Sorry to read this. I hope her home is liveable again soon
-
A few powerful earthquakes today around the world, most notable being Mexico: 5.9 Afghanistan: 6.3 Papua New Guinea: 6.7
-
Think it must have been a local large bonfire someone had overnight, was a very strong smell when I went outside properly. Nice this evening, down to 13.6c which feels much fresher than of late -
I saw they expected it to break records, just maybe not by that margin. I think today is meant to be even hotter in France and some parts of Spain with records falling.
-
Overcast and still to start the week, currently 15c. Can any of you smell smoke outside this morning? It has smelt like a bonfire on and off for a few days but particularly noticeable this morning. I know there was some talk of Canadian wildfire smoke being brought over with the westerlies but not sure if it is that or not?
-
Agree, and now our current government wants to downplay and push back what was already a minimal effort to address climate change. Sorry for detailing the thread, always one of the more interesting to follow on the forum.
-
Yep, not sure that always feels right either. I think a shocked face would be most appropriate in most of these (I know that’s not a thing, just saying)
-
I don’t like “liking” these posts as there’s nothing to like about what is happening at all but thank you Matty for sharing. It feels like we’ve reached the pinnacle of a rollercoaster, have gone over the top and are hurtling down the other side with no seatbelt on and no way to stop what’ll happen when we reach the bottom.

Up to 20.9c briefly here today after a low of 9c overnight. Nice all round as not too warm but felt pleasant in the sunshine this afternoon
-
Very windy this morning, feeling autumnal
-
Actually had a short storm, nothing too loud or close by but still a few rumbles. Heavy rain for a few minutes, 8mm in about 10 minutes. Eased off already. IOW to Brighton looking like they could be having a bad time of it
-
Looks like Brighton along to Selsey could have a fun time shortly
-
Heard a rumble and can see lightning but no rain here. Your shower came from nothing in a few minutes!
-
Even the radar is lying to us - this gave about 5 spots of rain despite it looking like it should be a short sharp shower
-
Yep, I take a good downpour even just to clear the air
-
What’s that moving up right on edge of the radar? Maybe it’ll rain at least!

Storms and Convective discussion - September 2023
lottiekent replied to Supacell's topic in Storms & Severe Weather
Nothing here in the far SE, even the rain managed to miss us! -
After a lovely chilly start with a bit of grass mist, it’s been a horrible 25.7c here today. Looking forward to next week
-
25.7c here today (forecast high was 24c) and forecast 24c tomorrow so expect similar as today, around 25c maybe. Back up to 25c upstairs, looking forward to the weather next week.
-
It’s still so humid, 23.1c and haven’t had a drop of rain. And it’s 28c upstairs so that’s not going to be fun trying to sleep tonight
-
Already 23c here, it’s going to be very hot sadly. I’m just clinging to the mantra of it’s almost over! Actually got down to 16.8c last night but it’s shot up.
-
Just saw this on Twitter. A video of after the water receded in a nearby location
-
Warmest day of the year recorded on my station at 30.4c. It’s still 27c in the bedroom
-
This is a great idea; I’m so interested in how these events are linked and/or their downstream effects so this is an excellent thread.
-
I was looking at this yesterday! @Turnedoutniceagain was kind enough to start last year’s thread and @Midlands Ice Age always provides lots of info - didn’t want to get a thread started in case one of you were prepping something
