  1. Why anyone would object to weather warnings because of political correctness’ or any other such nonsense is quite the mystery.
  2. On the other hand, just think how dull netweather Sweden or netweather Poland must be during the winter…
  3. Cracking day here again, and the forecast for the next few days is lovely, 21-24 degrees and mainly sunny. I like the anticipation and build up to an extreme event like last year’s heatwave, but the experience itself was hellish. I’m pretty chuffed it looks like we’ll escape that this year, looking how S Europe have got on, it may be one of the last years we do.
  4. I love my hot sunny weather, but nevertheless charts like these really worry me. From my layman’s knowledge the oceans have done a great job in absorbing a lot of the heat from ACG. If they’re becoming anomalously warm then obviously their ability to do that is reduced. Feedback loops under those circumstances are very much not our friend.
  5. After yesterday’s lovely sunshine, more dross off the North Sea making it feel more like March than June. Given the high doesn’t seem to move too much, why are we getting such stark differences in conditions from day to day? What influences how far inland the cloud cover gets and how fast it is to retreat during the day?
  6. For all the justified moaning about the endless nor easterly it must be said that where and when the sun does appear the conditions are pretty much perfect; gentle breeze, reasonable temps, cool nights. The cycling today in Shropshire/Mid Wales was fantastic. Apparently picking up tomorrow in Lincs/E England so thumbs up all round.
  7. Well I’ve made the long trek over from Lincs to Shropshire/Welsh border for some decent cycling weather.. and it’s cloudy and cool here as well, not expected to break until 3/4 o clock. The North Sea really is a killjoy isn’t it?
  8. ‘The WMO released its State of the Global Climate report for 2022 this week, which again highlighted the ongoing rise in global temperatures. But despite this, individual regions can still be colder than average, as the UK will be into next week. Read the full update here’ Haha if anything sums up the UKs weather better than this I’ve yet to see it. Also ‘New Ice Age upon us, but UK winter temperatures stay above normal’.
  9. Apologies if this has been asked and answered before, but is there anything about climate change that leads to weather patterns getting ‘locked in’ as anecdotally that’s what seems to be happening?
  10. Does this winter forever discredit the phrase ‘get the cold in and snow will follow’? We’ve had lots of cold weather, about 24 flakes of snow.
  11. I look in horror at the mod thread and the enthusiasm for a possible cold April. As far as I’m concerned, April is a spring month and I want spring weather. The days are too long for lingering Winter gloom.
  12. SAW MY FIRST SNOWFLAKES OF WINTER TODAY!! Precisely 23 of em. I counted. Wintry Nirvana is here.
  13. Before I knew anything about weather models I would have said anecdotally that this country is often freezing cold in the winter but only rarely gets a decent amount of snow. With climate change we’re seeing less of the former and much less of the latter so the current output is definitely a bonus, but snow would be fantastic at this time of year.
  14. I suppose it’s possible to be massively looking forward to some proper winter weather AND have concern for the most vulnerable, AND fret about bills, AND worry about whether gas/electric might be rationed. In the binary world of the internet it is sometimes forgotten that you can have more than one thought at a time.
  15. Like everyone else, I remember all the excitement pre Christmas last year. Is it a similar set up this year or completely different ? More likely, or should we be preparing for more disappointment?
  16. August bank holiday is the worst bank holiday. Signals the end of summer, longer nights and more spiders. Plus this year we have the added terror of gas bills we might have to sell a kidney to be able to pay. I’m not sure I’ll be welcoming those ‘nailed on’ easterlies this year.
  17. The models seemingly set on extending the dry weather. Is there anything about climate change which suggests that weather will get ‘stuck’ more often? Certainly anecdotally it appears that nowadays we have feast or famine when it comes to dry warm/cool wet spells.
  18. Fair play to the models. Lincolnshire has been touted as one of the places to set the record for quite some time.
  19. Jeez, yesterday was manageable, outside today is like a furnace, literally it appears in some areas. I’m as much of a sun lover as the next man, but take this away, please.
  20. That guy talks rubbish on a whole variety of issues but here he makes whatever point he thinks he’s making by…showing weather forecasts with different graphics? When is the forecast on the left even from? You can choose to be alarmed or not by 40 degrees in the UK, but let’s not pretend it wouldn’t always have been a newsworthy event.
  21. The Met Office app still saying 36 for London on Tuesday…
