  1. I spoke way too soon. It's absolutely pouring down now. The showers are coming from the West and seem to have intensified over the last 30 minutes. Temp has dropped a little to 15.9C and there's no real wind associated with the showery activity.
  2. Mostly cloudy here in SE Wales, but a few sunny periods from time to time. Temp 16.7C 1010 hPa rising Almost no wind
  3. I've seen 4 separate individual over the last week here between Newport and Chepstow. Each one was resting, one on the top of a tree, the other three on telephone lines.
  4. From BBC news ticker just received: Seven killed as tornado hits town in Kansas, US.
  5. Mike you should get there OK via Motorways and A40, but Monmouth is pretty hilly away from the river, so if you were going up there, could be a problem as snow is much worse higher up. Alan
  6. Around weds/thurs I see 500mb temps of circa -30C and 850mb temps of circa -5C, do we really think this is conducive to a major snow event? From my past observations I've always looked for -35 to -40C at 500mb and -10 at 850mb for a real risk of decent snow. Am I wrong?
  7. Wet and miserable out , windy too from SW. Temperature has jumped noticeably since about 2pm from (then) 8°C to (now) nearly 12°C. Pressure up and down like a yoyo, currently 996mb and rising.
  8. A getting worse sort of day. It has got really grey over the last hour and the rain is just about starting. Pressure 999mb and dropping Temperature 7.4ºC and falling Wind Southerly and rising slightly
  9. It's thoroughly wet and miserable here in SE Wales today. Grey, misty (vis about 2 miles), and wet, with 7mm of rain already having fallen this morning. Mild with it at 9 ºC and wind not particularly strong from the SSW
  10. A very wet, dark and miserable afternoon. The pressure has just stopped falling and is looking upwards again. Had a gust of 32mph about half an hour go, but wind has eased a little, now 10mph. Pressure reached 1006mb but now 1007mb. Temperature falling, now 9.7C; dew point falling like a stone from 10C to 5.5C in half an hour.
  11. Temperature in double figures: Now 10.3C +0.8C/hr Pressure falling quite rapidly: 1013mb -1.6mb/hr Wind relatively light: ~6mph backing SSE to SE Cloudy with good visibility. Dry
  12. Thanks for that P3. I guess I had been a touch lazy in not checking all the info out. However I was really referencing the "information" link on the previous post :blush: which certainly didn't tell all the story.
  13. The information shown in the link doesn't actually predict what the CO2 will be in 2100, although a graph is shown predicting the temperature to 2100. I would like to have seen what the mathematical correlation between the two was between roughly 1800 and 2000 which takes in the period when the CO2 started to rise. From observation alone of the graphs, the CO2 rise is exponential but global temperature rise linear. What sort of correlation coefficient is there? I don't expect an answer from here, but it does beg the question.
