Snowy Easterly

been shocking here this week, cool and very wet, what a horrible birthday i had yesterday i got soaked

surprise surprise the weather for my birthday couldn't be more different from that chart, goes to show GFS FI is pointless and should be scrapped

what a disgusting, miserable turgid mid summer's evening, it is my birthday tomorrow, me and my family went out for dinner earlier and we got soaking wet walking to a restaurant, it felt like the end of october, tomorrow looks dreadful too with more cloud and showers and a high of a pathetic 16c no words can describe this vileness, i bet next weeks 3 day pleasant snap gets downgraded too

nothing to get excited about IMO next week might be nice for a couple of days then its back to atlantic or northerlies again

people want more though, a few cold snowy days out of 90 is not enough, even if it was notable

true there were severe gales in december, even here, but im talking from IMBY really like most probably do, and it was mild for long periods of the winter, blossom was out in early january, we had a few days of snow and cold in feb and that was about it. the second half of feb was about 15c 16c pretty much the same as it is right now, what a joke i just hope we don't see a repeat of last winter but i fear we may, though i am a pessimist

and so will this winter be, as it will probably be mild and dry again zzzzzzzzz, roll on next summer, actually that will be the same as this one, wet and cool

god sakes, with every new run coming out the azores high stays further and further away, in winter most of these northerlies downgrade, as the azores high can't wait to ridge in, but not in summer, it looks horrible for my birthday next wednesday Edit northerly doesn't last long but typically wednesday is the coolest day

i hope the GFS is onto something with the azores high ridging in, the UKMO and GEM are awful with a horrible northerly just in time for my birthday next wednesday

daily express reckons this will last till december, they might be right for once, as come december it will be dry and mild again with high pressure no where near greenland its actually pretty muggy today but yet again a lack of sunshine

cloudy again today same old same old, though its a bit brighter

agree, also viewing the charts is annoying as there is high pressure galore to the west, south, north and east of the uk but we are stuck under pointless low pressure giving days and days of cloudy drizzly rain, no excitement in the weather at all, i cannot remember the the last time i heard thunder or saw lightning here my crops are so behind this year due to this turgid cool cloudy crap, i don't think some of them will make it, but i suppose if we have our summer in september and october like usual then they will be ready by Halloween, better late than never

yet again another pointless summers day with weak fronts bringing patchy drizzly crap, at least if we had some decent rain it would be fine but this weather is so boringly rubbish, next week is my birthday and it looks cool and cloudy with a horrible northerly of some kind, that brick wall like mid atlantic ridge is so stubborn it is just so obvious that the greenland high will disappear in autumn and the azores high will return to set up shop for the winter again. so its a double blow for us

the south east hasn't escaped, its raining at wimbledon but its only light patchy stuff, i never saw any posts on here saying we would have light patchy rain this week, its always "plenty more rain and showers, summer remains on hold" etc the radar had of band rain over my area today yet it was only spitting, i bet this is case for many other parts of the country too, of course a few places might of seen some heavier bursts but thats not the majority of the country i now have to go and water my allotment

no rain here again today, im no expert but i knew it wouldn't be as bad as people feared, i see many posts from people saying it will be unsettled with plenty of rain and showers the models never looked that wet to me, yet again people go over the top when they see synoptic s with a bit of low pressure over us

how unlucky are we, the whole of europe is under high pressure next week while we have that little low slap bang over us, im not bothered if it rains i just hope its not cool, what will temps be like ? the GFS charts on netweather are not working

nothing here, when the midlands gets storms im too far south and when the south east gets storms im too far north

at least its not chilly for once though when its cloudy and dull

exactly the 06z showed 20c in central areas for tomorrow and now the 12z shows 17c, so things can change at very very short notice

WOW, i know this is extremely unlikely as its deep FI, but it would be a very nice birthday for me

im only a novice but how are scotland and northern england getting all the rain and storms and the south misses out, our heat is coming up from the south ?

for god sakes tomorrow will be my most hated weather, a potential nice warm day will be spoiled by an annoying legacy of cloud from a weak front, and temps might only get up to 17c instead of 21c, now i see friday and saturday we have our normal windy low showing up again

it was here, many days we had temps in double digits, most of feb was very mild apart from the first week, in fact feb was not that much cooler than it has been this month, second half of december was also stupidly mild i agree to some extent that we shouldn't be surprised by mildness in winter, but it should still snow at some point in winter

no chance of 30c here though, even though im not that far away from london probably 25c

its been pretty bad down here this spring/summer, but i feel sorry for you folk up in scotland you had a mild winter, and it was more milder at times last december than it has been this month, even here we have had a few days of 10-13c this month which was colder than xmas day last year
