Model Moans, Ramps and Banter
stevofunnelcl replied to Polar Maritime's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
There used to be a time, when it was normal winter weather, no fuss In this modern 'snowflake' world, those times are truly gone Listen, it's still 9c out there, so much for turning significantly colder, it is nowhere near cold enough for anything wintry The forecast has been downgraded from heavy blustery snow showers to isolated sleet / snow showers for Friday I am going back to sleep !! -

woohoo, nice loud clap of thunder, my first thunder of 2016 as the cell moves north-east away from here, every lightning strike is making the power fail for about 3 seconds I'm so glad i invested in a UPS, so the computer, monitor, and modem stay up when the power fails -

Tropical Storm Karl
stevofunnelcl replied to summer blizzard's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
the latest sat pictures is interesting tomorrows rain is showing up to the south-west approaches, with a band of cloud arcing back into Karl. Karl still has time to become a hurricane, before it hits much colder water, and then baroclinic effects, it's going to become a post-tropical hurricane -

How wonderful, during these hot nights, where sleep is going to be nearly impossible The air fills with bonfire smoke, so i have a choice of closing up all the windows, and getting even hotter, or breathing that in Man, winter can't arrive fast enough Please no more December nights with 17c minimums like we had last year -

Once again, masses of strikes in Bay of Biscay, i think all uk storm chasers could chip in, we buy a boat, since we've got more chance of chasing storms over the ocean, than land- 2,726 replies

i check the real-time lightning map, so far all lightning strikes are over the ocean Just to the west of Ireland, and also way out to sea in the Atlantic Be interesting to see how this all evolves now Here, locally, more clouds around now, which is making it feel even more humid It doesn't reach 30c often round these parts- 2,726 replies

Very frustrating to see all this potential going to waste, as we sit in our 'outside ovens' Scotland take all the snow during the winter, now they are stealing our storms as well I blame that Sturgeon person (sorry couldn't find the ranting thread)- 2,726 replies

Southern England & East Anglia are out of the warning area. It's very broad yellow area going right up to the northern isles of Scotland !! A hard chase, because where are the storms going to be? Maybe initial development in Wales, with storms moving NE With no warning down South, i guess they expect it all to be home-grown storms then, no chance of Imports- 2,726 replies

Certainly not used to temperatures that high around these parts, usually the sea breeze would kick in. I may climb into my oven, it could be cooler in there -

Agreed with some posts in Model thread. All areas are not getting wall to wall sunshine for the next 5 days Here today, in North Devon, it's been grey overcast, and not showing signs of brightening up yet Grey & Muggy here -

Going from recent experience, the south-west tends to miss out a lot. I may head over somewhere in the south-east if things look good for Wednesday I've learn from past experience, during intense heatwaves, never stay in a non-air conditioned room
