Very humid now

West Midlands regional temperature record now at 39*C
Birmingham record now at 37*C
Wow, we actually have some rain falling. Very strange feeling given how warm and humid it now is
-
Well it looks like the maximum temperature for Birmingham was around 37*C which was the same as the MO website predictions
Although the Tuesday Afternoon Forecast video was a quite a bit too eager!

According to local personal weather stations I reached just shy of 38*C (37.8)
The official weather stations:
- Birmingham Airport topped out at 37*C
- Coleshill 39*C
Don't know what the previous Birmingham record was but I assume it has been beaten
M.O were a bit too eager for temps. There actual website forecasts were correct but this snap from today's forecast was a bit too high!

I would have preferred to experience a Cold Alert Level 4 but I suppose this will have to do!

Pretty much the entire inland central and eastern England at 40 or above...
I absolutely hate and despise any remotely warm weather. But I think we may as well go all in now! Where is the red warning?

Few flakes falling, another day of falling snow in what has been a miserable winter (in terms of snow!)

I can understand why Emma, but why Arwen?

5 year anniversary of Storm Doris, remains the most significant wind event for the Midlands for some time. Hopefully another Doris happens soon!
Has Birmingham ever achieved a wind gust in the 70's?

Sleet here, a shame this didn't arrive during the night, anyway, what ever happens it won't be enough to redeem this 'winter'.
I received the most snow this season, during November

A great tweet thread comparing against past storms, that I'm sure many will find interesting.
Based on the windspeed data for Brum (Coleshill) Eunice beats:
- Katie
- St Jude
- Valentine
This is of course not representative of everywhere in the country or Midlands. Doris, Ciara remain those which stand out to me in recent years.

A very disappointing event, I was hoping for 70mph+ gusts with the chance to experience a sting jet.
Still not as crushing as if it had been a snow event

Very noisy at Heathrow now, on Big Jet TV. Every plane coming in at the moment is on the go around!
Always great to watch, a BA Dreamliner made 3 attempts to land and now is diverting to Geneva, Switzerland - wouldn't want to be on that flight!

Meanwhile the sting jet is *back* on the ARPEGE 18Z
Here are the charts with wind values attached:
I thought the sting jet would never come back

The GFS looks like quite a big downgrade to me, inland areas mostly in the 60s with only coastal areas reaching 80 mph...
I agree at least for those wanting to experience strong winds and a possible sting jet ARPEGE keeps the hope alive

GFS seems to have further downgraded the winds - quite a bit lower compared to what other models are showing
