Yall ready for this Lol

Netweather Shows Precip Type and updates every 5 mins, data only 10 mins old Go to the top left of the page, drop down bit where it says Netweather Charts and Data Choose Radar Simples

Finally gone below 6c Temp 5.7c Dewp 5.4c Crikey was expecting it to be around 4c by now must admit, damn easterly, swing North Easterly please for the main band

Yh that last hour of Rainfall everything is under water again unreal amounts of rain since the year started. Am on 214mm way over 1/3 of our annual rainfall

Am hoping much better we did awful from that with about 4cm and an Ice Storm. Hoping to trump it by at least x3 on the depth. How did you fare out of that up the Riviera?

Pretty Boring here atm expecting the crashing soon hopefully 13z 8.2c 14z 7.5c 15z 6.4 16z 6.3c 17z 6.2c 18z 6.3 19z 6.1 Pretty Meh

I dont want you to go there lol But might be an idea to flit between the 2 and you will be affected when the breakdown comes from the SW moreso than us in the east. So maybe stay in both ?

Windsor could certainly be Central and Southern so why not pop in there

Cod Massala Curry with Rice for us Home made recipe blooming luverly

Must admit didnt expect silly season to start until around 8pm of people writing obituaries to a spell that hasnt even started. Knew it would happen mind you always does

Yep

In all seriousness keep an eye out for some strange skies tomorrow. Have seen loads of pictures from Spain, France, Switzerland of the Sahara Dust in the pictures of clouds. If this makes it north with the low pressure pushing it towards the Uk could be some strange colours of landscapes. Think Nick F touched on this possibility the other day

Friends in Holland say Wind is strong easterly now

Temp tumbling 13z was 8.2 14z was 7.5 1530 now 6.4c Wind now Easterly

That looks like Dan expects more of a NNE element to the wind and not ENE if the map went onto include Kent it would be the Mid Kent Streamer, places like Brighton and the South Coast would do very well from that as well

T MINUS 12 HOURS This is the best part apart from the Sledging tomorrow

Never going to get marginality with a true Scandinavia and Russian sourced Easterly. Watch those Dewpoints over the next 7 days they will be so continental and dry i doubt they will rise above 0c again until maybe next weekend and even then if the Scandi High strengthens as models are showing I would bet it might be even longer. Just dont touch any light switches or you might get a spark lol

All looks on track Udated 15 minutes ago and mentions Snow might be further North and West for the Regions BBC Weather WWW.BBC.CO.UK Latest weather conditions and forecasts for the UK and the world. Includes up to 14-days of hourly forecast information, warnings, maps, and the latest editorial analysis and videos from the BBC Weather Centre.

Take no notice of that The Yellow Warning also mentions the chance of snow amounts upto 15cm so the snow wont just stop from Chelmsford to Rayleigh (10 miles up the A130) so Chelmsford has just a good a chance as Rayleigh from the first bout Streamer Wise Rayleigh favoured over Chelmsford due to that small amount of Miles further south

I suppose it depends on what you yourself percieve as warranting a Red Warning. If you think its ok to drive in total whiteout conditions with zero visibility and 40mph blizzard and not put a Red Warning out then you may have some super Lewis Hamilton driving skills, but most of the public in the SE of England will not have the skills to drive in those conditions and hence they warn for the danger to life. Having driven in a Haboob south of Phoenix a few times I can tell you your heart skips a beat when the Visibility goes down to the edge of your bonnet whilst doing 60mph. Lets just see what happens later before dismissing the notions of red warnings being dished out namby pamby

A lot of the Impact is dependent on 2 crucial things though hence the holding from Meto 1. How Heavy will the initial Precip Band be as it approaches from the East and how far west will it spread 2. How will the wind vectors allign when the Low Pressure pulls away and will it be favourable for streamers which will have even more impact than the frontal band I would not make that call until the event is started if it was me

We should be well placed for at least 2 events out of this

I dont think some realise just how close we are now to a Red Alert, just 1 tick away on the Matrix now Red Alerts tend to be Issued as the event is happening or things are so firmed up just before the event is started. Some Instances of this over the years were the very first ever one in South Devon when it was apparant things were much worse than expected and loss of life was possible, or a few hours before the event like the Snow event in 2009. I know its a Sunday and Lockdown but if Blizzard conditions are accompanying snow there really will not be any visibility on the roads and hence a danger to life if travelling. Yellow Warnings now extended to Wednesday as well. I know some will mock this post as over exagerating but we are very close to the top upgrade now, there is a big difference to 50cm of Snow on a Scottish Mountain and Blizzards in heavily populated areas with lots of road traffic. Hence why its hard to get a Red Alert on Scottish Mountains

Yes things becoming clearer ref the changeover to streamer event setting up and hence the warning extention.

3 hours more than you will get tonight I bet lol Might hit the sack at 8pm tonight and get up at 2am
