  1. Would a player be entitled to a free drop if their ball landed in one of these cracks ?
  2. And you don't have the decency to include one snow warning !
  3. The met office need to improve this monstrosity of a warning page - It's about as useful as an inflatable dartboard
  4. Question for Hurricane experts I noticed on latest NHC forecast Franklin has a 30% chance of becoming a tropical storm again after going Ex tropical If this happens will it maintain the same name and how unusual is this ? Thanks in advance
  5. I concur Dancer, I remember waiting enthusiastically as a teenager in the late 70's for "Weather For Farmers" late forecast on BBC2 - Now we can watch these excellent and very educational Met Office 10 day outlooks on demand.
  6. Question for people with AirCon units - How do you vent the warm air from the unit to the outside with the type of windows most people in the UK have ? Thanks
  7. Had a request from work today to add a user account to the Unix server for a new employee - Last name - Bartlett - I am considering if I should just use first name in this instance !
  8. Only once has a tropical storm made landfall in southern California back in 1939 This is a great read Why don’t tropical storms or hurricanes ever hit California? WWW.FOXWEATHER.COM While the Golden State can occasionally get hit by moisture-laden remnants of a tropical storm or hurricane in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, getting a direct strike from an actual storm is exceedingly rare there – records...
  9. Opening a 'Heat Haters' thread on the forum has produced record breaking heat. I think we need to open a 'Snow Haters' thread for Winter !
  10. Temperature in Brum was falling steadily from 34 to 24 and now it has stopped for last two hours - Is this because higher uppers have moved in ?
  11. What's the best website to use for an accurate up to date temperature for your location ? Thanks
  12. Do you remember what the models were suggesting 7 days prior to the Lytton 49.5C ?
  13. Has anybody got any recommendations for a decent evaporative air cooler ? Thanks in advance
  14. It is realy difficult to have faith in UK government advice when only 5 days ago they recommended that people over 70 should avoid cruises ! Now they have U-turned and gone from 'Herd Immunity' to lockdown Valuable days were wasted by there indecision Most people knew Cheltenham should have been cancelled In the previous briefing they used the excuse of the WHO decalaration of pandemic to change course Valuable days were wasted and many of us will pay with our lives
  15. Surely the Diamond Princess is the best indicator of mortality rate All on board were tested 697 positive 7 deaths Critical has dropped from 30 to 15 Average age 58 33% were 70 or older This not to bad considering the age group - however they all obvioulsy have had the best available care But has virus mutated since ?

But results from the cruise ship Diamond Princess...
  16. Germany seems welll prepared to deal with this UK only has 5000 ventilators and no company that manufacters them Souce FT.com
  17.

  18. I do not like this governments policy of 'Herd Immunity' It appears they are wiiling to sacrifice the old and the weak for economic reasons Take procative measures when you are ahead of the curve, don't allow mass gatherings and close schools China has proven that containment is possible with extreme measures - Why can't we do the same ? Looks like the premier league is finished now anyway - Maybe they are waiting for the herds to make decisions for them
  19. Surely we can use the Diamond Princess cruise ship as a good case study to examine fatality rates because we have an accurate number for infected persons 691 confirmed infected as of Feb 25th 6 Deaths as of today Also it appears the vast majority of infected are aged 60 and over Does anybody know how many of infected have recovered or are in critcal condition ?
