Hi all, John has put together a quick video looking at the prospects of snowfall on Monday with me doing a voiceover, you can take a look at it here:
Nothing there appears to be blank.Oh hang on lets try in IE instead of FF. Ok fine in internet explorer but doesn't work in Firefox.

The calendars won't be on general sale this year, we're doing a small print run with enough for the winners and internal use here at NW, but that's it I'm afraid.
Not sell enough last year?

Not a sausage here in winter 2008. (Unless you could seeing some vague tinys spec's of dandruff at 2am snow)
But the winter is young and my hopes are high! Prozac is on order and all will be well.
Please Note: Prozac can only be ordered for use with depression towards the weather. NOT towards the mother in law coming for christmas day ...

As every, any feedback you can give will be welcome. Hopefully you have found that the sound is a bit better in this one, and we've also overlaid relevant charts..
Volume miles better! ;-D

I will have to watch this later when I can connect to my stereo system. Even with the sound on 100% It is still very low on the laptop speakers.
Yea that was my issue.
-
Just bumping this
Oooh a chatroom!! Watching video now
Ok have given up after 10 minutes. It sure is way over my head. Only other issue I would say would be the volume. But otherwise seems nicely presented.
Any view of some beginners video's coming out?

Yes SFB - the final competition for this year's selection was held last week, and we now have the full set for a 2009 nw.tv calendar - announcements will follow
Thank you my dear! I'll save me pennies ready ...

Indeed, the NHC said it could well be the smallest tropical cyclone on record! It truly is very tiny!
Marco has now made landfall as a 55kt tropical storm. Dissipation will be rapid due to the size of the storm, as the rugged terrain quickly tears apart the small LLC. A very interesting storm, will report back if anything is confirmed about it actually being a record braker for how small it is.
Shame it wasn't out in the atlantic to see it become a hurricane. Would love to have seen the changes in it.

A tropical depression has formed from invest 96L which has emerged in the Bay of Campeche. TD13 consists of a small LLC with a deep but limited coverage of convection. This tiny system has potential to strengthen into a tropical storm before landfall, as outflow is good and sea temps warm. However, what TD13 is lacking is time. The depression will make landfall on the coast of Mexico tomorrow, so a peak of 40kts is all NHC are forecasting. The depression is small, so will respond to favourable condtions quickly, so the forecast of 40kts is more than achieveable.
TD13 is the small circular blob to the left of the image:
How extrodinary! Possibly the smallest TS i've ever seen!Looks more like a MCS than a TS.

I don't know weather it's worth starting a thread for this, but seems it got named.http://www.wunderground.com/tropical/tracking/at200812.html
And it also seems come Saturday it will be knocking on our door! ... http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at2.shtml...?large#contents

I would imagine we can't be far off. I think September is the most active month I read somewhere. And the end of season is the 31st November I think.

Sounds like the people in the stranded boat are all safe! The coastguard has heard from them and is sending out a tug to rescue them.

Then go on a flight with the hurricane hunters!!

Strap in and enjoy your cyber flight.

amazing picture in glaveston now it's in the eye of the storm
Anyone got any pictures of this?
-
Good question, I don't think it will make landfall until 9am uk time ?, Is this right ?.
Anywhen between 5am-9am at a guess. Sure it will be confirmed later on in another 6 hours or so.
