    Wind really picking up now here, can hear things flying around! Been chucking it down for an hour...sounds like hail at the moment but no way I'm going out to check! I fear for my she'd tonight!

    Thanks.......all the above posts are quality. Been tracking this system 44 hours since it exited Eastern Seaboard US. It has the potential to be really nasty here. Thanks peoples ^^^

    Interesting Jet profile. Note the anti cyclonic circulation to the north. East of Iceland.

    That's correct Eagle. Notice the angle is NW to SE rather than the current west to east. I think this is when we have a better chance of the Jet undercutting the high that is presently to our east. Increased chances of pressure rises pulling west from Scandinavia to our north. Result = bitter cold + especially snow nearer the lower heights to southern UK. Interesting week ahead for sure.

  3. Vigorous Jet-stream exiting the Eastern Seaboard States currently.

    Will be interesting to see how this evolves over the coming 7 days or so. 

    Instinct tells me that the Jet-stream will head south into Spain mid-month with height rises extending to our north then northwest plunging the UK into the freezer with the highest risk of heavy snow in the south initially then the east.

    Roll on thunderstorms? You got to be joking, they have become rarer around here than even than decent Scandi  winter highs......

    Sorry to hear that. We had six storms in one day last year. Quote in news “I don’t think we’ve had as many thunderstorms one after another like this before. We must have had six or seven and that’s quite exceptional.“

    What's this rubbish? Double figures!!

    Maybe it's more because this chart doesn't show cold and snow which is what your yearning?? It's possible......we could end up drawing an easterly, then SE'rly then southerly by middle next week. Nothing is guaranteed however much you crave it.

    Anyway.... lets have the GFS 18z :nea:

    Even though it is only occassionally, when the wind is blowing here this afternoon it is very strong, i would estimate one strong gust every 30 minutes or so.

    Yes noted here in Lowestoft too. A prelude to what's ahead.... going to be a bit dangerous tomorrow morning especially with the ground so wet. Won't take much to uproot trees after the recent high rainfall totals.

    My interest will be with any squall lines or heavy intense showers that will really enhance winds even further inland 

    Absolutely, more often than not these are damaging wind gusts in there nature when transported down from higher latitudes to the surface in convective storms and squall lines. Going to be a turbulent night ahead for many in England.

    As it happens the Arome and Arpege have also up scaled the wind over our region. 

    Looking a tad nasty for the morning across most areas now with widespread strong gales and damaging gusts. I really think Lincolnshire and Norfolk will see some violent wind gusts around 9 AM tomorrow. Maybe this is Doris twin sister........the terrible two!!
