Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Big fish finger butty here with ketchup on it. Captain Birdseye would be proud -
North West Regional Discussion 3 June 2020 onwards
Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Yes hopefully better than last Winter, if you can call it Winter haha. Just a brief light covering one morning. Ok better than nothing at all but certainly up there with the worst I've lived through. 2013-14 was similar. For me I think that Winter was actually more disappointing though given the previous one was good. Hopes were high of a repeat. -

A relative in Saddleworth didn't believe me when I said how foggy it was this morning until I went on video haha. They must have been above it at 250m. -
The changing daylight hours thread
Frost HoIIow replied to Boydie's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Certainly entered the darker half of the year now. This ending in March. I don't mind the darker light levels. Better than the early June sun waking you up and the birds chirping like mad at 4am. -
First Ground and Air Frost 2020-2021 season

-1.4C here this morning. -

Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
-1.4C was the low here this morning. Been a while since it was that low in September even in this frost prone valley. Looking back at my records possibly 2005. -

Had a ground frost this morning but probably not as cold tonight. Likely to be more cloud here in the east of the region. Although western areas of the region could see clearer skies so I think sheltered areas of Cheshire near to Wales could be chilly. Possibly also Cumbria. -
First Ground and Air Frost 2020-2021 season
Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Got down to 1.3C here this morning. So a ground frost but no air frost. Still had a slight breeze scuppering it. -

With a January 2010 thrown in too. But I think I'm asking for a bit too much! -

Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Well it's certainly not been a washout over the last couple of days in this part of the region. A bit of drizzly rain yesterday and last night but today has been pretty decent so far. -

Some rain likely overnight. Can't remember when it last rained properly. -

Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Certainly looking like a case of making the most of the next couple of days before we get thrown into weather not out of place in November. -
I don't live there no well spotted but clearly know more about what's said by knowledgeable people over there on forums like these. And people in here are buffoons? I think that's a bit unfair. There's a lot of people in here that spend time & effort into the forum and these people clearly know their stuff. Netweather wouldn't be netweather without them.

Autumn 2020 - Moans, Ramps & Chat
Frost HoIIow replied to Seasonal Trim's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
After a sunny start north sea cloud managed to cross the Pennines this afternoon leaving a cloudy 2nd half of the day. Much cooler than yesterday as well. -
I've been on American weather forums in the past and it's garbage to say they don't talk about snow cover to their north because they do, they don't completely ignore it. Given the north is practically the main source of cold for the states as well. Whereas at the right time of year in the UK our coldest is from the east off the continent - sometimes as far as Siberia. Hence why it's talked about on here often and for good reason.

Got up to 26C here. Hottest September day since 2011. -
North West Regional Discussion 3 June 2020 onwards
Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
You were pretty unlucky today. I looked at the satellite and Cumbria was the only place in England with cloud. It was a fantastic day here though. Pretty much wall to wall sunshine and pleasantly warm. Yes it was a brilliant day, got some outdoor jobs sorted before the Autumn properly kicks in. -

Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Looking nailed on now for a surge of very warm air early next week. Although Sunday respectable as well. Summer having one last go? Could be the last proper warmth until April at the earliest. So I'm going to the make the most of it. -
SEPTEMBERS ... Just how good/bad are they?
Frost HoIIow replied to mushymanrob's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
To me September isn't proper Autumn. There's a definite "lag effect" from the Summer. Yes the days are now shorter but usually it's still pleasant enough by day, sometimes even warm. A bit like March isn't proper Spring to me. There's a lag effect with that month too. Can often be cold and snowy. Winter still hanging on. -
Do You Enjoy Winter As Much As You Used To?
Frost HoIIow replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
For me 62/63 is the pinnacle. I remember my dad digging us out, getting the snow away from the front door so we could actually get out. Everything outside completely buried in snow, god knows what it was like in the Pennines! We got hit massively in Oldham in that Winter. But yes as others say November/December 2010 was decent too. As was the previous Winter. Thought we'd never see proper snow again but we did. I'm thinking the same now actually haha. Hopefully the next one will deliver the goods. -
Summer 2020 - Moans, Ramps & Chat
Frost HoIIow replied to CheesepuffScott's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
It was a poor Summer overall here. Very cloudy, wet with only a handful of days with proper warmth/heat. The rest of it was pretty mediocre. Had one of the coolest July's for years as well. -

Frost HoIIow replied to damianslaw's topic in Regional
Not a bad day really for the last day of meteorological Summer. Cool start but in the sunny spells & light wind it felt pleasant enough by afternoon. At least that cold wind from the other day has gone. -

Got down to 2.4C here this morning. Certainly a bit unusual for August. Many a night last Winter were milder, although let's face it, it was atrocious for cold. -

A chilly one tonight for August. One of those nights with a good dash of booze to warm you up. Got a nice bottle of port ready to be opened soon.
