Things developing pretty quickly at the moment...
Don't forget to use the offer code UKSTORM for some good discounts on nw extra, the radar etc - offers end tonight...
hmmm is that 100% accurate as iy shows no rain in my area yet it has been quite heavy here
-
ummm I'm confused(not hard I know! :-) ) but radar wise it looks reall clear so why then is it looking all of a sudden rather black and a little menacing out here???? (not complaining ,just confused)
just what i was thinking the wind has picked up considerable here and rain quite heavy, wind is defo west of north too!
-
just steady rain veering on heavy here in ilminster
-
I honestly wouldnt even think about it.
The chances are that it will of died long before reaching here and we will just end up with high altitude mist left over from the storm..
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you print out an image and then photo it?
Did you know that the Prt Scr button next to F12 will take a screenshot of what you can see on your screen?
You can then open up something like paint and click Edit -> Paste ( CTRL+V )...

**** SPACE WEATHER OUTLOOK ****
Summary For February 14-20
R1 (Minor) radio blackouts were observed on 14, 16 and 18 February along
with R2 (Moderate) radio blackouts on 15 and 18 February. This activity
was due to solar flares from Active Regions 1158, 1161 and 1162.
Outlook For February 23-March 1
R1 (Minor) radio blackouts are possible through 25 February.
Data used to provide space weather services are contributed by NOAA,
USAF, NASA, NSF, USGS, the International Space Environment Services
and other observatories, universities, and institutions. More

latest update could be interesting!!

Jan. 27, 2011 MEDIA ADVISORY : 11-020 NASA To Announce New Planetary Discoveries WASHINGTON -- NASA will host a news briefing at 1 p.m. EST, Wednesday, Feb. 2, to announce the Kepler mission's latest findings about planets outside our solar system. The briefing will be held in the NASA Headquarters auditorium at 300 E St S.W. in Washington and carried live on NASA Television and the agency's website at http://www.nasa.gov/ntv.
Kepler is the first NASA mission capable of finding Earth-size planets in or near the "habitable zone," the region in a planetary system where liquid water can exist on the surface of the orbiting planet. Although additional observations will be needed over time to achieve that milestone, Kepler is detecting planets and planet candidates with a wide range of sizes and orbital distances to help us better understand our place in the galaxy.

update from SIDC @1317 TODAY
CHEERS
COMMENT: NOAA AR 1117 has produced two C-class falres, a C1.8 at 03:18
UT and a C5.7 at 05:31 UT. This region will rotate behind the west solar
limb in the next 24 hours but it can still produce more C and even
M-class flares. A new region NOAA AR 1120, with Beta magnetic
configuration, is rotating into the visible solar disk. There was a west
directed CME at 00:12 UT which is not expected to be geoeffective.
Aditionally, there are signs of a CME in STEREO-A COR2 beacon data which
may be Earth directed, around 03:00 UT on October 30. Since SOHO and SDO
show a data gap lasting several hours around this period, it is
impossible to confirm this for the moment. Geomagnetic conditions are
quiet, the CME from October 26 seems to have arrived to the Earth with a
weak imprint in plasma and magnetic field signatures. Nevertheless the
interplanetary magnetic field is elevated for the moment (around 10nT)
but northward directed, active conditions may occur if the field turns
south.

hi all
during todays 1831 bst pass of the ISS i recorded Douglas H. Wheelock (Colonel, USA) making radio ham contacts on 145.800mhz as the overflew western europe
i had forehand knowledge that he would be calling from this great site
there are static pauses in between doug wheelock tranmitting so please listen till the end
cheers

there is some debate as to wether cycle24 has/or will by 2012 peak ,this is done by measurement of the solar polar fields, yet another spanner in the works
