  1. I may be in a minority with this, but I don't actually mind the shorter days myself, and as someone who is not the heaviest of sleepers, this time of year is actually preferable to me compared to the summer months, and the longer nights and more comfortable temperatures in the house mean I usually sleep better and longer in winter.
  2. Still a really lively wind here. Not as strong as early this morning, but sufficiently strong to need a bit of effort to open the door against the wind. Looks like we may continue to see gusts touching gale force into this evening for a time.
  3. A drier interlude around the middle of the day here, but it's been a dark amd blustery afternoon since with a continual feed of showers with gusty winds.
  4. What a wild night that was, proper house creaking gusts of wind sustained over a few hours. Wind speeds peaked at around 06:00, but have since moderated, but still very gusty at times and have had squally rain lashing against the windows over the past hour or so. Glad I haven't had to venture out this morning.
  5. Wind really howling and whistling here and some really potent gusts. It woke me up a couple of hours ago and decided no point trying to get back to sleep. Wow, strongest gust yet just now, properly creaked the house.
  6. Gusty winds throughout the night here, dry at the moment and a mild start, 8.6C. A blustery day coming up and then winds strengthening further overnight.
  7. Early rain cleared from here around mid morning, then was a reasonable day after, just the briefest of light showers around mid afternoon. Not as mild today, highest temperature was at midnight, 10.8C. Back to single digit temperatures by this afternoon though.
  8. Temperature reached 13.4C here today, extremely mild. Overcast throughout, but nothing in the way of any real meaningful rain, one or two light showers which barely wet the ground.
  9. A few bits and pieces of rain over the last hour or two here, but barely enough to get the ground properly wet, the Welsh Hills doing a good job of gobbling up the worst of it.
  10. Overcast, but dry here at the moment, but there has been an odd light shower this morning. Very mild, currently 12.3C.
  11. Another reasonable day here to round off the weekend, dry again during daylight hours, although looks like it will be downhill overnight and into tomorrow with rain moving in. Rather mild again today with temperatures into double figures, a max of 11.6C.
  12. Yeah, it was a classic case of being punished for not taking our chances early on on the season with the one nil defeats against Fulham and Wolves being prime examples. We should have won both of those games. We are racking up a decent run of clean sheets now as well. It was quite amusing see some of the Newcastle players whinging about lack of respect after that game. I think they assumed they could just turn up to beat us. As you say, the future is looking very bright for once.
  13. Yes, certainly not out of the game for something wintry as we head into the Christmas period, things currently looking quite average temperature wise, neither exceptionally mild or cold. It's a reasonable start to the day here, mostly cloudy with a few brighter breaks, but dry.
  14. I reckon the points deduction will be halved or even down to 3 points following the appeal. Not that it seems to have mattered much as we're flying. People are saying the points deduction motivated the turn in form, but to be fair, things had started to turn around before that. Spurs away next, that will be a good test of how far we've progressed.
  15. A decent day today, even though a little too mild for my liking, max temp 11.2C. Plenty of sunshine and a nice sunset, certainly beats a day of rain.
  16. Yeah, no signs of a sustained cold spell at this stage in the reliable time frame. However, there is always the chance of some brief polar maritime shots from the NW in between the milder wetter periods, which can provide short lived falling snow for our part of the world at least, if the cold interlude is deep enough. No use for those South of the M4 corridor though, so I wouldn't go posting this in the mod thread
  17. Yes, I fear the worst I'm afraid, he was on here during all seasons posting regularly until the back end of last year. Really miss his input and banter.
  18. A reasonable day today today after some early showers, a high of 6.8C. Looks like the metoffice have underestimated how low the temperatures will get this evening/tonight. Down to 0.4C here and still dropping and can see reports of sub zero temps already around the region.
  19. Some really gusty winds during the night here, some proper window creaking gusts. It didn't seem all that different to the evening before in terms of strength. Much calmer this morning.
  20. Yeah, outside the Red Lion I believe. I've read that it caught the back of someone's car as it came down. There were certainly some vicious gusts a couple of miles down the road here.
  21. The warning was definitely justified, some trees down locally, including one at least across the main road.
