Hurricane Matthew
wishfulwinter replied to knocker's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
Am I right in thinking that nicole is playing a part in maybe causing mathew to hit florida a second time, or miss understanding something? -
Winter Thoughts & Hopes 2016/17
wishfulwinter replied to Polar Maritime's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Really? And there was my bones screaming 1963 at me! But if we can't have either of those years I suppose I'll just have to settle for 1947 sorry, that was in reply to gavin hannah! -

Stay safe Snow Queen one. -
Been on a very long country walk today (pokemon hunting with the kids). Didn't see any at all. Not long to go for the conkers though!

Cherry pick away please frosty. After the most dire winter I can ever remember I'm longing to see more and more charts like this! Long may they continue until November!! -
Spring moans, ramps, chat and banter
wishfulwinter replied to Paul's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Yes knocker. It's a real pain you being this side...I have to keep changing threads every half hour to see what's really happening with the weather!!!! (Of course there are a great many others on mod thread but I do like to keep up to date on the wood shed!) -

Well the above post is not what I meant to put up. Sure I did that days ago! Oh well. Guess I'm as confused as the models! Anyhows! If we can't have a raging easterly then I'm all for an early spring. Failing either, then "wake me up when september ends...." -

7 months of learning blown away from the last 14 days of following the mod thread! Have no idea now if anything I thought I understood was correct or not! Add to that the sleep deprivation, the highs and lows(!) That almost drove me to seek medical help for bipolar, I've decided to take a break from model watching and get outside to enjoy the real weather as it's happening! (Of course, I'll peep back in tonight for a few hours as always!) -

Model output discussion - 1st December onwards

Aaaah! So that's what meant by circle of death?? Won't even begin to explain what I thought. No wonder I could never make "my interpretations" add up to the same as everybody else's! -
Hi all! Can someone tell me if I'm correct in thinking this el nino has peaked now please,?

Absolutely brilliant for us beginners. I will be able to use both the chart and summary to assist with my learning

How bad is your snow addiction ?
wishfulwinter replied to stewfox's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Found a forum on July 7th (countdown to winter). Became an avid follower everyday since! Not sure if that makes me a 10 or just a severely insane person with way to much time on my hands! -
Hi all. Can somebody explain to me what a 'super cold weather bomb is please? It's just that while I'm preparing myself for the next ice age, the million mile an hour gales and the fact that I'll be sitting in the dark freezing due to the shortage of gas/electric that the express has warned me of, I don't want to get caught out by anything I was not expecting!

Have you told knocker?!!!

Monday 2nd November General Weather chat
wishfulwinter replied to The PIT's topic in Weather reports
Raining.Thick fog..again. only November records being broken here in brentwood are in my kitchen from the 10 hour tumble dryer cycle!!! (Very unscientific I know!) -
Regarding madden. Is it just me, or does everyone else feel the need to click on the link and read even though we all know it's a load of rubbish? And surely when we click on the link that's good for the express? If so, then maybe that's why they continue to print the nonsense. What's really worrying though is that virtually every paper , even local ones, now seem to be following. Added to that is the fact that some genuine quotes are used out of context, but joe public does not notice that, they just blame the real forecasters when the weather fails to live up to the hype. Rant over!

Thanks knocker. That's tonight's reading until the small hours sorted out! oh! Maybe not so much reading, more watching!
-
In my ignorance I had never even heard about weather ships. So glad that link was put on here, really interesting to read and learn!
-
Absolutely beautiful here in brentwood. Went from central heating and duvet hugging last night to deck chair and lunch on the balcony today!

This is probably a very basic question to ask, but maybe because it's so basic I'm really struggling to find any info: the cold atlantic, is this to do with el nino in any way or is it something that happens regardless? Is it a regular occurrence over time? Is this/last year anything exceptional? Thanks in advance
