Model Output Discussion - the cold has arrived
Gizzy replied to Community Team's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
The days start getting longer soon - does that mean a bigger chance of snow days lol. -
Well it has been pants up to now for my neck of the woods. Woke up to a few flakes on frozen ground this morning, seen plenty of rain and sleet since and in truth it feels kind of warmish out, certainly not as cold as expected. Maybe the next seven days brings the rewards but it seems like it is going to be cold rain and sleet to look forward to in any precipitation.

Yes I am very similar, nice to feel a little chill on the face but so warm other than that. It has been so mild !!

And funnily enough, your profile pic, the owl, last night with the window open the owls were really hooting in the wood behind me, such a lovely sound to nod off to.

Winter 2022-23 early thoughts - general chat
Gizzy replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
I just read the snow word being mentioned in the met office outlook for the North end of November. -
Anybody like me and just need the bedroom window open every night, even in the depth of winter ? Not because I am warm but because its so nice to feel the cold on my face as I am tucked under the quilt. Also lovely to hear the rain when nodding off or waking me up in the early hours. The only time I close it is when I get up on a morning or it stats closed if it is blowing a gale.

Anyone's thoughts for snow in early winter this year? The trees here are absolutely stashed with berries, my old grandma would always tell me that is a sign of a very cold winter ??? -
Storm Eunice - 18th February
Gizzy replied to Thunder and Lightning's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
I remember being under the red warning for storm arwen, think the warning was from 9pm. 10pm - windy, 11pm - windy - I was thinking like a lot on here, oh this has been exaggerated, early hours of the morning the storm ripped through like a train, really really frightening . Be careful what you wish for and I still think you are just at the start. -

Yeah I get the meaning about it but you can use different shades of yellow, amber and red - getting to crimson red for the peak etc. For me, it would just make more sense and more user friendly. -

You would think that whoever creates these charts would consider their colour scheme, since when has purple and pink brought more awareness/danger than red - would tie in with warning colours as well, maybe they should just adopt yellow, amber, red colours. But just a thought. -

PS - don't be putting yourselves at risk though if anybody does capture anything. -

Videos and pics would be good seeing as though I am in the north east where the trees arent even moving - maybe later -
