Major Hurricane Lee
Bermuda Skies replied to matty40s's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
Hi all, just a brief look at Lee from Bermuda before nightfall. About 5 hours until peak winds predicted but it feels quite impressive, certainly compared to a lifetime of UK experiences. Hope you enjoy! IMG_1837.mov -
Hey, great thread. Been a member since 2006 but rarely post, I still visit regularly and read. Love extreme weather. I hope you don't mind me posting, I just moved to Bermuda, and since I arrived, they have had the wettest May since 1949 and it has carried on into June. The cumulative 30-day total is now 362mm. I am cautiously looking ahead to hurricane season and what that may bring!! Cheers, Paul.

Amazing views of Matthew from the ISS https://mobile.twitter.com/Space_Station/status/783044605893677056/video/1 -
Hi all, I've just left approximately 150k people enjoying a very sweltering Bedford River festival. From the safety of my home I'm looking at that system approaching Bicester and wondering if it will track north, south, die out or smash into all those lovely people! There appears to be a corridor of 1800kj cape and 6.5li so wondering if that will play a part. What do the experts think? Thanks in advance.

Disappointing night here but it looks like many got one hell of a show which is great. Hopefully this afternoon, evening will deliver the goods here. I managed just a couple of shots of the Milton Keynes/Northampton system around midnight looking West from Bedford and that was it! Not the greatest but i like the cloud structures. Thrilled that the my pic was used on the Site News though. http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=news;storyid=6025;sess=

Shoot in RAW if you can (to fix exposure later) and try F8 ISO100 and experiment with the exposure (10-20 secs depending of ambient light and any foreground lights etc) you also need to account for how close the storm is. further away needs more light etc. Hope this helps. PS focus on manual and try and find a light or similar in the distance to focus on, just back from infinity.

Woken up around 3.00am with a massive strike, just managed to get a couple of shots before it died out. Been rumbling on for most of the morning here. Looking forward to the main event later!

East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion XXXIV
Bermuda Skies replied to Methuselah's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
That band has given an hours good snow and added another 2 inches to the overnight 1 inch of snow. YAY! -
East Anglia & South East Cold Spell Discussion
Bermuda Skies replied to kold weather's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Awoke to grand total of 1" (2.5cm) which considering the strength of the Bedford snow sheild is quite an acheivement. 15 miles south and 20 miles west Bicester has 9 inches!! Gotta love the UK's weather :wub: Southern precipitation still just to the south of us but I have my eye on the band coming in over Kings Lynn which seems to heading straight for us and getting more potent. Fingers crossed for a little more throughout the day. Will the snow showers carried in on the easterly winds forecast for Thursday and Friday make it this far west? Enjoy the weather! -

Snow Watch: London, Se England & E Anglia
Bermuda Skies replied to grab my graupel's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Crikey that's come as a suprise. After last nights forecast (was it Darren Betts?) I had all but given up on any snowfall, woke this morning thinking, sounds quiet outside, toooo quiet. Sure enough 4 inches (measured at the backdoor) of fresh snow, wow!! Been a longtime since I've seen that here! -
Stratosphere Temperature Watch
Bermuda Skies replied to chionomaniac's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
I have been following this thread with considerable interest. The quality of the posts and the knowledge of the posters is first class. I found this website (sorry if its already well known) which may be of interest to novices like me and the more experienced alike. It has some very cool animations of previous events going back to 1953. Thanks again for this fascinating thread. Columbia University SSW Website -
Geeez..that was scary woke me (and the wife which takes some doing) thought the house was falling down :o

Wet snow for about an hour (turned to rain now), settling on cars and grass, slushy on the roads. What a suprise! :lol:
