  1. Heard nowt here. Just had a 0.2mm from a small shower, that's been it. Very disappointing in terms of rainfall. In fact, if you go back to Frday & Saturday's forecast, you could easily have written of Sunday and Monday, when they actually turned out to be pretty good, especially today. I'm rather surprised at the lack of shower activity that is spiraling around the LP, its very sparse.
  2. Nice view of a shower appearing on my cam. I'm not sure we'll get anything spectacular though.
  3. Something heavy heading my way, as can be seen on my cam. No electrical activity in it though.
  4. 7mm fell yesterday, and a further 1.4mm since midnight. There's some decent convection going on today, with some dark bases on clouds out to the East - hoping for something later on. Temp: 13.9°C - Hum: 69% - Dew: 8.3°C - Bar: 1002.81hPa - Wind: E ~ SSE @ 8mph.
  5. When we had that burst of heavier rain earlier, the forecast showed no rain for here. Now its showing heavy rain from now until 2am, yet the radar clearly shows quite a large dry area. Yesterday and today's forecasts have been absolute calamities of the highest kind.
  6. It's raining quite heavy now. I have the windows wide open, as there's not a breath of wind. It's nice to hear it beating down on the shed roofs.
  7. Look at the Netweather rainfall total charts: http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=news;storyid=8134;sess= lol - I don't think so!
  8. That next batch of rain is slowly losing its intensity. An utterly terrible forecast once again - washout has been non-existent.
  9. So, just 1hr 20mins of rain, and it has been dry since. It looks to stay dry for the remainder of the afternoon. Certainly not what was forecast.
  10. Had a light shower about an hour ago, now it's just fine, light drizzle. It's ironic that the last day of the month brings in heavy rain, otherwise it would have been the driest month I had recorded on this station. Temp: 11.9°C - Hum: 79% - Dew: 8.4°C - Bar: 988.44hPa - Wind: SE ~ ESE @ 8mph.
  11. Hi lettice I use an IP camera, then use IPTimelapse software (paid) to connect to the camera. It has tons of settings and features, such as adding your wunderground weather to the overlay. I just set it to capture an image every 15 seconds between 00:00 and 11:59, it then creates the video for it at midnight, and automatically uploads it to my site. It took a while for the sun to make an appearance here today, but now it has, it pushed the temp to 15.5°C Temp: 14.6°C - Hum: 59% - Dew: 6.6°C - Bar: 1011.32hPa - Wind: SSE @ 10mph. If anybody accesses my site, either give your cookies a clear, or CTRL +F5 to bypass your cache. I updated the colours and font today, due to some a-hole copying everything from my site, to his.
  12. Timelapse came out well today, especially 3pm > https://www.warehamwx.co.uk/cumulus/timelapse.htm
  13. Well, another day of missing every shower, despite showers covering almost every square inch of the country. On the upside, i'm only two dry days away from a record of the most dry days in a month, hopefully beating July 2016.
  14. Plenty of convection going on here, trust me. It might not be rampant, but it's going on! lol A shower has cropped up to the West of me:
  15. That's why I said maybe later. In these sorts of set ups, it is usually late afternoon/early evening that something either crops up close by, or makes its way here. 850hPa winds show a slight steering from NE to SW. View from my webcam:
  16. There's been some nice clouds about again, but no showers. This unsettled spell is turning out to be quite settled here - until maybe later.
  17. Blocked certainly doesn't mean cool. I swear some people just look at the isobars and automatically think that because the are coming from the East/Southeast, that it means cool or cold. There's been plenty of consistency with regards to average, or slightly above average temps next week.
  18. Ground frost this morning, temp got down to 0.2°C Cloudy at the moment, with the odd glimpse of sunshine. Temp: 9.2°C - Hum: 59% - Dew: 1.6°C - Bar: 1019.37hPa - Wind: N ~ NE @ 7mph. It looks like any chance of showers here, will be later this afternoon. Got this pecker back int he garden again: I found it in my pond a few months back. I have since netted most of it to try and stop it, but it keeps returning.
  19. Looked good at around 8pm: Then it ends up like this: I hate Northerlies in Winter, this just makes it worse.
  20. According to the radar, it was a direct hit from a shower, but barely a couple of drops fell, it didn't even wet the ground.
  21. I'm expecting a nice timelapse when the video gets uploaded at midnight. May get lucky with some bigger clouds if those showers make it here.
