SE and East Anglia general weather discussion 26/03/2018 onwards
daveinSB replied to Captain Shortwave's topic in Regional
It’s been beautiful here in Acton for the best part of the day, I’ve been watching convection reach it’s limit and drop away. But there’s the odd cloud that looks to be reaching higher now, very pretty, maybe there might be a shower over London at some point this evening. Looking SSW towards the Richmond - Twickenham - Feltham region, there’s the odd bit of convection that looks good -

Very spring-like shower here in Acton a few minutes ago, suddenly dark, then gusty with heavy rain/hail - and now beautiful clear skies coming in again. I really really want these cold conditions to verify, but if not, I could deal with this kind of spring weather ? -

Any chance that once this heavy band of precip that's passed through London and Kent leaves, that the precip behind will perk up? Or will we just have light snow? -

Absolute pelters on the Acton/Ealing border too, it's been half an hour of very very heavy snow, maybe 2cm in 45 minutes -

Now living in Twickenham (need to update location) = first pulse of heavy rain looks set to miss, but it doesn't appear to be all that thundery, oh well. Later however with the cells north of Caen, by the Channel Islands and the beast over east brittany/west of Orléans look promising , if not potent (french replqcement keyboard (French Wife), can't find the exclaimation point, but (and I'm a conservative storm type) -
Model Banter, Moans and Ramps Spring/Summer 2015.

Factor 50 should do it, but I'm more concerned about stubborn elderly relatives who want to 'enjoy the sun' :/ -

I have a wedding in Central Paris on July the 4th and I'm becoming increasingly concerned that no-one is taking these high temps seriously. Obviously they won't be 45/46, more like 35/36 but my family have very pale, typical English ruddy skin, and they do not seem to be taking heed of my concerns :/ -
Snowing in Leicester city centre Although very lightly at the minute
-
Looking at the radar track it looks to be dissipating just in time to "hit" leicester haha, typical! Bedtime!
-
Worth me staying up for it then?
-
Tomorrow's wind further south than predicted maybe? I'm staying up for the squall line, but if it's only rain and isn't wind-or-other-interesting-weather-feature-based, then I may just call it a night
-
I'm staying up for it to hit Leicester, could be a long night for me!
-
Sorry to quote you... but it's certainly lost its lack of breadth (whether that translates to any permutation of more/less intensity over more time?), and the radar at 00:30 from swansea north looks nasty. Also, the hinge on my ill-advised semi-open window just broke in a gust, but I think that's just the poor build quality of my flat...
-
I know, I'm hoping for the former for some excitement, just hope it maintains structure/develops. From a purely meteorological geek perspective of course, hopefully everyone stays safe. It's turned up a notch in the last 30 minutes here
-
Anyone reckon Torro's hint of a LEWP could be right, or just a bit of excited forecasting? EDIT: I'm going with the latter
-
First noticable gusts of the night here in Leicester, later could be the windiest I've ever experienced in the very un-windy city
-
xcweather wind map/forecast states 63mph gusts at its east midlands location at midnight - 1mph short of beaufort 11 (Violent storm force) - still baffled by the bbc's lack of mention of any inland wind risk? Granted, the wind speed most likely won't be that high, but still? Also, the storm looks beautiful:
-
Just watched the BBC forecast and they still aren't making much of any wind risk inland, making more of the rain risk than the wind, and then mentioning wind that might bring down debris from trees in the west, and then skipping 6 hours to mention the wind risk in the South East. Now I fully appreciate that wind speeds inland will be significantly lower, but I'm finding this omission quite odd given the charts!
-
Ok, so thunder now, gale force winds audible from inside, this continues to surprise
-
Heavy snow again in Melton now, being blown from a very strong wind that appears nnw
-
Can't believe the.temperature differential on opposing sides of the low
