Storms and Convective discussion - August 2023
Polaris replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I’m not seeing anything substantial in risk area London eastwards. it’s a very sad state of affairs that a warning is put out for thunderstorms for 1 clap of thunder - just look at this mornings warning. America must laugh at us. -

Had much brighter echos pass 2 hours ago that just gave boring rain here. I presume this is just another rain band moving NE? -

Just very very heavy rain here. No thunder etc. -
Blue skies and 26c Absolutely beautiful weather. Love my country in the sunshine

One of the wettest countries in Europe and its panic mode because it hasn’t rained in 2 weeks. I don’t get it, can only presume the Scot’s took their tops off to lobster up and whatever fires happened were human made, cigarettes etc. The ground dampness/ air temp etc is simply not conducive for a natural fire at present in Scotland. Not sure where you’ve been.

Drought? Scotland has suffered months of endless rain prior to the last 2 weeks. Other countries must laugh at us. Scotland has a few weeks of dry weather and temps of mid twenties (not even hot) and all of sudden it’s the Sahara

I spent 5 weeks in Jamaica July to August and fluctuated around 34c. Flew back to the U.K. with 30c and felt humid and much more hot and sticky. You must of landed in a freak cold August.

Model Output Discussion - 15th March onwards
Polaris replied to Cambrian's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
God I hope so. With winter weather non existent nowadays and soaking rains in March - I’m hoping this chart is one of many for a hot dry summer ahead. Can the U.K. get at least one season right please. -

Polaris replied to Cheshire Freeze's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
As a correction South is 90% of the time down to T0hr. Midlands place to be next week if any ppn actually around. -

Scotland gets snow? Groundbreaking that is… Looks pretty dry bar the odd sleet/snow flake in Leeds as well before the mild air sweeps in. -
Model Output Discussion - A cold start to Spring?
Polaris replied to Cheshire Freeze's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Good post. I remember only a few days ago that Tuesday was shown as LP/ disturbance running down from the north. Away from Scotland and Eastern costal counties it looks very dry on this Saturday evening for next week -
Model Output Discussion - A cold start to Spring?
Polaris replied to Cheshire Freeze's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
If I were living South of m4 I would be very interested in a possible snow event early next week. As 90% of the time, ppn always corrects South until +06hrs so even here it’s not guaranteed. -
Not expecting anything substantial here in Bedfordshire next week in terms of snowfall. Maybe a few wet flakes if moisture is present with cold uppers. ECM had the MAD thread praising last night because it showed cold, but now it’s showing a bog standard chill spell soon erased to the Atlantic it’s now wrong apparently

Winter 2022/23 - Moans, Ramps & Chat
Polaris replied to cyclonic happiness's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Just watched the Meto 10 day trend. Talk about a reality check. Completely watered down version of posts on the MAD thread. As usual the meto use words ‘chance’ potential’ uncertainty’ blah blah blah One wonders why they even bother if everyday after day 4 is a ‘chance’ no matter what the weather. Roll on spring.
