MB - which bits did you consider I "read right". I made a couple of statements, which ones are correct
-
Thanks very much - should have thought of that. * Hangs head in shame*

Stars/Planets alignements Candice, there is a vast body of work at disposal, it's cyciical, minimize significantly the number of difficult variables, it has been going for 5 millenia and with modern tools, producing charts for any given day is not particularly complicated. The only downer is availability of met data if the alignement does not recur often (which provides a handy reason to explain a failure...).
That's my own take on this new method, with also his liking for BFTP and RJS who also use a similar method (despite being very coy about it, I think it's what's implied in BFTP clues when I asked for an explanation) as a further indicator.
Anyhow, I'm most curious to see how all this pans out.
Take what you say re planetary influences but over on UKWW he implicitly stated that he didn't use those variables - I would have thought that they had a greater bearing than anything. Will just have to wait for him to give us his answer. Like you I 'm curious as to how it pans out but hope that he's wrong, bearing in mind where I live

Can anyone point me to freely available archive pressure charts for the UK . I can go back to 1999 on wetterzentrale but want to go back to approximately 1890 if these are available.
Posted this recently in the leathers area but thought it might more easily get noticed here

Well I've just read through all of MB's posts on UKWW and am now a bit closer to understanding what his system is (for the past that is!), it would appear that he is matching all variables at all times across the whole globe (universe?) Where they match exactly I think he's saying that the same weather will occur. Can accept that you could match in the past. But, and it's a very big BUT - how can anyone predict the exact same variables occurring on a day in the future? MB states that he is using cycles in nature, but nature encompasses a hell of a lot of different variables. I'm making a lot of assumptions and reading perhaps between the lines of his reasoning on UKWW. I'd really like some clarification of how past analogues can be extrapolated into future weather at any point in time at any point on earth - MB could you give a clearer explanation of which variables you look at? I'd be very interested to know what these are - you'd probably need a vast spreadsheet of past data to be able to do this as there must be several thousand variables to input for each day/cycle
Would the chart attached give very similar conditions to those in MB's forecast for end Jan/early Feb?

I don't think I am going mad but does she had two sets of daytime maximum temperatures on the board at the end of the broadcast, take a look here under the local tab :smiliz23:

Isn't the bottom one the windchill?

That's a fascinating read, thank you John

Well I'm going for 84 mph at Valley

The latest weekly forecast from Michael Fish is now online, and this week has seen an update to the video player - the forecast itself is now viewable in HD (if your internet connection permits), and those who want to watch on their Iphone or Ipad can now do so.
Keep an eye out in the next few weeks for further updates to the graphics within the forecast too.
Watch the forecast here:

Great news about the iPad

Thats strange according to the rain radar there is some covering over that part of Norfolk albeit light. Perhaps its echoing droplets in the clouds?
Sorry mate must be a miniscule bit of anaprop - I can see it on the radar but at the mo I'm out in the garden and can see the stars, reckon the rain won't reach Norwich much before 11.00 and then on to here by 11.30 ish
-
I believe we are gonna get good amounts of rain very soon. Its closing in rather fast and rain is now starting in the NW of the county. The bulk moving in from the SW. The whole system doesnt show any lightning detected so where thunderstorms are concerned. Who knows.
There is no rain in NW Norfolk, in fact it's a good few hours away yet
-
Heathrow airport has only recorded 48mm during the last 12 weeks. My location has only recorded 15mm since June 1st!
Some of this rainfall fell during heavy showers/thunderstorms so your going to find quiet large differences locally. For example my parents who live just 8 miles W of Peterborough have seen nearly double my amount because they were right under a heavy shower back in June.
East of you and we've only recorded 9mm since 1st June - we have missed absolutely everything!
-
This has happened again? Any chance someone could look into it, heavy rain over me this morning, not 1 alert.
Has happened to me again as well, no alerts at all today
-
I'm going to dover castle on friday , is it going to be ruined?
I think it's in ruins already
-
Cheers Cookie, Recon are now leaving Alex and these where found on the way out, just to the NW of the really heavy convection.
Could be instrument error, all a bit strange really, If they are real and NHC are probably interrigating them atm, them I would expect a quick update on the NHC site in the next hr.
The first and it could possibly be a nasty one too
-
Excellent!

Sorry to bring up an old(ish) thread but I just want to point out that the netweather site works perfectly in the HTC browser, but it would be a bit nicer to have a netweather app on one of my homescreens so that I don't need to go searching on the web. This is only really a problem when I'm in Cumbria where there are often slow mobile internet speeds, making browsing the web more of a chore.
Netweather site works fine on iPhone and iPad. If u bookmark it and put on home screen it will look and work just like an app

Understood T.M.
Therefore, I'd be interested in the amount of CO2 and SO2 emitted from this volcano in comparison to 10 years worth of aircraft emissions. Groups such as Plane Stupid would do well to realise that aircraft emissions are something so miniscule in the grand scale of things. I fail to see their problem, actually.
Aircraft emissions are tiny compared to any volcanic blast.
I beg to differ http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/

Is this Katla?

Latest VACC charts out too: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/aviation/vaac/data/VAG_1271569746.png
The nearest is "Eystri Skogar" from that site (or hoever it' spelled)

I know what volcanos smell like i have visited several here is a pic of me stood in one jumping as a gust of wind blew the hot air from a vent onto my leg the volcano is the Solfatara Volcano RIGHT IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF NAPLES considered more of a danger to naples than Versuvius
Yes, I've also visited Solfatara and it stinks to high heaven, but that is right at ground level and on top of the fumaroles, no way can you smell sulphur from the Icelandic volcano in England.
-
Am bemused by the number of people saying they can smell something in the air - that's impossible in southern england - more likely the drains - lol
-
burst of lightening has been observed over the volcano, it is thought that significant eruption may be occurring - courtesy of @wxchannel on twitter.

That's brill - thanks for sharing. Is that unusual in Cairo?
