  1. It'll be very high, but won't have the surge element. Posted Image

     

     

    Well NW did state that the surge may well come down through the Thames estuary, I know S'end is facing the wrong way, but still the funnel effect may push the tide up a little? :)

     

    Winds look to be coming from a southerly direction right now, which is perfect for the Southend sea wall :)

     

    I'll try to take some pics of interest!

  2. I agree with you Jax, the Christmas lights seem to be up early this year, I seem to remember over the past few years that Xmas lights didn't seem to appear until around maybe the 5th or later. I went out last night and pretty much half my street is decorating their houses!

     

    Nevertheless I'll be up on the roof tonight doing mine, my house now sticks out like a sore thumb Posted Image

  3. With an ungodly amount of money. Posted Image

     

    Speaking of which I just ordered a kettle from Argos, and Shutl are delivering it to me within 2 hours, I'm pleasantly surprised as now I don't have to get the bus to Rayleigh. Posted Image

     

    Sorry it's not quite on the scale of the OP, but it's still on topic Posted Image

  4. 5.2c here right now, thinking tonight could be another cold one providing the cloud doesn't roll in around again.

     

    Only had one air frost here so far, but a few ground frosts now, haven't been getting them as of late, even though the air temp has been around 2c early morning.

     

    Pressure is 1024.8hPa and rising

    80% humidity

     

    Another sunny day forecast :)

     

    Minimum temp so far this autumn for my area is -0.9c

    Evening all

    Well today was a bit of a shock to the system, when I walked out this morning to take the children to school.

    After debating (me telling) my 4 year old son for 20 mins that he needs to wear his hat and scarf to school, I think the penny finally dropped when we left home! He still managed to have the last word though... As he was walking into his class, where I can't go he said 'I'm not wearing this at play and lunch time' the little so and so

    Been spoilt today with lovely clear skies, and a bright sun, which was quite misleading from the office window. When I went out for the lunch, that wind was biting, so instead of my ham salad roll, I nipped to the chip shop for some warm comfort food .

    Current temp 5c and a windchill of 2c.

    Off out for a run in a bit to burn off those scrummy chips....

     

     

     

    I'm feeling a bit of Deja vu going on here Posted Image

  6. Is anyone else having problems with the forum time?

     

    I've just clocked some of my posts, the forum states that the post at the top of this page was posted at 17:07, and then a few posts down theres a new post with a timestamp of 53m ago, then each post after that the minutes go down as normal.

     

     

    But my timestamp of 17:07 is surely wrong?! and other time stamps after that. Posted Image

     

     

    EDIT: Think I've sorted it, time zone was set to GMT+1

  7. Because it will have impacts on what happens to the general pattern I believe. It certainly won';t be bringing us snowmageddon.

     

    Ok thanks, this is because when a front comes in from the west it will usually drag with it milder air displacing our current cold snap, whereas a front from the north or NE/E would commonly prolong the spell of cold?

     

    Is that correct, sorry for my noobiness! Trying to get the hang of things

     

    PS: I know it's a lot more complicated that how I've explained it :p

     

    none, but ex tropical storms are in plain English-bloody sods to try and predict, they tend to scupper or at least mess up most model predictions. This is partly due to the huge amounts of moisture and heat they inject into the north Atlantic area once they move into that area.

     

    Thank you both, very informative!
