  1. Well that classic spring weather for you, feels like summer one day then your back into thinking its winter just 24hrs later!

    The benefit this time round is it does look like most of the more organised features will come through during the overnight hours. for example the GFS brings down a weak frontal feature and a trough behind it in the overnight hours.

    I think the way to sum up this cold spell will be night-time showers/systems will likely be of snow whilst daytime will probably see a wintry mix...I myself have 1 eye on Sunday night...I'll explain why later.

    ive just got over a bad cold, had to have time off work, with these rapid change in temps, going from cooking in my bus to freezing cold, Iam thinking iam gonna be ill again, as I really feel the cold :nea:

  2. Wow what a fab day weather wise, cant believe no one has said anything about it???

    Started of around 11:30 with the most brilliant convection happening over the north downs (kent) lovely white clouds mixed with jet black , I wish I could of taken some photos but alas I was working :)

    temp was around 8c with sunshine

    I got to Gillingham around 1pm, over head was the darkest cloud ive seen in a while, suddenly the heavens opened and hail fell from the sky, it belted down.. temp there had suddenly dropped to 5c!

    I then drove to rainham watching as the cloud was slightly up ahead, then had a up close and personal view of a brilliant CG lightning, followed closely by loud crack of thunder!

    I then went back up to Bredhurst (top of the north downs) where the temp had been 8c just over an hour ago, to find it white, the fields covered in white slush from the hail, temp up there was now 3c!!!!!

    Got some pics below of when I was on my way home from work.. this is a view of bluebell hill.. taken around 2:45pm

  3. well nearly 24hours of rain here too, think its might be just spitting now but not sure, its so dark outside.. the wind has really picked up within the last few hours, quite gusty!!! temp been slowly dropping too since 1pm...

  4. There was 2 storms in July 2007 that I captured, one was on the 3rd July 2007 at around 3pm.. it travelled along the north kent coast traveling ESE, the photo's I have are from Sittingbourne & Detling hill looking towards the isle of sheppy.. (see photos)

    The other storm I got was on the 9th July 2007, took some footage on my mobile..
