, when referring to this, please call it 'Beasterly'. Thanks.

9.8 for me thanks.

If you click on the recent site activity on that site you can see the name of the person as Arjan Sangha. It certainly is an interesting read.
It says his name is Thomas Rosetti at the bottom, he's updated it again. I can't see recent site activity
Night anyway!

Just came across this, what do you's think? Actually made it quite easy to understand!
-
I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but if you zoom in really, really close....
-
The build up has started now.
