All the dry very calm weather of late is helping to retain leaf cover on the trees, and the sunshine is boosting the storage of sugar the key recipe for brilliant colour. Liking the outlook alot, no gales of even strong winds on the cards for the foreseeable, and the return of dry sunny chilly conditions, perhaps our first air frost, which will do wonders for the autumn colours in the Lake District. Could be a cracking half term week for anyone wanting to see natures autumn display this year, traditionally the last week of October is the peak time for autumn colour, after the first frosts and just before the leaves give up and wither or fall to the ground, In some years early autumn gales strip the trees bear, this year I have a feeling they will simply wither away in a quiet retreat clinging on for dear life.
As long as they hold on til the middle of November when i'm up

I'm thinking the stuff around le harve will develop nicely that's my guess with downpours developing ahead even more so inland to affect London area before movin off towards Suffolk way. Fingers crossed people. P.s don't worry Kent people I'm sure there will be some excitement down your way
It's growing in size pretty quickly too

That stuff over the Channel Islands is kicking out quite a few lightning strikes now according to the radar. Met Office has an amber warning for thunderstorms over London for rush hour.
We might get lucky again.

So, round one (almost) out of the way. Round two looks like it's bubbling up in the Bay of Biscay.

Hearing regular rumbles now.

That 'thing' floating up the North Sea now is a monster!

London about to be engulfed if the radar is right!

Hi there and welcome. Interesting question you raised and I must admit I've never given the scenario much thought until now. If I were to make an educated guess I would say every bit of heat counts when building storms but also remember there are a lot of storms that develop elsewhere and some travel over london. Does the added heat from a busy city help? I would have to say it cant hurt. I'd be interested to hear other peoples thoughts on this who may have a better insight in such things than myself.
Thanks!

Question from a newbie regarding Central London. Does the urban heat island effect have the opposite effect in these kind of situations than it does in the winter?
Whereas in the winter the slightly higher temps can have an effect on snowfall; at times like these can it encourage more intense storms?
Thanks

I am closely watching the system moving up from the north of France. Any chance we might have a repeat of last night?
It's started moving more rapidly but seems to be leaving the lively stuff over land. Would love it to be otherwise
-
Quite a few of the storms in Northern France today will be surface based, these sometimes don't really survive the channel crossing. I wouldn't rule anything out though.
thanks

newbie, amateur question; the stuff over le havre now looks as though it's grown pretty quickly and smaller bits and pieces seem to be bubbling over the channel...is the large one over la havre likely to die as it crosses the channel or strengthen, and could it affect london later?
thanks
-
watching the radar animation for the last hour is that coming from the nne?...is that thames streamer direction? Am i even asking this in April?
-
I am banking on Central London to receive consistent snow from 1pm tomorrow (while we still have working banks that is...)
That is my guesstimate and all of my predictions have survived any independent stress test - just like Cyprus
down your way tomorrow for the Daily Mail Schools Finals
Is anyone else suprised by the fact that the Sellafield Power station has apparently been closed down this afternoon due to to the weather ?
not after speaking to my day who lives a few miles down the coast from windscale- he said earlier today was the worst weather he's ever been out in (he's a northerner in his 60's, to give it some perspective)
-
big thick fluffy flakes in the city, and lots of them!
-
if only that wind would shift to the east
-
It looks like London is in an unfortunate dry zone, too far south for the trains of ppn coming in from NE and too far north for the channel ppn
full blown bona fide blizzard in the city of london right now- heaviest i've seen in london all winter
-
sleeting in south east london- more snow in it than rain
-
Anybody with NET WEATHER EXTRA switch to traditional easy to see the stronger PPN.. Intresting radar returns coming in now
i've been watching the blinkin thing since 11 this morning and i'm certain it hasn't changed since then!
probably need to step away from the screen
-
moderate snow outside the office window- 9 floors up facing east, in the City
-
Very light snow in Peckham Rye SE15
-
i keep reading on twitter that by the time the ppn reaches us properly temps will have dropped again
-
thanks- i guess not then

FWIW my post wasn't an attempted dig at anyone. It was just a hopeless attempt at being funny, and I thought Jodansgang took it in that spirit.
My bad for going off topic. Back to the models.
