  1. *Stormforce~beka* Bless you Becka , reminds me of the old adage Not sure what "until summer has fully arrived" means
  2. Does any one else find this somewhat offensive, & undermining ones intellect https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/articles/crgylwnpz91o Perhaps I need to explain to Simon King that perception is based on "feels like" , a forecast metric that the BBC use in their "spot" forecast Temp:10c with a feels like 6c, for example If the temperature is marginally above average for the the month of April how does it compare with the "feels like" temp , as most people deem a good weather day by how it feels, and not what the mercury shows I am greeted by Postie every day more often than not .. "nice day today" , "oo hold fire a sec mate . let me just check the current weather stats for our locale .. I'll come back in a minute"
  3. I think I'll start naming "storms" myself , providing something a little more commensurate with likely impacts imby .. Kathleen shall thus be named "The Cherry Blossom Shredder"
  4. Weather Enthusiast91 Aye a bit blowy down south Not very often I am in the centre of 967MB LP that is n't rattling through Very odd
  5. NEVES SCREAMER Spring has sprung earlier here mate, I have n't been counting, but for sure Feb-24 has had more shorts and Tee days than the combined July and Aug of 23. Sunny day and no wind here yesterday , 8c at the front facing north and 18c at the back in my south facing sun trap, the heat of the sun was weird for Feb , very warm , so much so I had a couple of hours of shorts only sun bathing ... that is a first for Feb .. ever
  6. Rollo yes the snow shovel that I bought for the 2018 BFTE may well yet get a christening
  7. Lovely July / Aug 23 synoptics today very wet & a nagging Nor'easter here The only difference - temps .. Jul-23 18c feels like 14c, Jan-24 7c feels like 3c
  8. Probably the worst 24/36hr spell coming up of the "winter" thus far, for me from tonight and through Monday, Heavy Rain , gusty F6 and a "feels like" temp barely above Oc
  9. A quiet day here by comparison to Isha, 50+ gusts as opposed to 70+ Ramping up a tad through the wee small hours though
  10. Some freight train gusts hitting here now, expanded on Polar Martime's advice , & put dinner and heating on earlier just in case the power goes down , that said pretty resilient here based on previous high wind events... but you never know
  11. Map Summary stats (current highest mean and gusts) in this instance refer to Capel Curig Hovering over the map summary wind speeds highlights the location on the map
  12. Of sorts although Isha a little deeper on 12z @957mb currently at 959mb or thereabouts, and we have the upper trough (outline triangles) embedded between Surface warm front and surface cold front Like you .. I'm not a huge fan of the Fax Charts other than providing a general overview of the next few days and a comparison of previous fax charts for the same time stamp .... nigh on useless for real time tracking as the update time interval is too great, we're down to observational data for tracking unfolding weather events like Isha
  13. Looking at the Wind flow for St. Bees Head , winds peak from the SSW around 2100hrs (ahead of the CF) by midnight the winds have eased a notch and veered WSW (behind the CF) (GFS Data) Upon cross referencing with MetO Data , suggestive of peak winds earlier - 1900/2000 hrs
  14. Fairly common for my neck of the woods , although seeing F11 on the inshore waters forecast is "quite rare" .. battened down now, winds gusting up at F9+ I would anticipate Isha's cold front will be quite an aggressive feature, more than likely responsible for some of the inland peak winds Edit: Added link to Torro, in keeping with Eagle Eye's detailed & informative post https://www.torro.org.uk/forecast
