Temperature Record Monitor Thread
i luv snow replied to Radiating Dendrite's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Yea hot weather here in Aus is often accompanied by gusty winds so we are use to hairdryer winds (dries your clothes quickly!!). I’m coming back to visit UK next week and gutted I didn’t book a week earlier to experience this historic weather!! -

I still think it’s insane it’s happening in my native country. I live in Aus now and I’ve experienced 48.9oC here, when it’s hot here (say 35+) it tends to be dry, gusty winds from inland Australia so I’m use to hot winds now but never thought it would happen in UK!! -

As a pom in Sydney, you’d be surprised how cool high twenties can feel after temps of 40+ -

Looks like Guernsey hasn’t dropped below 27.5 and temps will likely start to increase very soon -

Yes maybe a degree. It’s widely 33 and a couple of 34s at noon, so it’s about on track I think. Let’s see what the arvo brings. Watching with some jealousy from Sydney where I’ve lived for 5 years now. -

Couple of stations (Cambridge and London City) are at 33 at 11.30 so it’s not far off! -
My parents have just nudged 27cm in Ipswich (they live in the NW of the town) - they asked if there would be any more, and I told them that as the winds swing more easterly, they might lose some showers to the south in Essex/Kent, but looks like lots of more showers moving in from North Sea hitting Suffolk, to add to those totals! My parents said they havent seen snow like that in Ipswich since before I was born (I'm 32).

This is my parents garden in Ipswich this morning, they estimate about 8inches/20cm of snow. Still snowing but only lightly, however I reckon they can expect another 5 to 10cm over next couple of days! I never saw that much snow in the 23 years I lived there with them!! IMG_2928.MP4 -

Lots of people in East Suffolk, East Essex and East Kent. The sweet spots have seen around 15cm already with a night of snow showers to come -

Certainly looks like it! My family all live in Ipswich and they’ve pretty much had snow since around 8am, and doesn’t look like it will stop any time soon! I’m in Aus, they had about 8cm when I went to sleep 8 hours ago, and it hasn’t stopped snowing the whole time!! -

My friends and family back in blighty (Ipswich) have about 6cm after a few hours - so if this carries on all day and night then fun times ahead. Very jealous from a hot Sydney! -

100% - its moving, just VERY VERY slowly. Since 8am, its probably nudged 20 miles at most, but it is moving. -

Love this - I live in Sydney but my parents and family are in Ipswich and have been sending me photos & videos of the snow there. I still follow the snow events even from the other side of the world! -
Do you live in Sydney now or are you on holiday? I moved to Sydney in October (lived here back in 2012) and forgot how extreme the weather gets. 49oC's in parts of Aus, overnight minimums of 34oC. 2 weekends ago, it was 36oC in Sydney at 9.45am!
