  1. Morning all!

     

    A couple of heavy isolated showers coming into work, you know the ones, double speed windscreen-wiper jobs.

     

    Looks like a dry spell for a few hours and then it really chucks it down latter:

    now to save me some time

     

    july

     

    1st to 7th It was very warm or hot in many places during this period with Heathrow reaching 30.5 °C on the 5th. Thunderstorms early on 3rd over Wales spread to other parts of England and Wales over succeeding days, with some heavy downpours in places. Cardiff received 67 mm in 12 hours ending 09 GMT on the 4th. High pressure gave way to low pressure in the south-west approaches, which then slowly transferred to the southern part of the North sea by the 7th.8th to 16th A cool unsettled spell ensued as low pressure over the North sea moved away and another depression off western Scotland on the 10th moved to the North sea by the 11th, before migrating to Scandinavia. The 9th and 10th were quite wet as associated fronts crossed England and Wales. There were frequent showers some heavy with thunder, but these became more scattered towards the end of the period. Mumbles (south Wales) reported a gust of 52 knots on the 11th. A shallow low over the south-east on the 14th was followed by a weak ridge on the 15th and 16th, with zero Celsius being recorded at Sennybridge (Powys) overnight.17th to 20th A wet spell especially the 17th/18th with heavy thundery rain in many places as a low moved from the south-west approaches to the North sea. As fronts stalled over East Anglia and the Midlands, some high totals were recorded. At Keyworth (Notts) 96 mm fell in 15 hours ending 09 GMT on the 18th causing considerable local flooding. Weybourne (Norfolk) received 69 mm the same day, 41 mm falling in 3 hours that morning.21st to 24th After a cool start it became warm with good sunny periods in most places, although north-west areas had more cloud and scattered light showers from time to time.25th to 31st Hot sunny weather prevailed for much of the time as a weak ridge of high pressure covered the region. Any local mist or fog patches soon cleared away after sunrise. It was very hot at times in the south and on the 28th and 29th temperatures hovered around 32 °C in the London area. From the 29th onwards northern and western areas were affected by occasional outbreaks of light rain or drizzle in association with a weak cold front edging southwards.

     

    august

     

    A near-normal month statistically. Hot days alternated with cooler unsettled conditions when hail and thunderstorms affected many places. Mostly wet in south-east England and East Anglia.

    1st to 9th After a very warm start it became unsettled and cooler as low pressure passed just to the north or directly over the region. Associated fronts brought frequent outbreaks of thundery rain and hail especially to East Anglia and the Midlands on the 6th, northern areas on the 7th, and again to south-east England and East Anglia on the 9th. Many funnel clouds were seen on the 9th with one touching down at Gosport overturning some caravans, while a waterspout was sighted off the Suffolk coast. Northolt (north-west London) received 56 mm of rain in 12 hours and another gauge collected 71 mm at Worsham (Oxon).

    10th to 14th Changeable with some occasional light rain and cool temperatures at first, however with drier conditions and good sunny periods it became very warm or hot over southern areas during the 13th and 14th.

    15th to 19th After a hot start, (Wainfleet / Lincs reached 31.9 Â°C on the 15th) another unsettled period ensued with thundery outbreaks in many places, in particular south-east England and East Anglia on the 16th and on the 19th. Overnight 17th/18th the Isles of Scilly received 48 mm of rain.

    20th to 23rd With pressure higher than of late, mostly dry, quiet conditions prevailed and with good sunny spells in most areas, temperatures rose into the warm category generally.

    24th to 26th Light southerly winds brought hot humid conditions to most places on the 24th and 25th, when London approached 32 °C, exceeding the August bank holiday Saturday record of 31 °C set in 1943. However a weak cold front already astride western areas moved hesitantly eastwards producing thunderstorms later on the 25th and during the 26th, mostly over the Midlands, south-east England and East Anglia.

    27th to 29th An anticyclonic interlude brought mainly sunny dry and warm weather to the bulk of the region.

    30th to 31st As low pressure transferred to the south North Sea, NW winds brought cooler showery conditions, some of the showers were heavy and accompanied by hail and thunder.

     

    september

     

    Generally unsettled. Wet spells alternated with quieter, drier interludes. Drier and sunnier in the south-west . Very wet in eastern England and East Anglia.

    1st to 5th After a mainly dry start it became rather cool, wet and unsettled with bands of rain or showers crossing the region from the west or north-west. Some of the showers were heavy and thundery at times especially in the north and east. Some sheltered places along the English Channel coast were rather warm at first, Southampton and Torquay reaching 23 Â°C.

    6th to 11th Changeable and mainly dry weather prevailed over the region sandwiched between a complex area of low pressure over Scandinavia and high pressure to the south-west of Ireland. The fresh north-westerly airstream from the Iceland region brought good sunny periods, with southern counties benefiting the most. Southsea reached 23.1 Â°C on the 7th. Any light rain or showers were confined to northern and eastern counties.

    12th to 13th Very wet and windy as a deep low near Iceland moved southeast to the southern North Sea. Buxton in Derbyshire only reached 11 Â°C on the 13th.

    14th to 16th Mostly rather cool and changeable, with good sunny periods, especially in the south. North-eastern areas and East Anglia saw some showers from time to time.

    17th to 19th Unsettled with heavy rain at times, particularly in eastern areas, East Anglia and south-east England, as a depression moved south-westwards from Denmark. Gusts over 40 knots were experienced near the Wash.

    20th to 22nd A quieter period ensued, allowing some local mist and fog patches to form overnight. It was mostly rather cool with some isolated light rain or showers. Western areas were warmer, sunnier and drier.

    23rd to 25th More wet and unsettled weather over northern and eastern areas including the Midlands and East Anglia. Fairly widespread rain and showers, some heavy with thunder, broke out. Showers affected southern areas later. Many places had mist and fog patches which were slow to clear on occasions.

    26th to 30th After a dry start, a deepening complex low pressure system west of Ireland brought increasing spells of rain and showers to many parts, the showers becoming heavy and thundery in places later. However it was mostly warm with London touching 24 Â°C on the 28th. A gust of 63 knots was recorded at Aberdaron (Lleyn Peninsula) during the 30th.

    Hi, I mentioned earlier I am travelling up tonight to Nottingham and tomorrow we have 3 coaches with girls on leaving Croydon at 745am are we still expecting snow or have we had a downgrade

    Upgrade, Amber warning now for Nottingham so Met office still expecting snow

    Sorry tried to copy and paste reply? Don't know what happened

  5. Well Dazz i think you should leave early if you can, really depends on if the place you are going to is high up as high ground is really bad already.. best thing for you to do is keep an eye on the BBC weather page and if it looks bad please dont attempt to go out in it.

    We are heading to the capital fm arena leaving Croydon about7pm tonight

    Staying in town centre

    We have 3 coach loads of girls going up Saturday leaving Croydon at 745am
