I am quietly confident that Stafford will see something other than damp and soggy this winter season

No thanks not here! understand northerners wanting it though
How about we find some way to stop it going any further south than Jct 14 M6, by the way a new work colleague from down south says any body living north of Birmingham is a Northerner, so welcome to the club

will this winter be like 62/63, god I hope not.
I live with in extremely easy walking distance of work and have no wish to spend my winter doing 16 hour shifts just because some half wit cant walk 5 miles to work.
It's cold and I can't remember how to use my legs BOO HOO HOO ETC, ETC.
I keep being asked to give them my mobile No, ERRRRR I don't have one sorry

Alaska still has a way to go I see.

Mods is beginning to heat up, I have my tin hat readyor should I upgrade to a steel one

8.2 currently with plenty of rain showers some of them heavy coming in from the S.
From my point of view the worst yet for October, 1-14 were so pleasant I kind of hoped it would continue, fingers crossed it will return to that.

I do recommend everyone experiencing a sub -40c at least once though it is quite an amazing experience and does strange things to your clothing as everything becomes crunchy and brittle.
couldn't agree more. should be on everyone's top ten bucket list. plus you get to see the MOST amazing light show that nature has in her locker

There we have it guys. We've finally sent someone nuts by moaning about mild rampers!!!!
Nice one Ian. I for one think that sounds like a well balanced, thought out forecast. With a fair chance of it coming into fruition. . . . Let the dream continue guys°°°°
Don't know about nuts but does have the ground work for a good sci-fi novel set in some post apocalyptic world.
-40 is ok if you have the gear but even the most up to date building regs in the UK don't cut the mustard for those temps.
I think my wife would force me at gun point to head for southern Italy.
Spent many a happy time in the Arctic and on the Greenland ice caps but alas can't get my beloved to go for winter hols in the Alps or Scandi anywhere at anytime.

Very funny Nick, good find

An overall drier than usual winter with hard frosts would be ok for me.
Of course we would then have to put up with Express headlines of Stand pipes and water bowsers at the ready after winter drought

I think i'll go for 12.6 please

Went for a lovely walk yesterday evening between 18:30 - 20:00, better than staying in and watching the tat on TV.
This morning awoke to stunning blue sky and bright sunlight temp just hovering at 9deg will take as many days like this as I can get.
Much prefer the light levels at this time of year due to the lower angle of the sun.

I'm a bit late reporting on last evenings storm but better late than never.
Storm started at 1705 with loss of light and boy did it go dark.
Rain started at 1715 and finished at 1850, total rainfall was 41mm for this 95min period.
I normally stand under the veranda and watch the storms but not this one, stayed indoors, way to many strikes closest was about 300ft to the west of my house. The noise levels that the storm produced was the loudest I've ever heard. Trees in full leaf took a battering from the gusts and most of the lanes in the area became no go areas.
It was awesome but also dangerous for any caught outside.

I'll go for 15.3c please

Just totalled the rain fall from 6am Friday until 6pm Saturday 37mm. so not as bad as I expected. Wind has been moderate through out so no issues to note on that score.
Glad to see the heat for next week starting to drop a little as I have problems dealing with it once it gets above 25c
-
Nearly time to go homethe weather over night has been anything but summery all windows and vents shut, fleece did'nt come off my back once, outside is just dull and dank
-
I'm hoping for a decent dry and clear September, don't want to think about October as it'll probally be a wash out knowing my luck.

well got up at 6am and expected to see a small amount but alas nothing.

My 252 plus your 104 would be more to my liking if i'm honest
Went for that walk, temps far too high for it to last long though.
Wind and rain this morning so i'll get my airbrush out and do some painting
-
Had about 1.5 cm here, but still has managed to bring traffic to a stand still in some areas, lots of bumps.
People being impatient pulling out of side roads etc.
Not at work today so I think i'll leave the car at home and go try out my new boots,

Staffs moorlands
Have been on nights this week, so my sleep pattern is totally up the swany ,fully awake now.
It's been a funny week weather wise but snow has not been lacking, plenty of rain showers coming in through the Cheshire gap and quickly turning to snow as it hits the higher ground. Low of -4 Friday night so got to try out my new hat.
Snow finished here at 3,30 but all looking stunning outside.
5cm at my place temp holding at 0 currently.
Will travel down to Stoke this afternoon for the big match looks like it's going to be a cold one so may add something warming to my drink

I have a weeks holiday mid January in the lake district hope the forecast works out.
A colder spell during late December is also welcome.
Putting a forecast together for three months is not something I would like to do in a million years so my hats off too Ed &Tony

Autumn - general chat, banter, moans and ramps

No moans from me about this October, unexpected yes but very enjoyable.
No horrible westerly flow bringing rain day after day, going out for long walks seeing all the colour changes as Autumn progresses in dry conditions has been fantastic this year.
First decent fog day yesterday more to come over the next month, still waiting for my first ground frost but plenty of time for that.
