  1. Couldn't agree more, possibly the worst "summer" I can remember in NE Essex and I've lived through many.
  2. Meteox.com radar showing more activity in North Sea and over the near continent.
  3. Darker skies and heavier snow flurries verging on light snow in Far North East Essex. Unexpected.
  4. North East Essex here, 3 miles from Suffolk border, been snowing heavily here since 6.15pm now 6cm of laying snow. Make of that what you will, radar returns are practically useless in determining what is falling.
  5. I'm under the blob, Essex Suffolk border 10 miles from the coast. Don't get excited, light snow blowing in the wind. NOT a disaster zone.
  6. ooh unexpected light snow.... edit: Now hail and snow again...
  7. good snow here in NE essex for last 15 minutes, settling for now, I know it is only showers, but nice to see. Heavy and 50p size flakes.
  8. There is an enormous lack of respect for other people in this thread at the moment. I suggest that if one doesn't have something to add to the model discussion with a salient chart or pertinent information, then do not add anything. If you don't like another's tone, life view, implicit or explicit opinions, just ignore them or block them. It is not up to contributors to put other people in their place, or "correct" them. Let the mods do their job. Leave the space for discussion of the models and leave the majority of silent and interested readers and learners with a nice set of discussions to follow. Other types of interventions and comments say more about the commenter than the original poster.
  9. Blowing up a hoolie here. The pouring rain is being blown through the tightly shut French doors. Things moving around on the deck in the gusts.
  10. I couldn't agree more. Although there are some notable cases where aid donations should be looked at with a very serious eye - India, Pakistan, Nigeria to name but three) there is no-one in this country that has to experience poverty and deprivation on anywhere near a scale experienced in the 3rd world. I suggest people go and visit a 3rd world country decimated by a natural disaster, BEFORE they start making comparisons.We should not be viewing this as an "either or" situation, as an economy we are rich enough to do both foreign aid and look after ourselves better. Don't penalise those who have nothing because we can't budget properly.
  11. It's warning of the storm and high water levels on the west coast.
  12. Indian Summer is a period of warmth after the first frosts. Origin is in parts of North America and usually means in November. But rarely applies to the UK. Nothing to do with September or October.
  13. Currently 24.8C and sunny, as it has been for most of the day except for one wee shower at about 2pm. Not a soggy Monday at all, rather a very pleasnt one, with that wonderful August light. Another delightful summer's day.
  14. Well now at 31.2 and still rising, and it feels much hotter than earlier although the humidity has fallen a little and the breeze is stronger. Will it get to 90F........probably not. Wish it could be like today for weeks, just my sort of temperature. (I so need to emigrate somewhere).
  15. Just hit 30C here, the highest record temp in this neck of the woods so far this year and still rising. 55% humidity and a SE breeze at 12.4 mph. A lovely day.
  16. Mostly sunny, 25C, 68% humidity, gentle E/NE breeze. Perfect July day. Good job one can come here to have a chance of seeing correct weather news and forecasts. All Uk media outlets got this morning's weather here completely wrong. Barely a cloud in the sky. Rain & storms maybe delayed, but they must have known that at 9am. I wonder how many people changed their plans today, only to be disappointed.
  17. Lovely warm summer day here again. Currently 26.8C, looks like reaching old fashioned 80F again. That would be 19 days exceeding 75F this month.Considerably better than the utter misery of last summer. Yup now up to 27.4C
  18. Well now it's at 28.9C. Unexpected. Will probably breach 29C, which will be the third time this year, tho' still not reached 30C. Temp probably due to the westerly wind rather than the nagging NE/ENE breeze we have suffered/enjoyed for the last week or so. Humidity at 45% so feeling lovely.
